New dating app, Tambr, uses music to bring people together based upon their shared interests in songs and artists
Sharing Your Spotify and Apple Music Favorites
Ask most people what they are passionate about and one of the first things they mention is their favorite music.
What if you could date someone who enjoys the same music you do? What if you could share music with that person and get to know them? With Tambr you can share music by sending songs or playlists to each other. You can share your passions with other music lovers – and express your music personality with up to 5 Anthem songs.
Dating with a Focus!
Tambr is the latest dating app to enter the $7 Billion and growing dating market. Tambr’s focus? Young single Millennials who love music. The Tambr algorithms focus heavily on bringing people together who love the same music, but the algorithms also surface people’s passions beyond music such as dogs or drones, fishing or fine dining, painting or photography. With a similar musical taste as a given, there are plenty of great first-date ideas for people to explore with each other based on their shared passions. Even going to a concert together.
Not just another first date!
Tambr not only displays singles who love the same music, but Tambr is the only dating app that surfaces local concerts based on your listening habits and suggests which of your matches you should invite. Think of it as a first date insurance policy, knowing you’re both going to enjoy the concert helps ease some of the first date jitters.
Does my date need to use the same music streaming service?
No. Tambr breaks down the walls between music services. Previously, the only social interactions that could take place between people had to take place on the same music service, such as Spotify or Apple Music. Tambr saw that as a big problem. Why should a music service limit your social interactions, whose playlists you can like, who you can follow, invite to concerts or even date? Tambr has created a borderless technology that enables users match across music services; play each other’s music, share songs or playlists, download songs or playlists from other users all while maintaining the digital rights of their own streaming music service.
What’s in a name?
What’s Tambr? It’s the phonetic pronunciation of the musical term “Timbre”: the character or quality of a musical sound or voice that resonates with the listener. Simply put, Tambr brings people together who resonate with the same musical qualities.
Market timing for Tambr?
Yes, there are already a lot of dating apps on the market. But the switching costs are very low. We believe the timing for Tambr is perfect. With the OTT market for streaming content taking off, now is the perfect time for dating apps to incorporate streaming capabilities and algorithms to match people based on what they love and how they live their lives.
Bridging the Apple Music Service and Spotify
In July of this year, Apple announced surpassing 60 million subscribers to its Apple Music service and Spotify announced surpassing 100 million subscribers this past April. Tambr is poised to bring these audiences together. Apple and Spotify may fiercely compete to gain market share for their music services but Tambr is the bridge that unites their users, enabling cross-platform music discovery, playlist sharing, playlist creation, and concert promotions. Simply put, finding your soulmate shouldn’t be limited to your selection of a music service.
What about Instagram or Strava?
Instagram has become a very popular way to share your life story. Tambr integrates directly with Instagram so users can keep their dating profile fresh, automatically displaying their latest photos or videos. And Strava has become a very popular way to share your athletic life story. Athletes tend to date athletes, and they tend to love concerts and music festivals. Tambr is the only dating app that lets users display their latest workouts in their dating profile. And, adding Instagram or Strava automatically boosts your profile so other users will find you faster.
Look & Listen. Like & Match. Find a Local Concert. Get a Date.
Tambr is easy and fun to use – just tap through your people feed to discover new people, listen to their music and explore your shared passions. Like or SuperLike anyone and if they like you back – it’s a match! Tambr prioritizes the people they show you based on your common music interests, and your shared passions. Once matched, use the ‘Get a Date’ feature to invite your match to a concert. Tambr is the only dating app that provides a tailored list of local concerts and makes it super easy for you to invite someone to join you for a show.

About Rob Crumpler, CEO of Altrooz – Creator of Tambr
Rob is a serial entrepreneur and musician. The idea for Tambr and bringing people together around music came from Rob’s real-life experiences playing gigs around the Seattle and San Francisco areas during the evenings while working his daytime job at Microsoft. Rob’s band at the time, mostlyDave, played Dave Matthews songs and he was able to inspire large groups of friends to watch him play. “We had a lot of fun playing those gigs” says Rob “and there was a lot of dating and even some marriages from people meeting for the first time at our gigs.” Today, Rob runs Altrooz during the day and can be seen with his new band on the weekends playing around Marin County.
