Question 1

What is Encore?

Accepted Answer

Encore is a concert diary and show tracking app — like Letterboxd or Goodreads, but for live music. You can log every show you've attended, write notes, look up setlists, follow friends, and discover upcoming concerts near you.

Question 2

Is Encore a good Songkick alternative?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Encore does everything Songkick does for tracking shows you want to see, but adds a full concert diary for shows you've already attended — with notes, setlists, photos, and a social feed. It's built for fans who want a permanent record of their concert life, not just a ticketing calendar.

Question 3

How do I track concerts I've already been to?

Accepted Answer

Encore lets you log past shows manually, import a spreadsheet or CSV of your concert history, or use the setlist lookup to find shows by artist, venue, and date. Your full history lives in a personal concert diary on your profile.

Question 4

Is Encore free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Encore is free to use. Sign up at encoreconcerts.fm.

Question 5

Can I see what shows my friends are going to?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Encore has a social feed that shows what shows your friends have logged, their notes, photos, and posters. You can follow friends and see their full concert diaries.
