Sacramento based Net Musuic Makers aquires My Virtual Band

It was announced today that Net Music Makers has acquired My Virtual Band, which allows bands and musicians to make music online. The combined company plans to launch a social networking website in early 2007.

The website will allow bands and solo artists to create personalized websites, join a band, collaborate, and mix tunes. The new site will also provide a multi-channel internet radio station to showcase original songs.

Jeff Tamelier, President of NMM and former guitarist for Tower of Power and Starship, stated “We formed an alliance with MVB as part of our current Battle of the Bands Contest and were blown away by the number of entries from musicians collaborating on new tunes over the web. It was so successful, we bought them.”
