Tonk uses what the group listens to, your conversations, and your feedback to find something everyone will actually enjoy.
Why I built Tonk
“If I knew about it I would go, but I don’t have time to track everything.”
I realized I was missing out on so much music because I had no clue how much was going on or even where to start as someone who was new to the city. So I built Tonk to watch Nashville for me.

FAQs
Can Tonk plan for a group with different tastes?
Yes. Start with the trip dates and the crew’s vibe. An optional group plan can combine everyone’s preferences into nights the whole group will want to join.
Does a Nashville bach plan have to be all country?
No. Tonk can mix honky-tonks and line dancing with rock rooms, songwriter rounds, pop covers, and dance floors based on what your crew actually likes.
What does Tonk take off the organizer’s plate?
The nightly “where are we going?” decision. Tonk turns the group’s taste into a clear plan, then optional paid monitoring keeps watching as lineups change.
You didn’t come to Nashville to argue in the group chat.
