It is not necessary to be a Patreon Member to experience the opportunities that Kontra has to offer, but the Patreon Membership comes with access to more opportunities, applications, events, and discounts. Our Patreon Members even get half off merchandise. While the membership isnt necessary, it is definitely cost effective.
How do I know this isnt another Emerging Artist Scam

We definitely understand the worry. There are so many sites and organizations out there that try to scam up and coming artists. As emerging artist’s ourselves, we created Kontra to combat this in the industry. We are not a pay to play agency. We also make sure our artist’s get paid for the shows they perform. The connections you make and the opportunities you get with Kontra are 100% legit and review backed by many of the artist’s we’ve worked with. If you are still skeptical, come to one of our free networking events and chat with artists within the collective. Even paid events and opportunities have the option of gifted or discounted entry. All you need to do is send an email to heykontra@gmail.com with the following subject line: (Name of Event): Financial Assistance and we will talk more.
