BandMate recommends live music events based on what you listen to. Find out when your favorite band is playing and, better yet, when your next favorite band is playing!

BandMate also let's you know when the bands you'll like have upcoming releases, so you can keep your music collection fresh!

BandMate uses the artists already on your device to suggest other bands you might like as well. It then searches through event listings in the city of your choice to create a personalized calendar of the shows that you'd want to see and the new albums you'll want to check out.

Each item even includes a score letting you know how strong the recommendation is.

And if you don't have the time to scan through listings, just pop on your earphones and Bandmate will generate a playlist for all your artists with upcoming shows in your town.

BandMate also gives you all the tools you need to find out more about each artist. BandMate makes it easy to:
• View recent and upcoming album releases for your artists and your recommended artists
• Review Facebook feeds for most artists
• Don't keep music on your device? Import artists from iTunes Match, iTunes Playlists, Spotify, and Last.fm.
• watch the band's videos
• listen to the artist's music
• read the band's biography
• browse the artist's web site
• view multiple photos of each artist
• receive notifications when your artists announce new shows in your area
• view recent and upcoming album releases for your artists and recommended artists
• purchase tickets
• view videos, pictures, bios, etc. for all artists on your device, even if they don't have any upcoming events

• export a Spotify playlist (Spotify subscription may be required)
• share via email, Facebook, and Twitter
• track all the events at your favorite venues
• set a personal rating for each artist

Seeing a lot more shows now.
Joe Wales

Cool that it searches for the bands I like. Wish it had an option to tell me where my faves are playing anywhere in the world instead of having to search by city.


Best concert app ever
dmb6288

Takes your iphone music and creates a list of upcoming shows based off your music tastes. You'll be shocked how well it comes up with shows you'd like.


Changed my life

Not really but this is an awesome app that I check at least once a week. It's helped me find concerts that I normally would've missed and opened my eyes to new bands I hadn't heard of. If you're a big concert-goer this is a must download.


Works great

Love it


Great idea!

Sort of like Last.fm for concert listings -- the recommendations help to narrow down the listings, and some suggestions are better than others. The nice part is that all you need to do is watch a video, or listen to a few tunes, or just read about the band to learn a bit about them. And all that stuff is right there. I find it really handy when traveling. I like to plan ahead, so it's nice that you can also just punch in the name of the city you're headed to and you get the events for that town. And since you can set the search area to anywhere from 1 mile to a 150 miles, it's pretty practical for both times when I have a car and other times when I''m looking for stuff that's going on close to where I'm staying. I've been using it for a few months now and it's been really reliable. I've found some pretty sweet new bands.


BandMate Rocks!

I've already discovered a bunch of new bands with this app, and now I'm going to see their shows. I can't wait to use this on the road. No more scouring the local rag to see who's playing when. Super cool!!


Absolutely Marvelous!!
lonnie!

Love it!


Greatest App Ever!
Eric Whipple

Seriously, if you are looking for live music or new bands, this app rocks!


Too many listings
LaBarres

It has listings for about 10 concerts in my area for each artist on my iPod. Incorrect lineups and glitchiness.


If u like live music - this is for u!!
Eocb

Best ap I've found for seeking live music at home and when I travel. Only wish it did periodic seeks of music in an id'd locale and sent updates on shows.
