Nov. 6, 2020, LONDON – Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes bring their ferocious live experience back to the O2 Academy Brixton in an exclusive virtual gig on Nov. 13 at 12 noon pacific/3 pm eastern. The unique, immersive experience, dubbed “Brixton By Request,” gives fans a rare experience to pick the band’s setlist and to chat with the band via interactive screens at the legendary London venue.

The show also features the live debut of tracks from the band’s recently released Blossom Deluxe. The 2015 album received a deluxe reissue to commemorate the 5-year-anniversary of the band’s debut album. The new release includes 15 unreleased recordings and is available in collectible vinyl and CD formats (https://fcatr.lnk.to/Blossomdeluxe).

A global at-home audience can join the action exclusively via the MelodyVR app on smartphones and VR headsets. Groundbreaking live stream technology will transport fans onto the state-of-the-art stage for the one-off performance, allowing them to choose from multiple camera angles to make the show their own.

Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes already have a special history with the music venue. They released their first ever live album 23 Live at Brixton Academy in March 2018, recorded at their huge sold out headline show the year before, where they played every song from their first two albums. ‘Brixton By Request’ represents an epic return and is their first fully virtual show. The very special evening’s interactive elements have never been done before, and will allow The Rattlesnakes’ renowned, electrifying performance to come to life. Tickets are on-sale now: fcatr.lnk.to/BrixtonByRequestTickets.

Frank Carter says, “There are few places like O2 Academy Brixton, a venue where you feel the history every time you walk out onto the stage. Our sold out Brixton show a few years back was wild and we had to create a live album from it. This time around we’re gonna give even more energy to you at home – and can’t wait to get energy back – with our exclusive interactive live show on MelodyVR. See you there.”

Forming just five years ago, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes have already made their mark – with three Top 20 (UK) albums under their belt and sold out shows worldwide. Famed for their raucous live performances, the band, consisting of formidable frontman Frank Carter, guitarist Dean Richardson, bassist Tank Barclay and Gareth Grover on drums, released their debut album Blossom in 2015, and the follow-ups Modern Ruin in 2017 and End of Suffering in 2019.

Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes’ ‘Brixton By Request’ show is exclusively available to watch via the MelodyVR app on smartphones and VR headsets. To be part of the live experience, download the MelodyVR app at on.melodyvr.com/app. After purchasing a ticket, a redemption code and simple instructions on joining the stream will be sent.

About MelodyVR

MelodyVR launched in 2018 with a simple mandate: not to replace the live music experience, but to harness the power of virtual reality to get people closer to the music they love.

By using VR technology, the founders realized that they could place fans in the crowd or on stage with their favorite musicians at live events. From epic stadium shows to intimate studio performances, the possibilities are endless: capacity restrictions are eliminated, music lovers can attend otherwise sold-out dates, and the barriers (distance, age, cost, access) that might keep people from experiencing their heroes live are swept away. The result? Artists can reach more fans than ever before, with a level of intimacy which has previously not been possible.

MelodyVR is the only licensed VR music platform and has the world’s largest library of exclusive immersive and interactive music experiences from the likes of John Legend, Kesha, Post Malone, Lewis Capaldi, Cypress Hill, Blake Shelton, Mabel, Wiz Khalifa, Kelly Clarkson, The Chainsmokers and Panic! At the Disco.
