Right now, more than 15 million music fans across the globe use Songkick to track their favorite artists, discover awesome concerts and never ever miss out. With over 6 million event listings, we’re the biggest concert service on the planet.

We’re a small, fast-moving team packed to the brim with digital expertise, committed to solving real problems for our users. Live music is for everyone, and we work hard to empower our community, add meaningful value and cut out the BS along the way. We do our best work when we’re happy, respectful and relaxed. Our values and work ethic have got us far, and as we grow we’ll never shake that small startup feel.

Live concert discovery and tracking

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform to help music fans track their favorite artists, discover concerts, and buy tickets all in one place. It aggregates millions of live music events globally and makes it easy for users to never miss shows they care about.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in England, United Kingdom, and the company is based there as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Being based in England keeps us close to a strong live music scene and lets us work with local artists and fans directly. It's also where we live and can best move fast as a small team.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка Songkick в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных Songkick (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде Songkick представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
