About • Locals Live

We Were Tired of Missing the Show

Friday night. You’re out. Somewhere within walking distance a band you’d love is absolutely melting faces in a beach bar… but you’ll never know.

The big apps only care about arenas. Facebook events are a graveyard. And half the time the venue’s own page hasn’t been updated since 2019.

We built Locals Live because the best nights shouldn’t stay secret.

Hey, I’m Andrew

I’ve spent the last decade chasing live music up and down the Gulf Coast. Got sick of walking past bars with killer bands inside and having zero clue they were playing.

So I built Locals Live — one neon color, one late-night coding session, one dive-bar wifi password at a time.

No investors. No “unicorn” pitch deck. Just an app that finally makes sure the best shows in town don’t stay hidden.
