What’s the point?

Locatebands is different from other social network sites in that we want to provide not just an online community, but a link back to the real world as well. Nearly all the information on locatebands.com is location aware. We want to help you discover bands from around the globe, but we also believe in helping you find music right down the street. We tell you what bands are playing in your neighborhood tonight and help you find listeners with similar interests that live around you.

Tell Me More…

Finding new music can be hard. Great bands are often overlooked by record companies and promotional outlets until the bands have achieved some level of success at which point they begin to appear on our cultural radar. But who wants to wait that long? And what about great music that never gets noticed at all?

Locatebands aims to change all that. LocateBands.com is your connection to musicians and music lovers worldwide. We are a community-oriented site designed to make it easy to find music you love and share that music with the rest of the community.

As users join and contribute their knowledge about music, bands, favorite venues, and as they swap stories, tall tales, and personal information YOUR network expands and every other user’s network expands with it. The users make the difference at LocateBands.com and we rely on you to make LocateBands.com the most comprehensive tool available.

Have you ever wondered…

  • “Where can I see a good live show tonight?”
  • “Where can I see a good live show on Tuesdays that is an all-ages venue?”
  • “Who is breaking stereotypes and pushing boundaries in music?”
  • “Who are the people that love and support these bands?”
  • “What does all of this new music sound like?”

Locatebands can give you all this information and much more.
