Music-focused network REVOLT has revealed upcoming programming, partnerships and distribution news to a 500-person audience during its second annual ‘Omnifront.’


"The audience we reach, 'the authenticators,' want their content on every screen, at any time, and REVOLT meets that mandate," said REVOLT CEO Keith Clinkscales. "REVOLT is the fastest growing multi-platform, multi-genre network with unparalleled growth across all mediums and showing no signs of slowing down.”

He said that new distribution partnerships are in the pipeline, adding to its existing availability on Comcast, Time Warner and Verizon FiOS.

"REVOLT delivers access to authentic, groundbreaking music programming and events,” said REVOLT SVP of sales and partnerships, Michael Roche. “Through our insights, creative talent, and unique point of view, we make advertisers an invaluable part of our audience's experience. Our Omnifront is strategically sandwiched between the Upfronts and Newfronts so that both audiences can better understand our multi-platform, technology-driven business model; ultimately attracting brands that are disruptors within their categories.”

It also will team up with Grammy-nominated rapper Wiz Khalifa on a docu-series entitled Day Today, which follows his life, and the network has finalised a partnership with ESPN/X Games (Summer X Games 2015 Austin & Winter X Games 2016 Aspen).
