Began In A Basement And DIY Since Day 1.
Like most great music, Merchtable began in a basement. Merchtable was started in 2002 by Coalesce lead singer Sean Ingram and anniversary bassist Jim David to serve the band’s need for merch. The company started with a second-hand press and a plan to fix the industry’s problem of low quality apparel and poor customer service. In the decades since, Merchtable has grown to a team of 30 and developed a reputation for its ability to deliver high quality products and Disney-like customer service.
We’ve made a lot of weird things in our 20 years. Our capabilities are limited only by your imagination.
Services
The music industry has changed and so has Merchtable’s services. Everything we offer is backed by the Kansas grit that was solidified in the Midwest hardcore scene.
Make It
Our design, production, and fulfillment teams are in the same building. This cuts down time in the production timeline and makes for better quality control.
You’ll have a single point of contact who will help you navigate the process from start to sale. Our team are all seasoned musicians who will provide some best practices advice and reduce the load that you are carrying every day.

Tour It
We’ve lived life under the lights and we loved every minute of it. We still love the stage, but we spend less time backstage and more time in the front of the house. And the thing that we realize from this vantage point is that we love it just as much. Let us handle your tour logistics. Give us an itinerary and watch us go to work.
