I’m getting started with my new band and as a recent reddfugee I was wondering if we could set up our web presence in the Fediverse. Now where would we do this? We’d like to upload songs, share news about concerts and stuff, and post pics from recent events.
Funkwhale is an option: https://funkwhale.audio/
It’s focussed on being something like a decentralised version of what Grooveshark was, but you can definitely use it to host your own content.
That looks really nice, kinde looks like Soundcloud for me, I am not familiar with Grooveshark. Could be a cool starting point for uploading our first demos.
Since Kbin/Lemmy communities are in their earliest stages, you might want to take this opportunity to create your own community for music promotion, helping not only your band, but everyone who wants to promote their music.
this is what i was thinking, maybe something comparable to the old subreddit r/WeAreTheMusicMakers
Good idea!
This is what I am aiming to do with my lemmy instance, fanexus.com. It would be interesting to look into making it more music-centric though. I’m a big fan of vaporwave stuff and small labels in general.

Pixelfed - more the Instagramm style
Peertube - like youtubeA WordPress blog can be setup to use ActivityPub. You can have chronological posts that federate and can be followed on Mastodon et al and the usual website features like about pages, event pages, etc… Additionally you can then create a pixelfed account for Instagram-like presence.
