SuprFan Origins
Let's talk a little bit about super fans and artists communities. We work for one of the Largest publishing companies in the world here in Nashville. About four years ago, they brought us into work with them on some of their legacy artists, Burt Bacharach, Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, Bob Dylan type brands. The world they came up in the seventies, sixties, seventies, and eighties and that WORLD is largely gone. The dinosaur record label model, they brought us in to help them think through a way to kind of reinvigorate their audience. If you're into Burt Bacharach, that's what you care about. If you're into Bob Dylan, that's what you care about. The origin story for super fan really started there and then.
