Rockfeedback film Everything Everything’s Union Chapel Show for unique live broadcast to iPhone/iPad apps
By: Samuel Smith
We here at Rockfeedback like to keep abreast of all technological advancements, particularly when these advancements are to do with getting music to people. To that end, we thought we’d inform you of a rather cool iPhone and iPad app that’s just been launched with jerky pop peddlers Everything Everything at the helm.
The band will be live streaming their upcoming, sold out London Union Chapel in real time within their own artist-branded app entitled 'Man Alive - Everything Everything: Live at Union Chapel', available to download right now from the app store. The concert will be going live on 15th December and will also be streamed via their official website.
The app is available to download for free to iPhone users from today. For those without iPhones, a simultaneous stream of the concert will occur online - again for free - via an official website (we’ll announce the URL shortly).
Ahead of the show on the 15th, users that download the app from today onwards will also be able to access all these 'pre-gig' functions:
- a chance to win the last available pair of tickets to the sold out concert through a competition (with runners-up prizes including limited edition vinyl copies of the band's much-acclaimed debut LP, Man Alive);
- an opportunity to submit questions to the band - who will answer their favourite selection in a video interview posted a week before the gig occurs (8th December);
- a chat forum, where those attending can converse with fellow fans ahead of the show, or during the gig, or generally regarding anything else;
- links to the band's official sites and for purchasing recorded music.
This design and app will incorporating brand-new technology never previously used before, with Everything Everything serving as the first live act as part of the project. There are some truly great events lined up in a similar fashion for 2011, and we’re beyond excited that we get to broadcast them to you live!
