Vampr
Vampr is a location-based social and professional mobile platform which facilitates music discovery, networking and communication between musicians, music industry professionals and music fans.
The Los Angeles based startup was founded in 2015 by Australian musicians Josh Simons and Barry Palmer of Hunters & Collectors. According to The Australian Financial Review, the company received seed funding from Nick Feldman of 1980s British band Wang Chung. Apple named the app in its "Best of 2017" list.
In August 2019 the company launched an equity crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder which saw the company reach their minimum fund-raising target in the first hour.
In 2020 the company launched Vampr Publishing, a free music sync representation option for all users, in addition to a music distribution solution which comes bundled with the premium Vampr Pro subscription service.
As of February 2020, the app has facilitated over 5 million professional connections worldwide.
