Hey music lovers! Big news in the music tech world – Songscription, the awesome startup that's like the Shazam for sheet music, just landed a whopping $5 million to supercharge their game-changing AI platform. 🎸🎶
Launched just five months ago, Songscription has already jammed its way into the hearts of 150,000 users in over 150 countries! So, what's the scoop? This powerful platform listens to your fave tracks and magically transforms them into editable sheet music right on your screen. Say goodbye to endless searches for those elusive music notes!
Right now, you can use Songscription for instruments like the piano, violin, flute, guitar, bass guitar, and trumpet. But hold onto your drumsticks—they're expanding to include even more instruments soon!
Leading the charge with the $5M investment was Reach Capital, along with backup from Emerge Capital, 10x Founders, and Dent Capital. And guess what? Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal, the former Guns N’ Roses guitar legend, is on board too as an angel investor and advisor! 🤘
Andrew Carlins, the mastermind co-founder behind Songscription, shared that his tech revolutionizes the way musicians get their hands on those must-have song notations. “Most musicians can’t easily find notation for the songs they want to play, especially with so many niche artists now on platforms like Spotify,” he said. “We’re using AI to close that gap, letting artists instantly create notation, and fans to connect like never before!”
And there's more! Songscription plans to use the newfound green to expand their instrument library and bring in rad features that'll let users tailor songs to their skill level. Imagine having a pocket-sized music coach that gives you real-time feedback and helps you jam better!
Bumblefoot is pumped too, saying, “As a guitarist, getting the right tabs is everything. This tool is phenomenal for everyone, from teachers to pros—it saves tons of time and changes the game completely!”
Jennifer Carolan from Reach Capital added, “AI is transforming how people around the globe create and vibe with music. Songscription’s tech lets musicians of all levels play and share the songs they love.”
Founded by music visionaries Andrew Carlins, Alex Alvarado-Barahona, Katie Baker, and Tim Beyer, Songscription is set to transform the music scene. Whether you're a newbie or a seasoned rocker, get ready to play your heart out!
