Join My Band Reviews 

I have contacted the admin at Join My Band on 3 separate occasions to DELETE my account.
They do not reply or comply with my requests. You can't delete your own account yourself. I don't want JMB holding onto my contact information..

DON'T JOIN THIS PLATFORM

I back up what the other review says. As someone who made a living out of the band scene in the late 80s and is now toying with the idea of getting back into it. I would say that after using jmb for a couple of years now. It is the pits and more likely to demotavate your goals then , then add fuel to your ambition.

Whats worse this morning when I clicked on a muscians clasfied , then got pelted , with third party ads. The kind you normally see on only the worst type of sites with poor control .

Even if you get to shift through the actual clasfied sections themselves , Most the aspirational muscians most of who are amuter appeart to full of themselves about needing a shed load of requirments . Most ads will discriminte against people who can't drive . I can drive so it makes no dice to me. But I appreciate there are many younger muscians or those on a lower budget who can not afford to run a car or get driving lessons .
But what makes these want to be recruiters who can not wield this type of power in their day job (or as often the case may be ) , sound like jokes is that they care more about their stipulations then hering someone try out . Least we forget that non of the Beatles could drive ,when the band was starting out.
Another reason why sites like this are depressing , is that the collbarative effort of being in a band no longer exists . To the extent that it did pre net age.

In short join my band is full of delusional people who will probably not make more then a few crumbs from the music business. Who have not even got out the starting block but are happy to give orders like a winer . As there is no foroum the problamatic nature of the site can not be discussed amonst others on the site , neither can muscians get feed back from others .
It seems the types of bands and people that advertise on it have a very narrow set of influences and are only looking for others to adhere to this rigid specfication . Most ads read like somone is offering a paid job . But obviously they are not so why anyone would bother to reach out to these types is a mystery to me.

You can also not upload your sound clips to this site and in the past I wrote free ads which got more promotion then fetured which you pay for .

In general the site runs in a very outdated way as if it was operational in 1995 not 2025 .
It seems the site has worse and more intrusive ads day by day. But the people who run it do nothing in relation to investing, in the modernsation of the site .

The one star is generous.
An utterly appalling site for musicians seeking to connect, and absolutely no support at all, unless you are a paying advertiser - which I wouldn't be tempted to be after trying it for free.
Every click results in annoying ads popping up.
Glitches are never fixed when reported, and no-one replies to the reports.
I have a "sent" box full of messages that I can't delete, and an inbox that behaves in the same way.
Most of the people on there are either ignorant fakes, flakes or fakes, who don't answer messages - or maybe they don't get them?
Any serious musicians should really avoid this site.
It's as bad as several other basement bargain sites now... and there appears to be no way of deleting an account either.
Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.
