Bring the Gig is a new social platform for crowdfunding shows, like a Kickstarter for concerts. Based out of Salt Lake City, Bring the Gig is a way for fans put up the money to bring bands to their city by buying premium tickets in advance. If the goal isn’t reached the money is refunded, but if the goal is met, and the band is booked, general box office tickets are sold, and if the show sells eno
ugh at the box office, or sells out, the original premium ticket holders get a full refund and keep their ticket—effectively seeing the show they helped bring for free. Bring the Gig began because the founders were tired of watching artists skip over Salt Lake City and other smaller cities, and decided to take matters into their own hands by creating a service that would buck the standard concert industry system, and give fans the power to get artists they were excited about. Bring the Gig is premiering in Salt Lake City and plans to expand to other cities nation-wide.
