GigFinesse, a platform that connects live music venues with artists, announced a $3.6m seed funding round from investors including Bessemer Ventures Partners, with additional backing from Cosmic Venture Partners, amongst many others.

GigFinesse is transforming the antiquated talent booking market to make it easier for both artists and venues across the country to collaborate on live entertainment experiences. Independent live music venues offer a huge opportunity for up-and-coming artists or even the classics to perform for their community. GigFinesse's platform optimizes the booking process by removing the middleman to create a stronger matchmaking process that connects the best venues and artists. This also allows talent and venues to maximize their returns by leveraging proprietary data from event-goers.
