Live-music shows in Austin & Chicago matched to your taste (pass artists you like).

Discover live music shows in Austin and Chicago matching your taste preferences.

Captured live from the server via tools/list.

find_events

Find upcoming live-music events in a supported city (Austin or Chicago), filtered by free-text query, date range, and/or genre. Returns taste-neutral event records with source attribution, ticket links, and a freshness timestamp — the same public data catchaset.live shows signed-out visitors. Does NOT rank by personal taste. Results are capped per call; page with the returned next_cursor.

Parameters (7)

citystring
City to search. Only Austin and Chicago are supported; any other value returns an unsupported_city note and defaults to Austin.
querystring
Optional free-text filter matched (case-insensitive substring) against headliner, artists, venue, and genre.
date_fromstring
Optional inclusive lower bound, ISO date YYYY-MM-DD.
date_tostring
Optional inclusive upper bound, ISO date YYYY-MM-DD.
genrestring
Optional genre substring filter.
limitinteger
Max events to return (1-100).
cursorstring
Opaque pagination cursor from a previous response's next_cursor.

find_live_shows

Given a list of artists the user likes, find upcoming shows in a supported city (Austin or Chicago) where one of those artists is on the bill, ranked (most matches first, then soonest). Taste is a PARAMETER — no account or login needed. Each result includes why_matched (which of the user's artists plays). This is direct-artist matching; genre-based discovery of *similar* artists is available in the CatchaSet web app, not here.

Parameters (6)

artistsarrayrequired
Names of acts the user likes. Required — this is the taste to match.
citystring
City to search. Only Austin and Chicago are supported; other values default to Austin with an unsupported_city note.
date_fromstring
Optional inclusive lower bound, ISO date YYYY-MM-DD.
date_tostring
Optional inclusive upper bound, ISO date YYYY-MM-DD.
limitinteger
Max shows to return (1-100).
cursorstring
Opaque pagination cursor from a previous response's next_cursor.
