      “

      We're in the business of making new fans, and Marquee is a powerful tool to reach them. The numbers are staggering – we're seeing deep listening through an entire album or more. I look forward to running more campaigns.

      CASE STUDY

      How DRAMA used Marquee to grow their fanbase

      CONTEXT

      Since forming in 2014, Chicago-based duo, DRAMA, had released a series of EPs and were preparing to drop their first album, “Dance Without Me."

      GOAL

      They wanted a tool that would help them develop their audience. DRAMA worked with their label and distributor to run a Marquee, giving them a way to reach people who had shown interest in their music and make them more engaged.

      PERFORMANCE

      Marquee helped DRAMA take their audience to deeper levels of fanhood — 25% of listeners who saw a Marquee saved or playlisted at least one track from the album, showing intent to listen again. And, each listener didn’t just stream a few tracks, they streamed an average of 17 tracks, much more than the entire album.
