Hi, it’s Steven from the Music team here.  We have a cool new music app called “Gig Finder” that I would like to introduce to you. Whether you are the ultimate music fan or if you are just looking for something to do, Gig Finder helps you find the best music entertainment near you. Search for concerts and live shows, purchase tickets directly from your mobile and get relevant recommendations based on your personal music tastes and location.

Download the app for free here

Whether it’s international music starts or upcoming buzzmakers, the Gig Finder brings you smart recommendations and helps you find all the information you need to get the best tickets for music events right from your phone. The Gig Finder will also fetch you the directions to the event with a direct link from Maps and allow you to share the information about the gig to Facebook or via SMS or email. Events link directly to the artist pages in Nokia Music Store / Ovi Music (when available in your country) so you can preview or download music before or after seeing your favourite artists live.

The first release of Gig Finder includes information about gigs in United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and Ireland.

So, for example, if I were dying to see where Rihanna is performing in those countries, this is what I would do

1. Type in the name of the artist

2. Leave the country and dates blank if I want to see all results.

3. Select SEARCH.

4. Look through the results and choose the venue and date you want.

5. Compare prices and seats and buy tickets directly from your phone.

6. Click MAPS to get directions to the venue.

7. Under the ARTIST tab, click GO TO STORE to get music from the artist to prepare you for the concert.

8. Select the STAR icon to Add to Profile so you can get automatic notifications about this artist and help Gig Finder learn your music tastes for smarter recommendations.

Also, remember that we will continue to develop and enhance the Gig Finder based on your feedback, so please let us know of any improvements you would like to see to make it even easier to bring you closer to the music and artists you love.

Gig Finder works with Nokia devices based on S60 5th Edition: N97, N97 mini, X6, 5800, 5530 & 5230.

Cheers,
Steven

PS. Gig Finder will also be available at the Store soon!
