RootMusic Raises $2.3 Million To Help Bands Build Spectacular Facebook Pages

RootMusic, a San Francisco-based startup that essentially makes it easier for bands and musicians to set up phenomenal-looking pages on Facebook, has raised $2.3 million in financing according to an SEC filing.

If you’d like to learn more about RootMusic, check out Orli’s post, but basically, RootMusic lets musicians and bands establish fancy Facebook pages, featuring artwork, music, photos, videos, a concert calendar and whatnot.

There’s a free option and a paid option for bands who want to dive deeper into the customization of their so-called ‘BandPage’.

This is the BandPage for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers if you’re interested in an example, or check out RootMusic’s tour.

We reached out to RootMusic about the financing round, but they declined to provide more details at this point. We’ll update their CrunchBase profile when they get around to do so.
