Band Manchester Orchestra uses Turntable.FM to share new tracks with fans
On June 28th the members of Manchester Orchestra took to the recently launched Turntable.fm to interact with their fans.
From the press release:
Each member of the band took turns spinning some of their favorite music and chatted with their fans for nearly four hours. For the lucky fans that got into the session, the event was highlighted by the band sharing two unreleased and previously unheard demos that they recently recorded. The band announced the special session on Facebook and Twitter on Tuesday afternoon informing fans they would tweet the DJ room link out at 7:59 PM EST. The room immediately filled upon announcement and quickly became one of the highest trafficked rooms on the site. The band plans to hold additional DJ sessions on TurnTable.FM in the coming months.
Entertaining and timely, though Turntable.fm remains closed only to the US visitors (I must confess that I didn't see it coming using the service just two weeks ago).
