Apps for Bands

We produce a band (or act) specific App, on iPhone and Android, that taps in to a growing trend for mobile App usage to allow you to build greater loyalty and support from your fan base.

It takes all of your usual communication methods, like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, SoundCloud and Reverbnation and puts them together in one place.

What we offer

  • Customised Mobile App, with side scrolling menus. (We can also provide other front page UI options).
  • An App that is integrated to the band’s social network feeds, i.e. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube etc. Plus any currently unsupported social media will be added at no extra cost.
  • An App that contains a fully integrated SoundCloud player, which can also be plugged into most other Cloud Players, if your band uses anything other than SoundCloud.
  • Integration to Reverbnation for Gig info. The gig’s location is also shown on a map. We also offer integration to other sources for Gig information.
  • Push notifications to connect directly with your fans.
  • Exclusive news to the App.
  • Exclusive audio tracks and videos to the App.
  • Each band is provided with a web portal to add/remove exclusive content for the App.
  • Links to all the band’s music for sale, i.e. on iTunes etc.
  • The band/management get direct input into the customisation process. We work with the band’s creative to get the look and feel of the App right.
  • Also if there are any other features the band wants to add to the App, we’ll look to implement them and work with the band to get it right.
