Welcome to WNYMusic.com

When I was in high school, WNYMusic.com was the only way a geeky 16-year-old kid from the suburbs could find out about the Buffalo music scene. I made friends, discovered bands and even got some gigs out of it.

A brief history lesson: The website was created in 1996, peaked in 2005 and has been (mostly) a graveyard since 2012.

Well, it’s coming back, and in a big way!

We are now a volunteer-run website for musicians and fans by musicians and fans. We’re bringing back The List of local bands (which will feature over 500 bands!). We’ll have the event calendar back up. And, for the first time, WNYMusic.com will have a blog!

If you’re interested in helping out, please send us a message. We need programmers, writers, photographers, designers, social media people and anything else you can think of. If not, stayed tuned. 

I was given this website for free with the stipulation that I do it justice. I plan to do just that. Come join us!
