SOUNDFRONT IS:
An independent information and resource hub for Nashville’s working music community.
A place to follow issues, industry developments, meetings, events, resources and opportunities that affect professional musicians.
A documentation and accountability system for reporting problems, identifying patterns and preserving evidence when something goes wrong.
Not a government agency, regulator, union, or law enforcement entity.
Not legal advice.
No accusations published without support.
Submit a confidential report about a dispute or incident you've experienced (short pay, canceled gigs, unsafe performing conditions, etc.)
We confirm the basic information in your report
If we need additional documentation, we will email you to request
We will log your report with a case ID
SoundFront will pursue appropriate correction pathways (you may also file a report without a desired outcome if you would just like the incident on record for pattern identification purposes)
Outcome logged + patterns tracked
Q: Does this cost money?
A: No. SoundFront is always free to use.
Q: Do I have to go public?
A: No. Most reports stay private. You decide what’s shared.
Q: Why Is your website so simple?
A: Because we're not marketing anything. We're not selling you anything. No splashy graphics, no slick transitions or over-produced videos. Just straightforward, no-BS documentation to help keep Music City fair and accountable for its performers.
Q: What information do you collect?
A: Your email for follow-up, plus the details you choose to provide.
Q: What documentation do I need?
A: Anything in writing—texts, emails, screenshots. If you don’t have it yet, we’ll tell you what to save going forward.
Q: Is this a union replacement?
A: No. SoundFront is separate and can be used regardless of union status.
Q: Will venues see my name?
A: Not from your intake. Identity is kept private unless you explicitly choose otherwise.
