FanFair app review: FANtastic
Introduction
FanFair is an excellent app for iPhone and iPad that allows you to not only discover new artists in your city but to also expand your own fan base through the use of an innovative social media marketing platform.
My favorite thing about this app is the way that it caters to consumers, artists, and labels that are trying to promote themselves. This definitely creates an active community with loads of back and forth.
Find Hot Local Acts
What we’ve got here is an excellent app in the Entertainment category of the App Store which acts as social media platform for all things pertaining to music and the industry, enabling you to connect with fans of musicians to share comments, videos, and loads more.
This is also a great tool for learning about the hottest new acts in your city, and you can check out the latest releases from artists thanks to the in-app player. If you find tracks you like then can add them to your personal playlist to listen to later.

Promote Yourself
One impressive thing about FanFair is that it enables you to promote yourself as a musician or record label with the in-app marketing tools, so you can begin to expand your own fan base by sharing your own media on your channel.
I think this app has a lot of potential but even in its current incarnation it is a valuable asset to both fans of musicians and the artists themselves, so be sure to check it out if you want to learn more about your local music scene.
