About Us

About SubJam

Once upon a time, a local radio station that promoted the area’s independent artists suddenly went off the air. Musicians, fans and venues were left out in the cold. Something had to be done.

So we made SubJam, a community run streaming radio network for every music scene, everywhere.

We’re musicians and music fans scratching our own itch. We’re building a platform that’s like having a radio station for every music scene in the world. Any location, any genre. All artist, fan and venue generated content. All geared toward getting more promotion, exposure and ultimately more people out to shows.

We want to host spontaneous and unforgettable experiences with live broadcasting, recording and making it available on demand and in rotation. We want an app where we hang out online to augment, not replace, hanging out at a show in person.

We’re currently focusing on audio because that’s the space where music lives. We think these types of tools will be a lot of fun to use for the artist and the music fan.

We just released our first beta in January 2024. This version allows live audio broadcasting of all types (performances, interviews/talks, promotional segments, etc.) with recording. You’ll be able to use the same app to listen to live and past broadcasts. You’ll be able to search for artists and other information. Subsequent releases will improve our scene features such as creating and joining scenes, and getting updates directly from them in your feed. From there we’ve got a long list of amazing features to add, all built around music and community.

We’re currently seeking those who share our vision and can financially help progress the project forward. We encourage you to reach out if you’re interested in helping us achieve our goals!
