Play it live. Keep what it earns.
eResonate streams live music from real rooms. Free to join, live only, and every dollar a performance earns goes to the act and the room that made it — on the split you set before the show.
Both? Pick the one you mostly are — you can add the other from your dashboard later.
Live is where people actually want to be.
Recorded music is flooding with synthetic supply. The room is the one thing that cannot be generated — and it is where attention already lives.
Live only. Never recorded, never replayed, never generated. Every show happens once — which is exactly why it matters.
The room goes live. Everyone else gets in.
- 01A venue goes live
Capture hardware in the room, a scheduled slot, a cleared setlist. Liveness is verified by the venue, not the pixels.
- 02Fans watch free, anywhere
Phone, laptop, smart TV. No paywall, ever. Thirteen TV-style spots in a two-hour show, and never over the music.
- 03Artist and venue keep 100%
Everything a performance earns goes to the two people who made it, on the split they agreed. eResonate earns on the network around the show, never the show.
What happens after you sign up
What could your shows earn?
Drag the sliders. Every dollar of performance ad revenue goes to the artist and the venue, sold direct by eResonate’s sponsorship team at premium rates, on a split you set before each show. This model uses the 50/50 default. Merch and Backstage Pass revenue go straight to the artist. eResonate keeps $0 from the performance — it earns from programmatic ads sold across the network.
Your show
Target artists — the top tier of emerging acts — bring 100K–500K combined followers across platforms.
Share of the show's spot inventory actually sold. Early-stage cases should model partial fill.
Share of viewers buying a $10 Backstage Pass.
Model assumptions
- Television-style spot inventory — a 2-hour show carries 2 pre-roll, 3 breaks × 3 spots, 2 post-roll = 13 spots. Breaks scale with set length (about one per 30 min)
- Ads never run over the music — pre-roll, post-roll and in-break only
- Spot mix 30% :15 · 50% :30 · 15% :60 · 5% :90 (matches real TV/CTV — :15 & :30 lead), priced on a volume-discount curve off the :30 rate (:15 = 0.65×, :60 = 1.76×, :90 = 2.4×)
- Merch & backstage scale with dwell time on a square-root curve (diminishing returns); the 2-hour show is the 1.0 baseline
- Ad revenue split set per show by artist & venue (50/50 modeled)
- Merch: $0.025 per viewer per show, 100% to artist
- Backstage Passes $10, 100% to artist
- Free hardware & software for venues — no cost to stream
- Launch bonus: +$1,000 per qualifying show — 8,000+ concurrent viewers holding 20+ minutes of viewing (time in ad breaks counts), max one per week, for a musician's first 3 months
