Not a music person but most of my music friends would talk about how "band friendships are the most paper thing friendships you can have". It seemed like a pattern, it's hard for me to understand how this can happen, I can't really explain it. What I can add is that you're not the only one going through this, for whatever solace that can bring.
I have played in dozens of bands, possibly over 100. I have been in 2 bands where I’m still friends with anyone from them now that we’re done. Most musicians are extremely good at having a casual-seeming quasi-professional friendship and then just never talking to you again unless they see you in public. It’s kind of part of the gig of playing with a ton of groups all the time
