Patrick Ross
COO, MusicAlly
It was a joy working with Bandtheme. Their highly visual, music-focussed WordPress Themes opened up so many possibilities for how a band website can look and feel, whilst offering core functions to satisfy the nuances of music's digital landscape. Bonus points for working with music lovers meets website builders, ultimately leading to a better fan experience.
Rupert King
VP of Marketing & Artist Manager, Blue Raincoat Music
Matt Deighton is a true British great - a critically acclaimed folk/rock artist with a back catalogue of classic records stretching back to the early 90’s. He was the subject of a Sky Arts documentary in 2021 and his bandtheme website allowed him to perfectly present a treasure trove of music and photos from across the decades in a clean, fast and incredibly easy to use and update template. Bandtheme gives power to the independent artist in presenting their world to the wider world.

Awesome theme and amazing support! It feels like having a team behind you which helps you whenever you need them.
Coven Call
Independent Band
Bandtheme is an affordable template and also very user-friendly. In half a day our existing website was completely transferred. I did that myself but they can also do that for you. Completely satisfied!
Lucky Came to Town
Independent Band
So pleased I found Bandtheme! Fantastic service. My site looks vastly improved in just a few simple steps, and after contacting customer support a few times my questions were dealt with swiftly and helpfully.
Riva Taylor
Independent Artist
The theme looks and feels like it was custom built. Working within the theme - it is very logically laid at and their system of “pockets” make it so easy to make updates and the changes are echoed throughout your site. More tour dates - no problem - every instance of tour dates on your site is updated - same with releases, reviews, bios - it just makes sense. Well thought out AND the customer support is one of the best I’ve encountered! Thank you for being an outstanding company. You are a stand out.

I’m a big fan of the Bandtheme spin on the WordPress website. It’s easy to use and the functions are very impressive. The finished results look great and make for a smart, sleek looking website. The guys at Band Theme are extremely helpful and always on hand for any questions and queries I may had. Great product and top team.
Stan

Dave and his team are super responsive and professional. Also, really friendly and I can tell they care about their customers and want everyone who uses Bandtheme to succeed. Not only are they great people to work with, the website itself, the easy-to-use template, and the helpful guide if you get stuck, are extremely valuable. If you are just launching your career, like me, or you are a well-seasoned pro, Bandtheme has everything for you.
