Alright putting out the call: any good fedi music-related accounts to follow?

One of the best features here is that you can follow hashtags. So if you just browse around a few likely ones (e.g. #music has almost 900 posts today, and then you could pick others more specifically relevant to your genre of greatest interest) then you can pick the most interesting to you (or the ones with the best signal:noise ratio) and curate a timeline for yourself.

@lexfeathers I'm not quite a band, but a singer-songwriter with an electric guitar. If something in the vein of early Mountain Goats or Daniel Johnston is of interest, I'm on here.

@lexfeathers there's a rather specific slice (squeeze) of music that https://mastodon.social/@AccordionBruce shares

@lexfeathers Hey. I am a smashed wicker basket that makes weird noises.

@SallyStrange @lexfeathers @airadam @blogamf
Another big vote for @thetonearm

And @buffyleigh whose @1001OtherAlbums project I just heard of and look forward to following

Also the weekly Sunday @listeningclub — where everyone downloads or streams a mystery album and comments with #ListeningClub

Not many “Musician promoting my new album/tour/swag” here, which personally I wouldn’t mind having in one place for efficiency, and to get friends off the corporate sites

@joeldn @lexfeathers also check out the @pastagang bot, it will retoot the hashtag (and a few more related)

@lexfeathers

Have you seen http://bandwagon.fm ? A fediverse connected social app for musicians

https://theindiebeat.fm/ is an online radio station linked to it and also has a music video channel at https://tv.theindiebeat.fm/

@bloodlessgirls @lexfeathers That description gets a follow from me!

[rachelcholst@linernotes.club]

@lexfeathers I write about folk, country, and Americana for several publications and I edit the queer country zine @rainbowrodeomag

@lexfeathers

#hashtags are vital for finding community sharing info.

#music #musiclovers #scene

And specifics #rock #jazz #mozart #house #metal ?

[c0rb34u@hostux.social]

@lexfeathers @radiofreefedi was a great resource and a fantastic and surprising streaming, but it is over now, sadly, although maybe you can find artists in the archive.

[gavin57@toot.wales]

@lexfeathers Hashtags are your friend. I’d start with #music but there is also hashtags for genres like #jazz and #technicaldeathmetal etc.

[airadam@mastodon.me.uk]

@SallyStrange @lexfeathers @blogamf @AccordionBruce Thank you for the mention!

@lexfeathers I've been following @1001OtherAlbums for a while and they seem to have a variety of interesting recommendations.
