MusicTonic: Cool Music Search Mashup

MusicTonic lets you browse through music artists by genre or directly search, returning related images, videos, blog posts, and a list of “Related Artists”- all in one interface.

Screencap of MusicTonic

Just to put it to the test, I thought I’d try searches on musicians not quite as well known as the Beatles, and was fairly impressed with the results.

Richard Thompson
The Wood Brothers
Jurassic 5
Youngblood Brass Band
Paul Pena

Data is mashed up from YouTube, Last.fm,Yahoo Search, Amazon, Technorati, and OpenStrands- but I’d love to see it use news from Topix or Google News, too.

For a different sort of musician searching, check out LivePlasma (does movies and actors too).
