The Mission

Every night, thousands of bands take the stage. Setlists are written on torn paper, guitar solos are improvised, and fans capture it all from a hundred different angles on their phones.

But that history gets lost in the noise of social media feeds and buried in forgotten camera rolls. We built BandSonar to be the definitive live music database—a place to log the dates, build the setlists, and synchronize the footage so the show never really ends.

1. Log the Gig

Input the artist, the venue, and the date to initialize a permanent historical record on the radar.

2. Build the Setlist

Were you on the rail? Grab the setlist and log the tracks in the exact order they were played.

3. Synchronize Footage

Link full-show audio, multicam edits, or pit footage from YouTube and Rumble directly to the show profile.

Powered by the Pit

BandSonar relies entirely on the community to build, verify, and moderate the archive.

Crowd Moderation

Users upvote the best quality footage and downvote shaking, distorted phone clips. The highest-scoring angle always rises to the main stage of the show page.

Earn Radar Points

Every time you map a venue, upload footage, or log a setlist, you earn points. Build your reputation and climb the Leaderboard as a top archivist.

Deep Venue History

Because everything is relational, you can click on any club, theater, or festival to instantly view a chronological timeline of every band that ever played there.
