How Live Performers manage Song Requests

How Live Performers manage Song Requests

Live performers thrive on audience interaction and energy. Rekwest empowers musicians and artists to accept song requests seamlessly, earn tips, and create personalized experiences while keeping full control over their set and performance flow.

The Basics

Setup

Before your live show, create an event with key details like event name, start time, and duration. Rekwest generates a unique QR code or link that your audience can use to request songs right from their browser, without needing to install an app or create an account. You can display the QR code around the venue using customizable poster styles that fit the ambiance.

You can restrict requests to your repertoire or specific playlists to ensure you perform songs you know well and that fit your style. Auto accept and decline settings help you stay focused on performing rather than managing requests.

During the Performance

As requests and votes come in live, you monitor the list and accept songs that suit the moment. Accepted songs can be queued directly into your setlist via Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud, or popular DJ software.

Rekwest also supports tipping on song requests, allowing fans to show appreciation and support your music financially during the performance.

Post-Event

After your show, send automated follow-up emails to thank attendees and promote upcoming events. Powerful analytics show your most requested songs and highlight audience engagement, helping you plan future sets effectively.

Endless Possibilities

Live performers also benefit from features like:

  • Building a fan base by collecting attendee contacts and preferences.
  • Pre-event song requests to prepare sets tailored to your audience.
  • Detailed analytics to refine your performance style and song selection.
