Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 7 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Finding current concert information used to be a mess of tabs and logins.

Right now, if you need to know what's playing next, you have to start at Google Maps, then cross-reference with the venue's website, check multiple ticketing sites for artist tours, and finally compile it all in a spreadsheet. You spend 30 minutes just gathering links before you even figure out who is actually playing.

With this MCP, you simply ask your agent directly. It pulls event data from across the board and gives you everything—the venue, the date, the ticket link—in one clean response. It’s that simple.

Get Artist Profiles with `get_artist`

You used to have to manually search for an artist's name, then find their official profile on another site just to get a reliable follower count or social link. This was unreliable and time-consuming.

Now, you ask the agent to pull the data using `get_artist`. You instantly get structured details about the musician that you can use right away in your report or document.

What your AI can actually do with this

Need to plan a night out? This connector pulls live music event data from across the globe. Instead of juggling multiple ticketing websites, you can just talk to your agent about what's playing next. You tell it an artist name, a city, or even a date range, and it brings back all the details—upcoming tours, past shows, venue schedules, and ticket links.

If you’re working with Vinkius, this MCP adds instant access to concert data right alongside your other business tools. It's built for anyone who needs reliable event info on demand.

Questions you might have

Do I need an API key? +

No! Bandsintown's public API works without authentication using a default app_id. Just subscribe and start searching for concerts.

Can I find concerts near me? +

Yes! Use get_recommended_events with a city name (e.g. 'New York', 'London') or latitude/longitude coordinates. You can also set a search radius in miles.

Can I see past tour dates? +

Yes! Use get_artist_events with the date parameter set to 'past' to see completed shows, or 'all' to see both upcoming and past events.

How should I use the `get_artist` function to pull general profile details for an artist? +

This tool retrieves core data about a specific act. You'll get basic information like follower counts, images, and their social media links. It gives you a quick snapshot of the artist’s overall online presence.

If I only have an artist's Facebook ID, is it better to use `get_artist_by_facebook_id` than searching by name? +

Yes, always use get_artist_by_facebook_id. This tool guarantees accuracy when you search using a specific platform identifier. It bypasses general searches and retrieves data directly from that unique ID.

How do I find all the shows happening at a single location or venue using `get_venue_events`? +

You just need to specify the name of the venue. This tool returns every upcoming show, listing artists, dates, times, and ticket links for that exact location. It’s ideal for checking out local event schedules.

Can `get_artist_events` filter for concerts within a specific custom date range? +

Absolutely. You pass two dates in 'YYYY-MM-DD,YYYY-MM-DD' format to narrow down the search. This filters out irrelevant results, leaving you only with shows scheduled between your specified start and end dates.

When I run `get_recommended_events`, are the returned details sufficient for booking tickets? +

Yes, the output is comprehensive enough. It returns event details including the artist, venue, date, time, and direct ticket links. You get everything you need in one go.
