A short note about our site
You know that sweet party out in the country that you played last year? Remember how it started as a random phone call and turned it to one of the best shows ever?
Ok — maybe this anecdote doesn't line up exactly with your experiences, but as performing artists, we all remember the great shows and we're constantly looking for new ways to promote our art. This is what SplashTone.com is all about.
SplashTone.com is a quick and easy way for event planners and performing artists to connect and work together. All steps in the booking process can be accomplished with our online tools (even sending and collecting booking fees online).
And great news for your fans; not only will they know exactly where to go to find your upcoming performances, but they can get reminders sent to their e-mail inbox or even their cell phone.
So explore our site! And keep on rockin'!
