More About Join My Band - UK Musicians Classifieds
What is Join My Band?
Hi, I'm Steve. I started Join My Band back in 2006 after struggling to find a simple, free and effective way to meet other musicians online. I just wanted something simple that actually worked, and as a result it's been great seeing how many bands and projects have come together through the site over the years.
Join My Band is now one of the busiest musicians classifieds in the UK. Thousands of guitarists, drummers, vocalists, bassists, keys players and other musicians use it every day to find bandmates, join new projects or get back into playing music. The site is still free, still easy to use and still focused entirely on helping musicians connect.
