This is by no means an authoritative list of online booking tools. In fact, it may be missing a few players in the field. **Duncan Freeman**, the founder of [Band Metrics](www.bandmetrics.com) and [Indie Music Tech](http://www.indiemusictech.com/?ref=hypebot.com), published this list over the weekend. It’s a great overview of the many sites available though. I’m left to assume that there’s a demand for these tools and that some artists are finding them useful. Otherwise, a new tool wouldn’t be created every other day.

**10 Resources That May Help Artists Book More Gigs:**

1. **[GigMasters](http://www.gigmasters.com/?ref=hypebot.com "GigMasters")** (booking platform for artists and talent buyers)
2. **[GigMaven](http://www.gigmaven.com/?ref=hypebot.com "GigMaven")** (free and easy-to-use booking website for musicians; currently available in NY, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, DC, Austin, Phoenix and Ohio)
3. **[Gigwish](http://my.gigwish.com/?ref=hypebot.com "Gigwish")** (influence venues, promoters and booking agents by enabling an artist's fans and their local music scene to vote for them)
4. **[G2.fm](http://g2.fm/?ref=hypebot.com "G2.fm")** (an online booking community where bands and musicians connect with venues by sharing their music)
5. **[Live Music Machine](http://www.livemusicmachine.com/?ref=hypebot.com "Live Music Machine")** (get booked anywhere for any type of live music event, as well as getting booked directly from MySpace)
6. **[MusiGigs](http://www.musigigs.com/?ref=hypebot.com "MusiGigs")** (a private beta service that helps artists get booked by connecting venues directly to bands)
7. **[OnlineGigs](http://onlinegigs.com/?ref=hypebot.com "OnlineGigs")** (booking and promotional tool, and one of the largest detailed venue databases)
8. **[ReverbNation's Gig Finder](http://www.reverbnation.com/main/overview%5Fartist?feature=gigfinder&ref=hypebot.com "ReverbNation Gig Finder")** (search over 100,000 venues and clubs, and locate those that have booked similar Artists)
9. **[Sonicbids](http://www.sonicbids.com/?ref=hypebot.com "Sonicbids")** (the largest and most successful online booking service for musicians, bands, managers, promoters, etc., as well as corporations and organizations looking to book artists)
10. **[SplitGigs](http://splitgigs.com/?ref=hypebot.com "SplitGigs")** (a new social web-app that helps emerging artists find other artists to exchange and share gigs with)

Artists may also find sites like **[Eventful](http://eventful.com/?ref=hypebot.com)**, **[Meetup](http://www.meetup.com/?ref=hypebot.com)**, **[Bandsintown](http://www.bandsintown.com/?ref=hypebot.com)** and **[Songkick](http://www.songkick.com/?ref=hypebot.com)** helpful for locating venues and artists to perform with.

**Do these tools work? What problems do they create? And, for all you shameless self-pluggers, which tools are missing from Freeman's list?**
