Welcome to Jayebird Bookings!
This is a safe haven for artists looking to expand their horizons and build bridges to new audiences. Let's get the credentials out of the way so I can get to the fun stuff. I have a Bachelor of Commercial Music from Belmont University with an emphasis in Music Business. Along with this, I have over a decade of combined hands-on industry experience in virtually every realm from PR, Release Planning, Artist Development, Branding, Live Performance, and Booking. As an independent artist myself, I understand first-hand what it's like to sing to empty rooms, and get paid in beer. I'm boots on the ground with you, and I have the hustle to create opportunities that help fund an independent artist career so those songs you've been sitting on can get recorded.
Live shows are the life blood of the industry, and nothing makes me more excited than connecting talent with opportunities that create career momentum! With proven results booking everything from bar gigs, weekend runs, and tours, I'm here to make the process of booking shows as seamless and stress-free as possible. If you've got a show that I can sell to venues...
Let's talk.
"Jordan is an extremely hard-working individual, as well as someone who deeply cares about our projects. She knows our end goals well and has truly helped us expand and grow!"
"I have been working with Jordan, owner of Jayebird Bookings, for several fun months! She has found venues all over that I never would have even thought of. Because of Jordan, I got to experience not only different venues, but different cities and formats of shows. Jordan is diligent, very communicative, and an excellent source of guidance. I am lucky to have found her!"
"Working with Jayebird Bookings was a great experience. Jordan was always on top of getting me into spots and areas I wanted to play. When we worked specifically on booking a Nashville week, she was instrumental in helping me get into the writers rounds, which was the main goal. I definitely recommend working with her."
"Jayebird Bookings has been amazing to work with! I love Jordan's organization, work-ethic, and professionalism."
"I appreciate Jayebird Bookings for creating this in-road for artists."
"I find purpose in advocating for the indie scene because I know it’s full of hard-working, humble, and real people just trying to make a dream happen. They are people who want bigger for themselves, to break out of the typical 9-5 matrix. It’s brave, and because that world is so full of dreamers there are snakes lurking around every corner ready to take advantage. I’ve had it happen to me. I’ve seen it happen to others. I’ve learned exactly how not to run a business first-hand through previous work experience. Safe places in the industry are few and far between for independent artists, and I take great pride in choosing to make that my niche."
"I eventually got tired of knocking on doors just for them to be shut in my face, so I built my own damn door!"
"I found a love of the hustle and bustle, wheeling and dealing, and the general organized chaos of working within the music industry. During this time, I recorded a debut album with my twin sister Madison at Revolver Recordings in LA with Grammy-Award-winning producer Mikal Blue, co-produced by Dean Dinning of Toad the Wet Sprocket. This landed us placements in platforms such as Medium, Today in Nashville, and Tennessee Star. Along with this, we signed a sync deal with Rock Salt Music and got some exclusive spins in stores such as Abercrombie & Old Navy. Our band is called Jaye Madison!"

I book paid shows and writer showcases for artists. Depending on your exact goals and your location, guarantees can vary. Types of shows vary from cover charges, guarantees, tips only, and ticketed. We will chat before bringing you on board about your ideal compensation and if your expectations align with the current connections I have in various markets. I will not take on an artist if I cannot achieve the results you are aiming for.
You can submit an EPK/Music Links and your rates for acoustic, duo, trio, and full band shows. If I feel it's a fit, I will set up a call to make sure you feel totally comfortable before moving forward.
Country, Singer-songwriter, Pop, Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Hard Rock, Folk, Americana, Blues., Bluegrass, Rockabilly., R&B, Soul, Jazz, Funk, and cover bands within these genres. We are not seeking genres outside of this currently.
As a boutique agency, Jayebird runs on a retainer basis. This covers hours of outreach time and communication/negotiation with venues. I take no percentage of any shows I book for you. After chatting about expectations, I have artists read over and sign an artist agreement that lines out the monthly fee and more. I am non-exclusive. I am a great choice for those needing short-term support, or long-term support with the freedom to break an agreement at any time. I am under the time crunch of meeting expectations by the end of every single month in order to keep my artists happy long-term and wanting to renew month-to-month.
On average, I send 2-4 show offers per month for each artist.
This is going to vary artist to artist. Certain markets I can confidently say YES and then some. Others, it's just not going to happen. It depends on if you're willing to travel as well. If your goal is to break into new markets and gain new audiences this is a great option for you. I will gain a better idea of what your ideal compensation + my connections + your location is able to achieve when I learn more. I never over-promise, and I lead with transparency.
Please send an email to jordan@jayebirdbookings.com with your EPK, Music Links, current location, where you are hoping to book, if you're willing to travel, and your pay requirements for acoustic, duo, trio, and full band. If I feel I can help you, we can hop on a call or I can communicate with you through email where you will look over my artist agreement and I will answer all of your questions. Once you feel comfortable, we can get started! I onboard on the 1st and 15th of every month.
