Vollou, a music administration platform, is testing a feature that uses Bandsintown data to automatically identify live performances and recover unclaimed royalties for artists.
The system, described by co-founder Callum Osborne, reconstructs an artist’s live performance history by combining publicly available concert listings with setlists and recordings found online, with the artist’s permission.
The workflow begins by pulling concert data from Bandsintown. Once performances are identified, the platform searches for matching setlists or recordings and converts that information into structured data for royalty reporting.
The tool can also work retrospectively, organizing years of touring data that artists may not have reported to performing rights organizations. This could help musicians recover live performance royalties that would otherwise go unclaimed. The feature remains in testing.
