GigHub

A gateway to the local underground music scene.

New Brunswick has a vibrant underground music scene and tens of thousands of students looking for something to do on a Friday night, with no easy way to find each other. GigHub connects them: shows to discover, artists to follow, nights out to plan. Designed under designathon time pressure, by a drummer who knows the scene firsthand.

Your scene at a glance

The home screen keeps users up to date with the artists they follow and the gigs they care about most. Venues are split into three categories, restaurants, bars and clubs, and shows, so the card itself hints at what kind of night each event will be.

Discovery

Feel out the local scene

The explore screen lists every gig nearby, soonest first, making it effortless to see what the scene is up to this weekend. Liking a gig saves it to its own screen, a lightweight way to hold onto plans without committing to them yet.

Artist profile
Artists

A stage for every artist

Tapping any artist opens their profile: bio, photos, and upcoming gigs in one place. For underground musicians with no other web presence, this page is their promotional platform, so I gave their identity the most room on it.

The Night Out

Everything you need to show up

The gig page holds everything needed to plan the night. The "interested" button doubles as a signal in both directions, telling attendees how big the crowd will be and telling the band how many people to expect.

GigHub was designed and delivered within a designathon's time limit, a complete concept for connecting bands, venues, and music-lovers, where every party wins.
