Limelight Music
A social music app for discovering independent artists and songs nearby.
About the project
Limelight helps listeners find emerging artists through location-aware discovery, shared tracks, and social profiles. The app connects local scenes to a wider music community.
The problem
Independent artists need more than a play count. Listeners need a way to find music through their local scene and people they trust.
What I worked on
I build mobile discovery, artist, and sharing experiences across the Flutter app and its supporting services.
- Built mobile discovery and artist-facing experiences in Flutter.
- Worked on location-aware discovery, tracks, social profiles, and sharing.
- Connected the mobile experience to its supporting music and account services.
Team
Product and engineering with the Limelight team
Where it stands
Available on the App Store
Traction and outcome
Owner-supplied materials show a #4 Music App Store ranking and more than 1,000 onboarded artists
What I learned
Discovery works better when a track has context: who made it, where it came from, and who shared it.
