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. Pick your path below.

Who Are You Here For?

Four paths. One licensing engine underneath.

Every Headliner Cards drop is built around the same principles — official licensing, artist creative control, and a sponsor network ready to co-sign. The path you take depends on who you are.

All paths meet at the same activation

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.
