Radney Foster Breaks New Ground with New CD and Interactive Flash Drive
New set Revival released this week in stores and on special VIP flash drive for fans
Knoxville, TN, August 31, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Texas singer/songwriter Radney Foster was looking for a way to connect with his loyal fan base with the release of his newest project, Revival. While the CD will be available in traditional outlets September 1, Foster is also partnering with Knoxville-based Gigmark Interactive Media to release the collection on Interactive Flash Drive™.
The Radney Foster VIP Interactive Flash Drive contains the new album Revival in its entirety, five new bonus tracks, exclusive photos, and the feature-length (90-minute) documentary Behind the Confessions, directed by Sundance-awarding winning film maker Jeff Horny. The flash drive is in the shape of a traditional backstage pass, and will give fans access to pre-show meet-and-greets and other special events.
“It’s a cool way for fans to get a little something extra,” says Foster. “They love it because they can use the VIP pass to get into the meet and greets…and then go home and have the music, video and other extras right on their computer. And because it’s interactive, I can send out concert announcements and footage from the tour, and they can access it immediately.”
The company behind the technology, Gigmark Interactive Media of Knoxville, TN sees tremendous potential for this new distribution media. “There’s no limit to how artists and companies can use the Interactive Flash Drive™ to stay connected with fans and customers,” according to Gigmark co-founder and president, Parker Frost. “Artists want to have an ongoing, multimedia conversation with their fans, and our technology makes that possible. It’s almost a blend of social networking, direct marketing, and ecommerce.”
Radney Foster’s VIP IFD is now on sale at his website www.radneyfoster.com. Revival, on Foster’s own Devil’s River Records, will be released on September 1 and is available on his website and in fine stores everywhere.
