Your Music. Your Money. Gig Smarter.
Keep every dollar
you earn.
Riff is the platform built for working musicians. Solo artists, cover bands, singer-songwriters, and music teachers. List your act, set your availability, and let bookers come to you. No commissions. No middlemen. Just gigs.
Your music. Your rate. Your schedule.
Whether you're playing weddings on weekends, teaching piano on Tuesday afternoons, or both, Riff puts you in front of local bookers who are ready to hire.
Bookers pay a small fee at checkout. You keep 100% of your booking fee. Everyone wins.
Everything you need to get booked.
Get discovered locally
Show up when bookers in your area search for your genre, instrument, or vibe. Your profile does the selling while you focus on the music.
Upload your story
Share your bio, past reviews, photos, and videos. Give bookers everything they need to say yes with confidence.
Set your availability
You control your calendar. Open up the dates you want, block the ones you don't. No awkward back-and-forth before the conversation even starts.
Talk it through in-app
Nail down the details before the gig — set list expectations, venue logistics, lesson goals. All through Riff's built-in messaging. Nothing lost in your DMs.
Recurring revenue from lessons
Teach guitar? Piano? Vocals? Bookers can subscribe to ongoing lessons directly through Riff, giving you a predictable schedule and steady income — not just one-off bookings.
Built by musicians, for musicians
Every feature is designed around how working artists actually book gigs — without the gatekeepers.
Teach once. Get paid every month.
Lesson Riffers get all the same free tools, plus the power of recurring subscriptions. When a student subscribes to your lessons through Riff, you earn your full rate on every session. Riff's small markup is built into the subscription checkout, so your rate stays yours.
Consistent students. Consistent income. No chasing invoices.

Think of it as Airbnb for musicians.
Airbnb didn't make travel more expensive. It made it easier for hosts to earn and travelers to find something real. Riff does the same for live music and lessons. Bookers find exactly who they're looking for. Riffers fill their calendar without paying platform commissions to do it.
The music industry has taken enough from artists. Riff gives it back.
Your next gig is closer
