The first trading card company built for music

trade@headlinercards.com
Officially Licensed Music Collectibles

Trading cards for the music industry. Artist-approved. Sponsor-ready.

Sports has had this for decades. Music is just getting started — and we're the team building the official-licensing layer underneath it.

About Headliner Cards

Built by music industry veterans. Designed for the next era of fandom.

The trading card world is our lifelong passion. With a decade of expertise in the music industry, we built a strategy to bridge the gap between artists, fans, and brands — the licensing infrastructure that sports collectibles took for granted, finally rebuilt for music.

Past full-time companies include Snapchat Inc and Sony Music's The Orchard. Past artists include Oasis, Sammy Virji, BTS, Franc Moody, Jungle. Recent work: Sierra Nevada × CRSSD.
