Music site Unsigned Band Review is relaunching as an industry-focused social network. Until now, it’s been a site for, yep, unsigned bands to post their music and get it heard by journalists and industry figures. More than 13k have signed up so far. Now that will be opened up to the wider music industry. “There are many technology based, and user generated platforms out there for artists, but we see the need for something more than this – we will be providing a platform for both artists and music industry professionals,” says founder Kat Jackman. “We want to work with all the other services out there for bands and become the central place for new music, aspiring music video producers, promoters, venues, pluggers, publicists and more.” As part of the relaunch, UBR is launching a talent contest called Emerging Icons Academy.
