Australian Rock Superstar Shannon Noll To Perform Live, at Two Interactive Who: Shannon Noll, one of Australia's most successful musical performers, will play a live, interactive concert at DeepRockDrive (www.DeepRockDrive.com) to a paying global audience on the broadband Internet. Noll just released his third album, "Turn It Up." After two multi-platinum selling albums, eleven consecutive top ten singles, 4 ARIA nominations, five ARIA #1 Chart Awards and three consecutive MTV VMAs for Best Male Artist, Shannon's career is red hot. Noll first came to prominence as runner-up of the first series of Australian Idol, which led to him being signed to Sony BMG. Since then, he has had more success than any other Idol contestant to date.
What: Noll will be giving two LIVE performances at DeepRockDrive studios in Las Vegas. DeepRockDrive (www.DeepRockDrive.com) is a revolutionary platform that allows any artist to perform a fully interactive concert to a global audience. DeepRockDrive's professionally produced, high-definition, multi-stream shows combine a level of live video and audio quality never before experienced on the Internet, with unprecedented social interaction between performers and fans inside a live concert environment. The service immerses fans in a live interactive concert environment, where they vote together to control the song selection, interact with the performers and watch fully customized shows by personally mixing the five high-definition cameras used during the performance on the fly.
The performance highlights how DeepRockDrive offers any artist, from local Indie performers to global superstars, a newfound ability to reach a worldwide base of fans. The interactive online performances are lucrative for the artists and provide an unprecedented promotional platform. The interactive concert is priced at $6.99, which is split 50-50 with the artist. DeepRockDrive launched at the 2008 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
