We help touring artists and management teams reduce or recover tax withholdings in the United States and Canada — so more of your revenue stays where it belongs.
TourTaxSavers is built on over 25 years of real-world experience in the international live music and touring industry, working across artist routing, promoter coordination, and cross-border performance structures in both Canada and the United States.
Our background includes working alongside major booking and touring agencies within the global live entertainment ecosystem, including:
These agencies represent some of the most active touring operations in global live music, working with artists across club, theatre, festival, arena, and stadium-level touring.
From waiver applications before the first show to tax recovery after the final night — we manage the entire process on your behalf.
We handle the full process of applying for tax waivers before your tour begins — helping reduce or eliminate withholding at the source.
If taxes have already been withheld, we handle the filing process to recover what you're owed — with no money left on the table.
You focus on the tour. We handle the rest.
We do not provide legal or tax advice. We prepare and organize documentation so clients can submit complete, accurate filings.
When tax documentation isn't properly prepared before a tour begins, standard withholding is applied automatically — before artists receive payment.
Share your upcoming tour dates, venues, and fee structure.
We use your expense data to build the strongest possible filing.
TourTaxSavers manages all documentation, submissions, and communications.
Reduced withholdings or a full refund — more money where it belongs.
A flat tour setup fee plus per-show administrative support — sliding with volume. No surprises.
