TOTALLY AMP’D, Mobile App Series Aimed At Tweens, Launches, Features Original Jingle Punks Music!

There’s nothing like being part of something innovative, and flat out cool.

Which is why we’re so psyched to be a part of Totally Amp’d, the first mobile-based series aimed at tweens. The series tells the story of five teens who aim to form a pop supergroup. The best part (to us, at least)? The series features the talented cast performing original music written by our very own Jared Gutstadt.

Totally Amp’d consists of ten ‘appisodes’. The first ten-minute appisode is free. After that, a one-time fee of $4.99 unlocks not only the remaining nine installments, but also a plethora of interactive features. Remix options and the opportunity to design artwork and detail the band’s aesthetic are just some of the many features with which users can create custom content.

Congrats to all involved with Totally Amp’d, especially the producers of Totally Amp’d: Toronto-based Shaftesbury and its digital media arm Smokebomb Entertainment. Get the app today, and watch the first episode below!

Some of the most fun we’ve had recently here at Jingle Punks HQ has been writing and recording the theme song to Bayou Billionaires, the new CMT show that follows, you guessed it, a newly rich Louisiana family.

Bayou Billionaires premiered on Saturday, January 21st, and the numbers are worthy of a billionaire. According to TV By The Numbers, Bayou Billionaires ‘earned a .72 among P18-49, and averaged 724,000 viewers among the same audience according to early Nielsen reporting,’ making it the highest-rated original series telecast in CMT’s history.

Congrats to all involved! Jingle Punks is proud to be part of the success. As the Bayou Billionaires theme song says, how ya like me now?
