Sofar Sounds

Sofar Sounds curates secret, intimate live-music gigs in living rooms, small venues, and unexpected spaces in hundreds of cities around the world. The company connects independent and emerging artists with attentive local audiences through a mobile-first ticketing and events platform, and works with hosts who lend their spaces for the shows. Sofar operates a consumer-facing website and apps rather than a public developer program; probing its surface confirmed no documented public API, developer portal, SDKs, or OpenAPI. It runs a real GitHub organization (github.com/sofarsounds) of internal engineering repositories, and its production backend is served from api.sofarsounds.com (Heroku), but neither exposes a published, documented API for third-party developers.

Sofar Sounds is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Music, Live Events, Concerts, and Ticketing.
