We’re collecting stories
SetBook is new, and we’re just starting to collect stories from the working musicians who use it. If SetBook has helped you with your gigs, your band, or your music business — we’d love to hear about it and feature you here.

Less time on logistics, more time on music
Most working musicians spend hours every week managing the business side of gigs — texting bandmates, building setlists in spreadsheets, chasing checks, copying gig details into their calendar. SetBook collapses all of that into one app so you can spend more time playing and less time on admin.
One source of truth for your whole band
When the chord chart for a song lives in one person’s notes app, the setlist lives in a spreadsheet, the gig details live in a group text, and the pay arrangement lives in a Venmo memo, things slip through the cracks. SetBook puts everything in one place, accessible to your whole band, automatically synced across devices.
Adapts to how you actually gig
No two gigs are the same. The wedding wants a custom setlist in different keys for the bride. The corporate event wants only 80s. Sunday morning wants the songs in the order the worship pastor decided last Tuesday. SetBook’s per-gig overrides let you customize every show without ever touching your master charts.
Built by working musicians
SetBook was built by a gigging musician who got tired of juggling spreadsheets, group chats, and separate apps for every part of the gig workflow. Every feature exists because someone hit a wall in the middle of a gig night and said “there has to be a better way.” The roadmap is shaped by what you actually ask for.
