The world is a stage—

we are booking it

No subscriptions.

No ads.

Just $10 each, only when a booking is confirmed.

Union Station is the first automated booking platform for live music. Artists, venues, and agents connected instantly — with real offers, transparent payments, and no gatekeepers.

HOW IT WORKS

Booking Made Simple.

1. Choose your role(s)

Artist, Venue, Agent — or all three. One Account. One location for offers. Union Station instantly matches you with real offers that fit your needs, your minimum rate, and even DEI priorities (such as wheelchair accessibility, veterans organizations, and LGBTQ2S+ safe spaces).

2. No email exchanges. No spam.

When an offer matches you, you’re notified instantly. If you’re interested, click once — and only then is contact info released securely.

3. Confirm the gig with confidence.

Each side pays just $10 — flat, fair, and only on completed bookings. From planned tours to last-minute sound tech replacements, Union Station makes it seamless.

You’d never find them on Google. They’re not influencers. They’re builders. Lifers. Legends. The kind who still keep a metronome on the piano and a coffee on the desk. You won’t find their names in ads—only in the margins of greatness and, now, on Union Station. #UnionStation

No other job looks like this. No contracts. No insurance. No minimum wage. No paid time off. No retirement. No safety net. Just late nights, load-ins, unpaid rehearsals, tips in a jar, and the same old line: “You’re lucky to do what you love.” Musicians, techs, educators, venues—everyone in this industry is held to impossible standards with zero structure beneath them. Other industries have systems that protect their workers. Music? It has passion. And that passion is exploited. That’s why Union Station doesn’t look like any other platform. Because the industry we serve isn’t like any other industry. We built it for you—because no one else would.
For those who never leave the stage unfinished— who wrap the cables, haul the amps, fix the lights, teach the kids, write the charts, and chase the dream anyway. Even when no one’s watching. Union Station is unfolding, and we are undeterred. This is for every artist, tech, teacher, dreamer, roadie, and rebel who’s ever been underestimated.
Most people don’t realize this is just how it goes. Getting ready in a bathroom, lining up makeup on a sink, changing behind a stall door—that’s not unusual. That’s the norm. For working musicians, any room is the green room. It’s part of the job, part of the grind, part of the story. Union Station is here to support that reality—the everyday, behind-the-scenes truth of life on the road. Because wherever you get ready, whatever it takes to show up— we’re with you.
Where do you go from here? Anywhere. Maybe one day the band takes different roads. Maybe the van gets parked for good, and the late-night load-ins become memories. But right now—this moment under dancing northern lights, this stretch of road disappearing into the stars—it’s yours. You’re not just making music. You’re making something that lasts. With Union Station, these moments don’t get lost—they get lifted. So go as far as you can. Play like it’s the last time. And know that wherever you go next… this will always matter.
You could spend three hours on Facebook Marketplace scrolling through “gently used” gear that looks like it survived a house fire… OR — Tell Union Station what you’re looking for, and we’ll notify every music store in your area. No sketchy meetups. No mystery stains. No guy named Kyle trying to trade you a fog machine for your drum kit.
The stories. The bands. The bookings. The teachers. The agents. The venues that closed. The legends who passed. THE BIGGER PICTURE. We’re saving what would otherwise be lost. #PreserveTheScene #UnionStationLegacy

We didn’t mean to get into tech—we just had a problem to solve. 7 years, countless pivots, and a crash course in code later… here we are, dragging the live music world into the digital age, one booking at a time. #unionstation
