How it works
From first message to first rehearsal.
Three steps, and you only have to do the first one once.
Say what you play and where you are
Add your instruments, your genres and how far you will travel. Then add a clip, so people can hear you.
Hear tonight’s setlist
Every evening JamFan picks six musicians near you, each with one honest reason you would play well together.
Jam, and say hi
Send a Jam to anyone you want to play with. When it is mutual, the chat opens with three openers built from what you both play.
Why you two
Every pick comes with an honest reason.
JamFan looks at what you play, the genres you love, your level, how far you will travel and what you are after. It works a little like a dating app, minus the endless swiping: six picks each evening, and a true reason for each.
If a pick is a stretch, JamFan says so, because an honest “Heads up: casual, and you’re serious” saves you a month of messages.
Strings attached
Why you two
- You both play indie rock
- Plays violin, on your wanted list
- 7 km away, inside your radius
- Heads up: casual, and you’re serious
It’s a jam
When it is mutual, the chat opens.
Send a Jam to anyone you want to play with. If they Jam back, JamFan opens a chat with three openers built from what you both play, so nobody has to think of a first line.
Your intent
Say what you are after, so you meet people after the same thing.
Casual
Jam sessions, no pressure
Serious
A project with a plan
Professional
Paid work and touring
The old way
Finding people to play with has always come down to luck.
A flyer on a noticeboard. A post that sinks in an hour. A friend of a friend. JamFan replaces the luck: it finds the people near you who want to play what you play, and lets you hear them before you say hi.
A wanted ad
No filters, no demo, and the post expires.
A group post
Buried within the hour, with no profiles to check.
A noticeboard flyer
Works only if the right person walks past.
