Dublin-based music and video app WholeWorldBand (WWB) has won the top prize at the 2014 Eircom Spider Awards as well as winning the awards for best app and innovative use of technology in digital marketing.
WWB is a free iPhone and iPad app that allows anyone to easily make music and videos that can be shared and enjoyed worldwide.
The app already has users ranging from Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones, Stewart Copeland from The Police and Dave Stewart from Eurythmics to thousands of beginners and up-and-coming musicians collaborating together.
Launched at the end of last year, the app is now live in over 100 countries on the Apple App Store.
WWB acts as a virtual recording studio: users pick a recording session and contribute a vocal, instrumental, visual, or anything they feel like adding using just the camera and microphone in their iOS device.
They can share their creation via social media through Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Soundcloud and so on. WWB’s aim is to be a major player in how music is created, shared and monetised in the digital age.
Most of its users are between 19 and 34 and can be found in the North America, South America and the UK.
