An artist site that plays, sells tickets and isn't a linktree

Imani Vey is a made-up artist with a site of her own: a 3D record shop, lyrics that light up as the song plays, tour tickets and booking requests.

It's a demo with a made-up business: the names, photos and prices are placeholders.

Who it's for

  • Singers, solo artists and bands who currently live on a linktree.
  • Managers who want ticket sales and booking requests in one place.
  • Acts playing clubs and theatres who want their music playing on their own site.

What's inside

  • A 3D record shop: pick a sleeve, the record drops onto the platter, the tonearm lowers and it starts playing.
  • A player that keeps going as you browse, and lyrics that light up word by word with translations in six languages.
  • A tour page with sample ticket checkout: seat, quantity, payment, a ticket with its code and a calendar file.
  • Past live videos, streaming platforms, socials and a way for fans to support the artist.
  • A booking form for weddings, parties and festivals.
  • A page for the artist's app, with working chat and show mode.

Most musicians have a linktree: a stack of buttons sending people off to other platforms. It works, but it isn't yours, it doesn't sell tickets and it doesn't play anything. Imani Vey is a made-up soul rock singer, born in London and based in Lisbon, and her site is what a musician can have instead of that stack of buttons.

From crate to turntable

Up top, Imani under a shaft of golden light and a button to play "Copper Wire". Below that, a crate of vinyl and a turntable in 3D: pick a sleeve, the record drops onto the platter, the tonearm comes down and it plays. While you listen, the lyrics light up word by word, with a translation under every line. The player sits at the bottom and keeps going as you move around the site. Then there's the tour with ticket checkout, live videos, streaming links, socials, a way to support her and a booking form. The app page has the chat and show mode, both working.

Why it works for a musician

Fans show up from Instagram or TikTok, late at night, headphones on. If within a minute they can listen, see when you're playing nearby and buy a ticket, you've got them. And anyone planning a wedding or a festival finds the booking form without hunting for an email address. It all happens on your site, not someone else's.

Your music, your dates

Imani doesn't exist. The photos come from a free shoot, and the dates, numbers and payments are samples (the footer says so). For you, we put in your records, your lyrics and their translations, your dates with your ticketing, your videos and your socials, in your look.

Drop the needle

Put your headphones on and head to music.themariscal.com. Pull a record from the crate and watch the lyrics light up. If you're a musician or work with one, drop us a line.
