“I wanted to team up with people who not only had a huge audience and a strong interactive presence, but who felt the same way about music and content as I do – and Corus fits perfectly," said Adler, in the press release.
“Like our audience, Adler has great passion for the music and the artists who make the music,” said Jeff Woods, director of national content, Splice Interactive Media. “He manages to get the story behind the music and gives fans a unique, in-depth look at their favourite bands. With Adlercast we can bring a lot of exciting new rock artist focused, on-camera content to our audience.”
