This update introduces a major redesign of the band hiring experience.

🎸 Music Agencies

Bands are now grouped into dedicated music agencies.

Each agency specializes in different genres and artists, making the lineup building process more immersive and easier to understand.

⭐ New Agency Visuals

Every agency now has its own visual identity, branding and presentation.

Artists also inherit the visual style of their agency.

📈 Improved Artist Information

Band cards have been redesigned to show:

  • Followers • Popularity • Local talent status • Seasonal trends • Featured artists • Agency affiliation

This makes it easier to identify rising stars and build stronger festival lineups.

🎯 Better Progression Foundations

This update lays the groundwork for future features:

  • Agency relationships • Exclusive artist offers • Special agency events • Advanced negotiation systems

📊 Internal Improvements

We've also expanded our analytics systems to better understand how players build and manage their festivals, helping us improve balancing and future updates.

Thank you for supporting SoundFest! More improvements are already in development.
