Your Name
Up in Lights.
A link page points at you. A marquee puts your name up where people are already standing.
Music, dates, press kit and merch, all on a domain you own. Live in 3 weeks.
Live in 3 weeks
From the day your assets land
$2,000 build, $50 a month
Published, and splittable in two
You own everything
Site, domain and files, from day one
Next available build start date is Sept. 28, 2026
Four people decide whether you get booked
A link page is a hallway
It gets people from one door to another. That is all it does.
Every visit ends somewhere else.
On a platform that owns the relationship, keeps the data and rents your audience back to you. Meanwhile the people who actually book you are looking for something else entirely.
-
The promoter
Wants a press kit
Bio, hi-res photos, stage plot, notable shows and press quotes, in one link they can forward.
-
The venue
Wants to know if you can draw
Past dates, ticket links and an archive that quietly proves you work.
-
The music supervisor
Wants to hear the track
Without making an account, installing an app or waiting on a login screen.
-
The fan
Wants the date and the shirt
When you are playing near them, and where to buy. Two answers, one page.
None of that fits on a list of buttons.
You own the site, the domain and the files.
From day one. Month to month, no minimum term. We will not lease you your own website.
Six pages, one build
What gets built
Four to six pages, designed around your brand, not a template with your photo dropped into it.
-
Home
The photo, the next show, the current release, and one clear thing to do. Built to load fast on a phone at a venue with bad service, because that is where it gets opened.
-
Music
Embedded players for Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp and YouTube, whatever you actually use. Releases stay in one place with credits, artwork and links, so a new record is an update, not a rebuild.
-
Tour dates
A calendar you manage yourself, with ticket links, venue names and a past-shows archive that quietly proves you work. Add a date from your phone in the parking lot. No developer, no invoice, no waiting on us.
-
Press kit The one that books you
Short and long bio, hi-res photos in one download, stage plot and input list, logos, notable shows, press quotes and streaming numbers. One link you send to a promoter instead of a folder of attachments they will not open.
-
Merch
Link out to your existing store, or we build checkout into the site so the sale happens on your domain. Both options are priced below. Pick on the call.
-
Contact
Booking, press and management routed to the right inbox, with spam handled. If you have a mailing list, it connects to it.
Found by name, not just by link.
The site is indexed properly, marked up so Google understands you are a musical act, and structured so your name, your band name and your city all resolve to a page you control. A link page cannot do that.
No packages, no mystery math
What it costs
One product, one price
Marquee
Look like the act you already are.
$2,000one-time build
- Live in3 weeks
- Pages4 to 6
- Care$50 a month
Players, dates, press kit, merch and contact. One round of revisions. Live in 3 weeks from the day your assets land.
Paying for it
- $1,000 At kickoff
- $1,000 At launch
Split it if that is easier, or pay it in one go. The monthly starts the day the site goes live, not the day you sign. Month to month, cancel anytime, and the site is still yours.
Why $50 and not $250.
The business engines carry local SEO work, citation management and reporting every month. You do not need any of that. You need the site fast, indexed and out of your way. So the monthly covers the machine, not the marketing, and it is priced accordingly.
Add it if you need it
Simple merch checkout
Up to 15 simple items. In every Marquee build at no extra cost.
$1,500Included
Full store
Sizes, colors, inventory, shipping and tax.
from $5,000plus $150 a month
Custom section, one page
A lyric page, a session log, a discography deep dive.
$600no added care
Fan area
Login, unreleased tracks and downloads. No payments.
$1,500plus $50 a month
Extra pages beyond six
Priced each, added at any point.
$250no added care
Merch checkout is already in the build. The rest are quoted at kickoff, not discovered halfway through, and if one changes your launch date we tell you the new date before you say yes.
Care, not rent
What the monthly covers
$50a month
It keeps the site online, secure and fast. You own the site whether you keep paying it or not. Month to month, cancel anytime.
-
Hosting and CDN
Fast in Michigan, fast on tour, fast on a phone in a parking garage.
-
SSL certificate
Renewed automatically. You will never get the expiry email.
-
Daily backups
90-day retention, so a bad week is recoverable, not final.
-
Security and updates
Monitoring, plugin and core updates, and every license fee, carried by us.
-
Uptime monitoring
So we find out before you do, and before a promoter does.
-
Email support
For anything that breaks. A real person, not a ticket queue.
You handle the content. That is the point.
Dates, releases, photos and press quotes are yours to edit, because you should not have to email an agency to announce a show. Every build ships with a pattern library, so adding a page later costs you nothing.
Need us to make a change? $175 for up to an hour.
Structural work, meaning a new section, a layout change, or something the pattern library does not cover, scheduled within five business days. Most artists never buy one.
The floor, not the ceiling
In every build
These are not upsells. They are the floor, and they are the same floor the $12,000 builds get.
-
Add pages yourself, free, forever
New dates, new releases, new pages, from your pattern library. No developer, no invoice.
