Live at real gigs since summer 2026

A request line and a tip jar that open your charts for you.

Your crowd scans a QR code, picks from songs you actually play, and tips to move their request up the queue. Tap Accept, and the chart opens as your next page, on every bandmate's tablet too.

Bribe The Band is a web app for live musicians: your crowd requests songs and tips from their phones, and the chart opens on your tablet and every bandmate's.

How it works

From their phone to your next song.

The crowd page on a phone: requested songs in the queue, and a Support Local Music tip button.
Step 1

They scan and pick a song.

No app, no login. They only see songs you actually play.

Requesting a song on a phone: a $10 tip selected, the card form, and the note “Happy birthday to Eric!”
Step 2

They tip to move it up.

Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a card, plus a note if they want one ("Happy birthday to Eric!"). Anyone can boost a song that's already in the queue, and every tip lands in your own Stripe account.

The request drawer over the chart on the tablet: Basket Case, $10, not in tonight's set, and Tennessee Whiskey, $5, already in the set three songs ahead, each with Accept and Decline.
Step 3

You tap Accept. The chart's your next page.

A bell on your tablet tells you how many requests are waiting, and it never pops open mid-song. Accept one and its chart drops in as your next page. Playing with a band? It lands on their tablets too.

Before the first song, and after the last one.

Printing a QR sign on an iPad: the sign preview reads “See our entire song list!” above a QR code.
Before

Set it up once.

Add your songs. A title and artist is enough to start, and you can add the PDF chart whenever you get to it. Build setlists with set breaks, then print a QR sign for the tables.

The gig recap on a phone: $182 in tips, 21 requests, 19 tips, 2 bandmates, and the most requested songs.
After

See how the night went.

Tips, requests, and every song in the order you played it, including the ones that weren't on the setlist. Money shows what lands in your bank after fees.

Playing with a band?

Every bandmate on the same set.

Each bandmate joins your gig with a code and follows along on their own tablet, with their own free account. Accept a request and it shows up in everyone's set, in the same spot, within seconds. Everyone turns their own pages, so nobody gets yanked to a new song mid-chorus.

A "Band in sync" line along the bottom tells you everyone's with you. If someone's tablet falls behind or drops off, you'll see it before the count-in, not after.

Tonight's bandmates on a phone: the gig code to share, “Everyone's in sync,” and two bandmates on iPads.

Built on an actual stage, not a whiteboard.

I'm Travis. I've played more than 300 gigs, solo and with a full band, and for a long time that meant a paper songbook and a literal tip jar. Bribe The Band started as my fix for my own nights: something my crowd could use from their phones, and something I could run from my tablet without ever having to say no to a song I didn't know, or dig for one I did.

Now I use it solo and leading the full band, with every bandmate's tablet on the same set. It's been taking real requests and real tips at real gigs since the summer of 2026.
