How Tonk works

Tonk watches the Nashville lineup for your exact dates.

Tell Tonk when you’re coming and what you like. It keeps checking Nashville until you leave and makes sure you know where to go.

24/7 monitoringSo you don’t waste your limited nights searching.

Tonk checks the hundreds of shows happening during your trip and narrows them down to the ones worth building a night around.

Proactive alerts + picks on demandSo a static itinerary doesn’t make you miss something better.

Tonk reaches you by text, email, or phone if a better show, lineup change, or popup drops. You can also ask for a fresh pick anytime.

Learns your taste over timeSo you don’t get the same recommendations as every tourist.

Tonk learns what you listen to and what kind of night you want—Broadway when Broadway is right, somewhere else when it isn’t.

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 around my trip dates?

Yes. Add your dates and music taste to get picks for the nights you will be in Nashville. An optional Trip Pass keeps watching those dates as lineups change.

What if a pop-up is announced after I make my plan?

With paid monitoring, Tonk keeps checking your trip dates for late announcements and can update your recommendations when something better appears.

Do I have to like country music?

No. Tonk matches your taste across Nashville—from songwriter rounds and honky-tonks to rock rooms, indie stages, and dance floors.

You only get a few nights here. Don’t waste one somewhere forgettable.