-
98+ desktop, 90+ mobile
Speed budget set before design starts. We will run Google’s own test on your site, live, on the call.
-
WCAG 2.2 AA
A launch blocker, not something we fix after a complaint. Keyboard operable, 4.5:1 contrast, reflows to 320px. The same live test scores this one too.
-
Enterprise hosting and security
Firewall, DDoS protection, malware monitoring, daily backups with 90-day retention, SSL, spam-protected forms.
-
You own everything
Site, domain, files, content. If you leave, we hand over what you need to take it with you.
-
Month to month
No minimum term. No website leasing. Cancel with 30 days notice and take it with you.
-
99.5% uptime, with credits
A published commitment measured monthly. Miss it and you get a service credit against your monthly fee automatically, not on request. Read the SLA
-
Published pricing
Everything on this page. No mystery math, no call required to see a number.
Three weeks, six steps
How the build runs
You are only really in two of them, and one of those is the first day.
- Kickoff Yours
- Structure and design Ours
- Build Ours
- Your review Yours
- Launch Ours
- Handover Ours
The one thing that moves your launch date: assets.
Bands are the hardest clients in the world to get photos from, and we say that with affection. If your material has not landed by the deadline we agree at kickoff, your launch date moves, because the next build starts on schedule. We tell you that in writing before we start, and we send a reminder before it becomes a problem.
Bring these to kickoff
Six things. Gather them before day one and your launch date holds.
- Bio: short and long, or notes and we will write them
- Photos: five to ten, highest resolution, with credits
- Release links: every platform you care about
- Upcoming dates: venue, city and ticket link
- Logo files: if you have them; not a blocker if not
- Proof you draw: press quotes, radio spins, support slots
Before you spend the money
When we are not the answer
Four cases where Marquee is the wrong buy. Better you read it here than find out in week six.
-
We are not a label and not a publicist
No PR campaigns, no playlist pitching, no distribution, no radio push, no “we will get you streams.” Anyone selling you that in the same breath as a website is selling you neither one well.
-
You have not released anything yet
Build the catalog first. A great site around three demos is money spent early. Come back when there is something to point at.
-
You want to look serious, but you are not playing
This works for acts with material out and shows on the calendar. If that is six months away, it is six months away.
-
You want ten rounds of design revisions
One consolidated round is the deal, and it is why this costs $2,000 and takes 3 weeks.
-
None of those? Then you are exactly who this is for.
Material out, shows on the calendar, and one round of notes you can live with. That is the whole filter.
Two jobs, two tools
If the music is also a business
Plenty of the people we build for are two things at once: a working player and a studio, a teacher, a venue, a production company, a rental outfit.
The act
Marquee
- Makes you look legitimate
- Gets you booked
- Music, dates, press kit, merch
- $2,000 build, $50 a month
You are looking at it
The business
Lead Engine
- Generates inquiries
- Tracks where each one came from
- Follows up without you remembering to
- $2,500 to $12,000 build
Both, then.
Artists who also run a business usually take Marquee for the act and Presence for the business, on separate domains. They are different audiences and they should not share a homepage.
Straight answers
Do I actually own the site?
Yes. Site, domain, files and content, from day one, in your name. Month to month with no minimum term. If you stop the monthly, we hand over what you need to take it somewhere else. We will not lease you your own website.
Can I update my own tour dates?
Yes, and you should. Dates, releases, photos and press quotes are all yours to edit, from a phone if that is what you have on you. That is the whole point of shipping a pattern library instead of hard-coding your content into a design.
What if I already have a domain and a Bandcamp?
Keep both. We point your existing domain at the new site and embed Bandcamp where it belongs. Nothing here asks you to abandon a platform that is already working. It asks you to stop making that platform the front door.
Do you sell merch for me?
We build the store; you run it. Link out to what you already use, or put checkout on your own domain for $1,500 and $50 a month. If you are moving real volume with sizes and inventory, that is the full store build and we will price it honestly rather than pretend the cheap one will cover it.
Why is this cheaper than the business sites?
Because the monthly work is different. A local business is paying for citation management, listing maintenance and rank tracking every single month. You are paying for a fast, secure, well-built site that stays online. Same build quality, less ongoing work, lower price. No mystery math.
Can you write my bio?
Yes, from your notes and a short call. Most artists hand us three paragraphs written at two in the morning and we turn it into a short bio, a long bio and the one-line version a promoter will paste into a listing.
What if my band breaks up?
Cancel the monthly. The site is yours and so is the domain, and every one of us has been there. If it starts again under a new name, we will move it for you rather than sell you a second build.
How fast, really?
Twenty-one days from the day your assets land, not from the day you pay. That gap is entirely in your hands, and it is the single biggest reason a build takes six weeks instead of three.
Twenty minutes, straight answer
Send us your act. We will tell you what we would build, what it costs and when we could start. Or we will tell you it is too early and what to do instead.
No deck. No discovery loop. No mystery math.
