For musicians

Release the work, keep the list.

sonder won't host your streams — it does the part around them. Sell the files, post the shows, run a supporters' membership, and keep a mailing list that is actually yours, all from one page with a 0% platform fee on sales.

What a musician can run here

  • Files, delivered.Tracks, sample packs, scores, and liner notes as digital downloads: the buyer gets the file at checkout, and free releases can be claimed without payout setup.
  • Shows, posted with the facts.An event carries its date, its place — online, in person, or both — and its capacity: free RSVPs or paid admission, with a waitlist when it sells out.
  • A backers' tier.Membership tiers bill monthly or annually and can include your downloads, your community space, or everything you publish.
  • A list with real consent.Email capture on your page counts a signup only after a single-use confirmation link. Unsubscribe links never expire, and exports carry each contact's consent state.

Questions musicians ask

Does sonder host streaming?

No. sonder doesn't stream music. You can sell or give away the files as downloads, embed a video link on a page, and link out to wherever the record lives.

What does the 0% fee cover?

Every sale — downloads, tickets, memberships, merch. sonder's platform fee is 0% of sales; card processing from your payment processor still applies, and sonder's business is workspace plans.

Whose mailing list is it?

Yours. Contacts export with their consent state, and withdrawal is durable — every unsubscribe link ever sent keeps working. Take the list with you if you leave.
