The Fugue Lab operating system for music organizations

Everything your music organization needs online

Website, applications, email, donations, ticketing, and music planning on one system. Turn on what you need. Run it yourself, or have us run it for you.

Self-serve from $25/mo. Done-for-you from $100/mo.
Accepting donations is always free: 0% platform fee
No vendor lock-in. Leave any time with all of your data, free.

Two choices, one system

Every organization makes two decisions: which capabilities to turn on, and who runs them. Start with a website, add email or giving when you are ready, and delegate any piece to us at any time. Everything runs on the same system, so upgrading never means migrating.

Accepting donations is free forever: a Donate button with money going straight to your own Stripe account, 0% platform fee. The Donor Management price is for the management layer: recurring giving, tax receipts, and donor records.

Pay for what you turn on

Turn on only what you need. Website, Email Marketing, Ticketing, and the Music Library & Rehearsal Manager are $25 a month each; Applications is $50; Donor Management is $100. Pay annually and get 2 months free.

Any mix counts, on one system, so upgrading never means migrating. Donor Management and Ticketing are set up and run for you by our team today.

Done for you

We operate it and you stay in charge. Managed website and email include the underlying software, so you see one number.

Managed Website

From $100/mo

We keep your site current. Both tiers include the website software and a 72-hour turnaround; the tier is only how many changes you send.

  • Care · One update request a month: a concert change, a new page, a season refresh.$100/mo
  • Fully Managed · Send update requests any time, worked one at a time.$500/mo

Managed Email

$350/mo

We plan, write, design, and send. About 2 campaigns per month plus 1 automation.

Managed Design

$750/mo

A designer on call: social graphics, print pieces, campaign assets. One active request at a time, 72-hour turnaround. Includes upkeep of your brand system so every piece stays on-brand.

Growth Partner

$800/mo

Fully Managed Website plus Managed Email, $50 under the two separately.

Concierge

$1,000-1,500/mo

Everything done for you across all capabilities, plus strategy. Fundraising and box office run for you live here, and for festivals it covers Applications, branding, and launch.

Done-for-you plans start with a one-time onboarding (a Launch build counts) and a 3-month minimum term. Fully Managed website requests are unlimited: one active at a time, 72-hour turnaround.

For festivals

Auditions and applications with no per-applicant fees, on the same system as your website. Turn on the five capabilities a festival actually uses and the whole stack is $225/mo. Or have us design and run it for you at $1,000-1,500/mo.

The festival stack

$225/mo
  • Website$25/mo
  • Applications$50/mo
  • Email Marketing$25/mo
  • Ticketing$25/mo
  • Donor Management$100/mo

Applications stands alone at $50/mo if that is all you need. Want the festival fully run, branding and launch included? That is Concierge, above.

Consulting

Strategy and direction without full execution: done with you, above self-serve and distinct from done-for-you.

Digital Strategy Intensive

$1,500-3,000 one-time

Audit plus roadmap plus capability setup.

Fractional Digital Director

$500-1,500/mo

Ongoing strategy, oversight, prioritization.

Graphic design

Brand identity, posters, programs, and season campaigns as one-time projects, or the Managed Design retainer above for a designer on call.

Brand Direction Sprint

$1,500 one-time

Two weeks. A working session that ends with a decision, a look at how you sit against comparable organizations, a written direction, and one finished piece: a season poster using your real repertoire. Credited in full against any brand project booked within 60 days.

Identity Core

$4,500 one-time

The mark and its variants, palette, typography, and a usage guide. Delivered live: your colors and type are applied to your running site, program PDFs, and tickets, not handed over as a document for someone else to implement. Pairs with the platform from $50 a month.

Identity System

$8,500 one-time

Identity Core plus how you sound and what you print: voice and boilerplate, concert program and ticket templates, email templates, and a social template set your staff can actually post from. Pairs with the platform plus Managed Design.

Season Launch

From $12,500 one-time

The whole change, run for you: everything in Identity System plus a new site build, a season campaign, a photography day, and rollout support through the announcement. Quoted per season, and it usually continues as Concierge.

More on graphic design

Photography

Concert coverage, headshots, and season photography days, delivered as edited galleries you own outright. Sessions are Los Angeles area by default; travel beyond it is quoted per engagement.

Performance session

$650-900 per session

Concert or rehearsal coverage with an edited, web-ready gallery: the images your website, press, and grant applications keep asking for.

Headshot session

$500-750 per session

Directors, soloists, or a whole roster, shot consistently so your people pages and programs stop mixing selfies with studio shots.

Season photography day

$1,800 one-time

A full day across rehearsal, venue, and staged shots to stock a year of posters, socials, and appeals. Lands straight in your media library.

Photography and design are led by Danielle Dinstman, a Los Angeles artist and designer (BFA Painting, Boston University) whose work spans photography, illustration, and brand identity, including Fugue Lab’s own. More on photography.

Builds and add-ons

Get live with a one-time build, then add the small conveniences that keep everything running under one roof.

Launch build

$250 one-time

Custom-designed site plus basic integrations. DNS/domain connection included. Doubles as the done-for-you onboarding fee.

Custom build

Quoted

Fully custom design, complex integrations, festival/multi-program work.

Managed Domain ($25/yr): We register plus host in Route 53 and handle renewals. Registrant is always the client, transferable on request. No lock-in.

Professional Email ($5/mo): name@theirorg forwards to their existing inbox plus send-as. Free with any build.

Workspace mailbox setup ($50-150 one-time): One-time Google Workspace setup. The client owns the account and pays Google directly.

Data migration (heavy) ($150-500 one-time): Large donor/member/history imports. Simple content migration is bundled into a build. Offboarding export is always free.

Your domain is always registered in your name, and exporting your content, contacts, and donor data is free, always. You can leave with everything. That is the point.
