JamFan

Start a band

Start a band with people who show up.

You have the songs, or the idea of them. JamFan finds the players to make them real, nearby and after the same thing as you.

Search for band members

Fill every seat

Search for the drummer, the bassist, the singer. Filter by genre and distance, and hear a demo before you message.

Same intent, same page

Casual, serious or professional is on every profile, so you find people with the same plans, and JamFan tells you plainly when a pick is a stretch.

Straight to a date

Mutual Jams open a chat with openers like “Free for a jam this week?”. Group chats keep the whole band in one place.

Start with two

Most bands begin as two people who like the same records. Find that one other player first, jam a few times, then use search to fill the rest of the line-up with people who already fit the sound.

Find the missing seat

Know exactly who you need? Search by instrument, genre and distance, hear their clips, and Jam the ones who sound right. Group chats make it easy to bring the whole line-up together.

The directory

Every city has a scene.

Musician directories across 70 cities, growing as the community does. You do not need an account to look around.
