LinkedOut & Dregslist

By Vampr

With the music industry constantly evolving on an almost daily basis, it is important to remain up to date. The same thing goes for music technology. With platforms such as Craigslist and LinkedIn appearing more Web 1.0 by the minute, an effective and up-to-date alternative has never been more necessary. That’s where we come in 🙂

One way you might describe Vampr is Craigslist meets LinkedIn meets Tinder on steroids. The possibilities are endless. You can now search for exactly what you are looking for with the click of a button. Forget about aimlessly looking through thousands of listings, or having to guess the right keyword to search for. With Vampr, find the type of collaboration you are looking for, when you are looking for it.

With the 90’s long behind us Vampr has stepped up to take advantage of the mobile technology this generation has been afforded. Using swipe technology, our process is a much more fun way to discover musical collaborators than aimlessly scrolling through lists and networks. Let’s say you’re sitting in your room and you start to think you would love to collaborate with a French singer. No problem, just search for one. You want to find someone to practice with in your city? Cool, find one that same minute.

Don’t get us wrong. Craigslist and LinkedIn are good for certain things. If I want to sell my used sofa, I’ll be sure to get on Craigslist to do so. If I’m looking for a job selling insurance and would like to build my sales network, I’ll be sure to hop on LInkedIn.

Vampr is a platform built by musicians, for musicians. Our main goal is to find you, the musical creative, the exact collaborator you would like to work with as fast as possible. No run around processes are involved. Find someone you like, message them and collaborate. We just want to see everyone Play Together ✌️

ps. remember Carpool Tunnel, the San Jose band who formed on Vampr? They’ve now used the app to find a producer (GRAMMY nominee Billy Mohler, no less!) and have shot a new video of them in the studio together:
