Bandlink: Social networking for musicians

Well here's a new one. There have been social networking sites for everything from business to craftspeople so why not a social network for musicians (Ed, nod to MySpace). BandLink is a networking app specifically geared towards bands and musicians and it's aim is to connect the humble muso with other similar types worldwide. BandLink helps local musicians network with their very own social tool powered by the passions of musicians and the music industry in general. Whether you're forming a band, looking to jam, need a producer or anything else music related BandLink have created a free and inviting place for you to seek out talent. Aimed at the music industry, BandLink drives social interaction by providing a highly personalised experience around connecting with musicians and industry professionals. It's a way to find like minded musicians locally. So how does it work? Lets say you're a guitarist starting a band and you're missing players. It's very easy to go and search drummers, bass players, singers etc in your area and make the right connections. You can filter your search by music genre, favorite bands and distance. It's easy.With hundreds of new members joining every day you'll be sure to find the right person for your musical talents and be well on your way to making new friends and new music. Because BandLink was created by musicians you can be assured that they are constantly working to make sure this site does all it can to help you find the fellow musicians you need. BandLink is the ultimate tool to find great musicians for your band or musical project. The next step appears to be online auditions, local rehearsal and studio directories plus a few more cool things they refuse to tell us about yet. The way online auditions will work is by creating a page for your band, selecting the band members you are missing and BandLink will list all members in your local area that fit the opening. You can look through their pages, listen to their music and see what they look like before inviting them in for a face-to-face audition. BandLink is a great musicians tool that could well fill in a huge gap in the musical market. I wonder if they've got any drummers.
