Concert photography is one of the most undervalued creative disciplines in the music industry.
You fight for a photo pass. You squeeze into the pit with 10 other photographers. Three songs, no flash, elbows everywhere. You spend the rest of the night editing. You post and 48 hours later, your work has disappeared into the feed.
But the problem goes deeper than that.
A few months ago, I realized something strange:
I could instantly tell you my most-streamed artists from Spotify Wrapped, but I couldn’t tell you how many concerts I’d actually attended, which bands I’d seen live, or who I’d shared those memories with.
Some of the best moments of my life happened at concerts and festivals.
The summer of 2019.
That one festival weekend.
That support act that became my favorite band.
The friends I met through live music.
Yet all of those memories were scattered everywhere: ticket emails, screenshots, photos, videos, old notes and fading memories.
That’s why I started building Gigvault.
Not as another concert tracker or database, but as a social platform for live music fans.
A place where you can:
🎵 Build your complete concert history
🎵 Track artists you’ve seen live
🎵 Save concert photos and memories
🎵 Follow friends and discover shared shows
🎵 Get your own Concert Wrapped
🎵 Explore your AI Music Identity based on real live experiences, not streams
Today I’m excited to share that Gigvault is now available on:

If you’re a concert fan, festival addict, photographer or someone who measures life in concerts rather than years, I’d love to hear what you think.
What’s the one concert you’ll never forget?

How do you handle crediting photos, like is it pulled from your camera roll metadata or do you upload and claim them?
