Sims 4 Band Mods – How To Join An Epic Band?

It’s time to face the music and Auto-Tune your gameplay experience with the help of a Band Mod.

Band Mods

We’ve talked time and time again about features from prior The Sims games that we miss in The Sims 4 and unfortunately there’s no shortage of options! Today we’re going to talk about something of a more musical nature: Bands.

In The Sims 2 characters were able to play music together as part of the University EP, with instruments on a musical loop that would sync up with others so your sims could play a coherent tune. In The Sims 3 with the Late Night EP players could form official band groups with their characters, play gigs, and more. But with The Sims 4 there’s none of that. We have a few musical instruments and microphones but they cannot be played together to form a unified sound.

Band Mods — Can We Make CC Bands?

There’s no perfect Band Mod available out there (yet anyway), but there have been a few other mods created that can get us partway there. Combine them together or add other mods, and you can get a halfway-decent illusion going that your sims are in a band together whether it’s for screenshots, machinima, or just your daily gameplay.

More on SNOOTYSIMS: With the singing cheat you can turn your sim into a top-level crooner or the ultimate pop star sensation!

Singing Cheat

Band Life Mod!

Band Life Mod!

A mod that adds a handful of music-based elements to The Sims 4 that can get you closer to having your sim in a band. Sims can play for money, study Guitar skill on a computer, enjoy new interactions relating to music, try the new Rocker trait, and the mod adds a new club rule that encourages singing. Use this club rule along with rules pertaining to playing instruments, and you can form a “club” that’s made up of your bandmates and pushes for them to perform. The music won’t be in sync but hopefully your sims’ moods are!

Singing Career

Singing Career

Vocalists are an important part of many bands and with this mod your sims can now have a fruitful career in singing. The mod comes with tasks for Promotions and work-from-home purposes and requires the Singing Gig Event mod to work fully, which gives it another layer of richness.

Into Music Fan Made Stuff Pack

Into Music Fan Made Stuff Pack

This collection comes with a half dozen new musical instruments such as the drums, flute, contrabass, panpipe, kalimba, and handpan. Each instrument has custom sound and (with the exception of the drums) has to be added to your sim’s inventory to be played. Concertos can be played on the drums in public to earn simoleons, similar to how busking works in City Living.

Play Drum Mods

Play Drum Mods

A functional CC drum set that has animations and sound pulled from The Sims 3, and while it won’t bring your sims any closer to forming a working band it does give you a new piece to add to the selection of instruments the game offers. Drumming even has its own skill, making it a pretty well-rounded CC instrument to have.

Music Festival And Concert Mod

Music Festival Concert Mod

If you missed out, Sims Sessions was a limited time music series that saw concert events popping up in The Sims 4 featuring musicians Bebe Rexha, Glass Animals, and Joy Oladokun. It only lasted a brief amount of time but with the Music Festival and Concert Mod, Sims Sessions becomes a weekly event happening every Sunday. In addition to the return of the music series, the Sims Sessions stage is now available for purchase from Buy Mode, after which your sims can “rent” the stage for 24 hours and perform piano, guitar, or singing. Its also possible to hire NPCs for a private show. Additionally sims can hold a concert without the stage objects if they have a microphone, and the crowd reaction will vary depending on the kind of “venue” your sim performs at. With this mechanic you can have sims playing other instruments behind your singing sim and while it won’t sound great to us, the audience will react accordingly and you can get believable screenshots out of it.

Road To Fame Mod – Professional Singing

Road To Fame Mod Professional Singing

The Road To Fame mod has been growing over time to add more and more features all relating to the journey of growing famous. You cannot have a full band performing with this mod but as of the V0.4 release your sims can put their Singing Skill to good use by letting them write, record, release, and perform their own music! When they get good enough in the skill they’ll be contacted about performing concerts, further pushing them along the road to fame.

You can see this part of the mod in action as part of this Livestream, starting around the 44-minute mark. There are also release notes on Sacrificial’s Website from when V0.4 was first launched, with more details on what the mod contains.

Due to the size & scale of the mod and how it grows with each update we highly advise you to read all documentation before downloading.

In Conclusion

Sadly there’s no fully-encompassing Band mod currently available for The Sims 4. Maybe it’s a concept we’ll see in the future? But for now, we have a handful of musical mods to help your sims feel like they’re a rock star even if it’s just from performing in their neighborhood. What musical instruments would you like to see added to the game officially? What’s your favorite Simlish song? Let us know in the comments below, and happy simming!

  1. Too bad you can’t play or jam together and then became a band like in Sims 3, there was also that Simport. I hope that all come back in The Sims 5 (or maybe 6), now we can only play it via mods, it’s funny and it is a great job they create mods, but it is not the same.

    • We can relate to your thoughts, Marco! The introduction of bands in The Sims 3: Late Nights was one of the things we really enjoyed. The adding and removing of team members, and the practice sessions were so nostalgic!
