One of the biggest and most used features of the Wizrocklopedia since it’s beginning has been the bands listing. New fans have used it to discover new music, and bands looking to book shows and tours have used it to find contact info for potential show partners.

Now that the Wizrocklopedia’s been re-launched, one of our first spring cleaning projects is to get it updated for everyone!

Our goal is to try and get the current band listings updated, as the majority of bands on the list have their MySpace page as their primary website for music. We’re betting that many bands have now moved their music to Facebook, Tumblr, Bandcamp, YouTube or any other number of sites that host music and contact information, and we want to direct fans to those sites.

Of course, along with updating those existing bands listings, we also want to get all the new bands that have popped up listed as well! We want to make sure wizard rock fans can find all the new songs and bands that are now in the community, and help the bands get their music out to everyone.

Now, to accomplish all of this, we’d really like your assistance! Here’s how you can help:

NEWER BANDS – please fill out the New Band Submission form, and let us know who you are, where you are, and the one best site for fans to find your music!

BANDS ALREADY LISTED – you can also fill out the New Band Submission form, but please let us know you’re already on the list, and what new link you’d like us to use for your listing.

While we’re rebuilding the bands listing, we’d like to hear from YOU – are there any other features we could add in for you to help you find new music? One idea we had was to put all of the bands in a searchable table. We’d be able to put the band’s location right next to their name so you could search or sort by location or name right from the same list. Would that be a feature you’d like to see? Or if you have any other ideas, let us know in the comments below!
