A booking agency with a difference. We are musicians that have done the hard yards of the early days in a band. Let us help you secure gigs and exposure! Half Brothers Booking is a booking agency with a difference. We have traversed the hard yards in the Melbourne music scene over the past 2 decades.

We understand what its like to be starting out and be unsure as to how to secure gigs.

We know the pain of not having a definitive pay amount for a gig that relies solely on attendance.

We have the contacts to get your start in the industry and help you along the way.

We WANT to see you succeed!

We have collectively booked bands at iconic venues and events such as:

The Corner Hotel
The Espy
The St Kilda Festival
The Blues Train
The Bendigo Blues Festival
The Blues Tram
The Motor City Music Festival
The Bruthen Blues and Arts Festival

Along with countless venues in Melbourne as well as venues and festivals around Australia.

We will treat our newest band / musician the same as our "biggest".
