Our customers love our software
Our management software is used by some of the best music and entertainment companies worldwide.
Brass House Entertainment • London, UK
" Band Pencil covers every aspect of booking an event from client contracts to musician management. They have thought of everything needed to help the booking process run smoothly. Game changer! "
MIB Band • UK
" Band Pencil has been revolutionary to our management! I love how easy the booking system is for sending contracts and invoices, and the online portal for both clients and musicians - I know all our musicians are loving it too. "
Band Pencil is thoughtfully designed for the purpose of performing music at events. I have always had to adapt other CRMs to try to meet this need, but Band Pencil is the best by far.
