About

Your own band, ready to play whatever you're working on. Backing Band turns a chord chart into a real-sounding rhythm section — drums, bass, piano and guitar that actually groove — so you always have something musical to practice over. Lay out the changes to any tune, pick a feel, press play, and start soloing. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Build any progression — enter the chords, arrange your sections (intro, verse, chorus, solo, turnaround…), and the band plays them back. • Pick a style — swing, bebop, shuffle blues, slow blues, classic & hard rock, funk, neo-soul, bossa nova, samba, reggae and more, each with its own groove, feel and arrangement. • Make it yours — set the key, tempo and feel; reshape the groove section by section; balance or mute instruments in the mixer. • Play and practice — loop the form, build your solos, lock in your time, and train your ears over a band that breathes. BUILT FOR PRACTICE, NOT A STIFF LOOP Real intros and endings, fills between sections, and a rhythm section that lifts behind your solo instead of looping the same bar. Whether you're shedding ii-V-I changes, grinding the 12-bar blues, or running a pop tune, the backing actually feels like players in a room. GENRES Jazz · Blues · Pop · Rock · Funk · Soul · Latin · Reggae — with a growing library of ready-to-play demo songs to start from or remix. FOR EVERY PLAYER Guitarists, pianists, horn and reed players, bassists, singers, students and teachers — anyone who learns faster with a band behind them. Download Backing Band and never practice to silence again.

What's New in BackingBand

2.6.24

August 30, 2026

This is the big one. Everything since 2.6.17 lands at once: a play screen built for playing, a band whose whole style you can swap mid-song, and charts that finally sound right in all 12 keys. Swap the band's style, mid-song • Tap the style on the play screen and pick another one — Swing to Bossa Nova, Slow Blues to Neo Soul • You hear the new band the moment you tap it, even while it's playing. Keep it, or cancel and land exactly where you were • 37 styles across jazz, blues, rock, pop, funk, soul, latin and reggae A play screen you can drive with one hand • New bottom toolbar — library, display settings, play, mixer, one tap each • Tempo and key sit behind the pill that shows them: see the value, change it in the same place • Chart display options open right over the chart and redraw it live — jazz symbols, colour or mono, bars per row, degree labels • "+ New" starts a chart from the play screen or the library, and asks before it drops unsaved work Every key sounds like it should • Power chords ring all three voices in every key, instead of thinning out to two • Bass and guitar hold their register through a transpose rather than dropping notes off the bottom • Drum grooves keep their feel when you change key • Slash chords keep their bass note through a key change More room to work • The free library now holds 5 charts, up from 1 Plus solid sheets, aligned controls, and a round of polish across the app. BackingBand is free to play — every chart, every style, unlimited. Pro is a one-time unlock for all 12 keys, the full chord palette, unlimited saves and every time signature. Thanks for playing along — got a request? We're listening.
