Partners with VNUE and DiscLive to Give Fans the Concert “On the Night”

New York, NY, Jan. 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alternative rock band Saving Abel announced that it is teaming up with music innovator VNUE (OTC: VNUE) and its strategic partner DiscLive Network to give fans unrivaled access to the band through “instant recordings” on their upcoming 2017 touring cycle – meaning fans can literally walk out of the concert with what they just heard!  

VNUE, with offices in New York, Memphis, and Los Angeles, has an innovative app platform whereby fans will be able to receive a fully mixed and mastered digital version of the songs they just heard directly to their mobile device even as the show is still going on; and DiscLive, the pioneer in the space of “instant” recording, will be offering fans the chance to purchase that night’s show on a limited edition collectors CD set they can take home that night.

Zach Bair, CEO of VNUE, and also president of DiscLive, said, "We worked with Saving Abel a few years ago and recorded one show with the band.  The fans absolutely loved it.  We are very excited to be working with the band again as they set out on their tour in 2017, and also to be able to offer the music on the innovative VNUE app platform.”

Ryan Conley, manager for Saving Abel, said “We are looking very forward to having this amazing option at our shows for our fans!  We think this is the future of live shows! VNUE has created an amazing way for fans to have a copy of the actual show they attended or missed! We (Saving Abel and A1 Entertainment) are excited to have them on board!”

The VNUE app will be available on the Apple app store and Google play in spring 2017.  The limited edition CDs sets will go on sale in advance of shows that will be recorded, available by clicking through www.savingabel.com, or directly on www.disclivenetwork.com.  Since these are limited edition, once they are sold out, there will never be any more produced – so these will true collectors items.  Fans may reserve their copy to be picked up at the show in most cases, or fans from around the world may have it shipped home directly to them.

Saving Abel, hailing from Corinth, MS, is known for a number of modern rock hits, including “Addicted,” “Drowning,” and “18 Days,” all of which were top 10 hits on US Mainstream Rock charts, and the number one rock hit, “The Sex Is Good.”
