Calendar

From this year's takings to tonight's day sheet

The home page opens on what you have earned this year, the gap to last year, your next dates and whatever is still hanging. There is no adding up left for you to do. On the night, the day sheet fits in your phone.

  • Revenue for the year, gap to last year, confirmed and on hold
  • Next dates and overdue tasks on the same page
  • Agency gigs and your own gigs, with filters
  • The days you are not available, blocked or read in from an Excel sheet
  • iCal subscription and mobile day sheet: schedule, directions, contacts, band, setlist

Music

Your repertoire, your setlists, your prompter on stage

Every song keeps its key, tempo, duration, lyrics and chords. On stage the prompter transposes with one tap when your voice is tired, and starts the backing track. Nothing to reprint between two songs.

  • Repertoire with key, tempo, duration, lyrics, chords and backing track
  • Excel import of your repertoire: fill in a sheet, check the preview, confirm
  • Setlists by drag and drop, total running time calculated, a sheet to print for the stage
  • Prompter with chords, transposition on the fly and a backing track player
  • SACEM or GEMA declaration prepared from the setlist, with composer, lyricist, publisher and ISWC

Band

Everyone knows what they play, and what they get

One email invitation is enough, everyone answers with a click. The costs of the gig come off before the split, and the arithmetic is shown line by line: nobody has to take your word for it.

  • Members with role and share of the fee: equal, fixed or percentage
  • Email invitation per gig, one-click answer
  • Gig costs deducted before the split, the calculation stays visible
  • Payout receipt per musician, to print and hand over
  • Day sheet shared with the whole band

Office

From the quote to the last euro collected

Quote, contract, invoice, deposit, credit note: every piece is numbered, sent by email, signed online and tracked. A deposit that comes in is deducted on its own, and the amount still outstanding stays on screen to the end.

  • Clients, quotes, contracts, invoices, deposits, final invoices and credit notes
  • Four contract types, concert, private party, residency and workshop, with an appendix for Luxembourg, Germany, France and Belgium
  • Your own version of a template, read in preview before it goes out
  • Partial payments with a history: the amount still outstanding is always right
  • Client file: what an organiser has brought you since the start, their dates, their documents, your notes
  • Sending by email, reminders, online signature and a Revolut or Payconiq pay link
  • Expenses with a photo of the receipt, yearly summary and CSV exports for your accountant

Profile and documents

Your public page and your documents for organisers

A profile in three languages with photos, audio samples and videos, indexed by search engines. The organiser opens a single address and finds the press kit, the riders and the stage plot there, without writing to ask you for them.

  • Profile in French, German and English, with photos, audio and videos
  • Public page found by search engines
  • Press kit, press photos, hospitality and technical rider
  • Stage plot editor and input list, to print for the sound engineer
  • One public address to give the organiser: they download everything themselves
  • Your logo and colours on your documents, email reminders before every deadline

Frequently asked questions

Does a Backstage account put me on the roster?

No. The account is independent of our roster. If you would like to be represented by the agency, send a separate application.

Can the agency see my data?

Only if you are on the roster, and only for the gigs the agency brings you. Your own gigs, your clients, invoices and expenses stay private. The agency does not look at them on its own. Only Backstage support can open your space to help you, every access is recorded in your history, and you can refuse it in your profile.

Can I use Backstage without the Pro plan?

Yes. Home page, calendar, repertoire, setlists, prompter, band and fee split, clients and client file, expenses, summary, stage plot and public page are free with no time limit. Only issuing documents (quotes, contracts, invoices) requires the Pro plan or credits.

Are your contract templates valid?

They are model texts, written for four situations and completed by an appendix for Luxembourg, Germany, France and Belgium. They do not replace a lawyer, and every contract says so in plain words. Your own version is yours to rewrite.

My repertoire is already in a spreadsheet

Download the template, paste your songs in, send the file back. A preview shows you line by line what will be created and what is wrong. Nothing is written before you confirm. Availability works the same way.

Does Backstage produce PDF files?

No, and that is on purpose. Every document opens as a page ready to print, and your browser saves it as a PDF from the print dialogue. The format and the file name stay in your hands.

How do I pay for the Pro plan?

You pay through a Revolut link, then we activate the plan manually within 24 hours. No automatic debit.

Can I cancel?

Yes, at any time. The plan stays active until the paid date, then your account goes back to free. Your data stays in place.

Can I export my data?

Yes. Invoices and expenses export to CSV for your accountant. Everything else (setlists, lyrics, day sheet, declaration of works, stage plot, payout receipts, documents) opens as a page ready to print, which your browser saves as a PDF.
