The real Encore app: live music, found.
Encore is the live music discovery app built in Atlanta — one place where fans, artists, and venues actually find each other. Not a ticketing site, not a talent marketplace. The scene itself.
The hardest part of being a working musician isn’t the music.
It’s telling people where to find it. Most artists spent years getting good at one thing, and now they’re expected to be their own marketer, publicist, and social media manager on top of it.
Fans want live music. Venues want full rooms. Artists want listeners. Everyone is after the same thing, scattered across a dozen apps that weren’t built for any of them.
Encore puts all three in one place. Post a gig. Follow an artist. Find a room that fits the night. Come back for the next one.
One app for all three.
Most apps pick a side. Encore is built for the whole scene, because live music only works when all three show up.
Know where to be tonight.
See who's playing in the next few hours, sorted by what you'd actually want to hear.
Reach the fans already looking.
One profile, every venue. Post a gig once and it lands in front of the right people.
Fill more nights of the week.
When people can find the music, they show up. Encore makes sure they can find it.
Built in Atlanta, by someone who kept missing the good nights.
Encore is built by Zane Johnson, its founder. It started with a simple frustration: on any given night in Atlanta there’s incredible live music happening — in listening rooms, restaurants, breweries, hotel lobbies — and no single place to find it.
So Encore became that place. Every venue is added and curated by hand. Every artist controls their own profile. And fans get one app that answers the only question that matters: who’s playing tonight?
