AmieStreet, Buzznet, Last.fm and 6 more All Join Expanding ArtistData Network
(CHICAGO) – Successful touring musicians need to maintain relationships with fans across an ever-growing number of social networking sites. Keeping up can be a full-time job, forcing artist to spend more time sharing updates than making music. ArtistData solves this dilemma, allowing artists, labels and managers to post consistent information on any site in the ArtistData network through a single management interface.
ArtistData is a free service that allows artists and managers the ability to post information only once and have it updated across many online destinations simultaneously, including Eventful, Jambase, MySpace, Pollstar, PureVolume, ShowClix, VIRB and recently added Last.fm, Mojam and Musi-cal. ArtistData's synchronization network continues to expand and will soon include AmieStreet, Buzznet, Beta Records, Famecast, indie911 and Hoooka.
“It's a great time to be a musician because there are more resources than ever before for artists to use to promote their music. However, the availability of all this exposure is both a blessing and a curse, because it requires artists to regularly post identical information from one site to the next,” says Brenden Mulligan, the president and co-founder of ArtistData. “We aim to fix that.”
The beta version of ArtistData also includes a feature called Local Listings, which enables musicians to effortlessly submit their show information to local newspapers and other media directly through the ArtistData interface.
“Musicians should be spending their time on more important things, like making music,” Mulligan says. “They've spent countless hours doing all of this leg work the old way and are extremely excited about how much this tool will impact their daily lives.”
ArtistData plans to build upon its simultaneous synchronization in the coming months, adding new tools for blog, news and profile management.
