Finnish melancholic dark rock/metal icons AMORPHIS will launch a new Mobile Backstage application on December 28. According to the band, the free application, “which is our official digital fan club, [will offer] much more opportunities to interact with you, our fans, on iPhone, Android, Nokia and Facebook. You will get latest news what’s happening and status updates from each member. You can also get in touch with other AMORPHIS fans all over the world. You can post photos and videos and you’ll get access to exclusive offers on AMORPHIS merchandise items, which might be pretty rare to get anywhere else.”
Launched in 2010, Mobile Backstage is a social music service and mobile app that lets artists and bands “engage” with their fans.
Some of Mobile Backstage‘s features include:
* Social features that allow fans to interact with each other and the artist to share their experiences
* A content management system for web and mobile that enables artists and labels to post band updates, images, video clips, text updates, tour dates etc.
* Integration of content from Twitter and Facebook
* Analytics and stats that provide insights into fans and fan activities
* iTunes Music Store integration
* Location-based events where fans can “check in” to gigs using GPS
