Bueno Vista Social Club legend, Omara Portuondo has launched a Facebook competition to increase her fan community and drive sales of her new album ‘Omara & Chucho’.  The new album sees her collaborate with much-revered cuban pianist and long-standing friend, Chucho Valdes.

Paris Panda designed and developed the Like-gated Facebook Page, which allows fans who have liked Omara Portuondo’s Page to enter a competition to win signed albums, DVDs and framed photographs.  Paris Panda all supported the Omara and Chucho release with an Online PR campaign.

After each gig, a new photo is added to the gallery the following day for fans to visit and search for their face in the crowd.  If they are lucky enough to spot themselves, they can tag their face to win signed copies of the album.

Integrating Social Media tools with live events is proving a great way of getting the fans talking about the Professor.   35,600 users have engaged with the app so far. The tour picks up again in February 2011.

Across the 15 day campaign, an album a day became available from Bryan’s back catalogue.  Users were encouraged to tag themselves if they had ever owned it in their collection. They could then engage in discussions about when they bought it and what their favourite tracks were. The user was invited to ‘Like’ the album, and spread the word through Facebook Share. The App encouraged users to engage with each album in a number of ways and generated a quarter of a million impressions through their news feeds.  This led to a 30% rise in Facebook fan numbers.

The cutting edge ‘Tweet The Lyrics’ app used Twitter’s API, enabling the fan to sign in to the App with their Twitter account and race to tweet a line of lyrics to win song badges for their profile pictures. Each day a new song from the album is available. The App publishes their chosen lyrics to their Twitter feed along with a trackable RW20 hashtag and album buy link.

The App saw a continuous growth in #rw20 tweets with 18,000 users participating during the campaign which ran daily for 8 weeks.  The photo-tagging app fully subscribed each day, peaking at 9,000 monthly active users and the Video tab saw 11,000  monthly unique visitors at the highest point.  Robbie’s album reached the number 1 spot in the UK album charts.

As an extra reward for James Blunt’s fanbase, Paris Panda also created a ‘James Is Back’ Facebook tab.  The tab integrates a Soundcloud player and video for fans who have ‘Liked’ the fanpage.  It also promotes his new website and lets fans buy the new album.

A video was featured from the band encouraging fans to upload photos of their parties to the app.  The best fan – photo won a private webchat with McFly.

The parties all took place before the official release of the single on 5th September. Whilst using this app, their fans were able to also pre-order the bands new single ‘Party Girl’ and join the mailing list.
