This August, HBO targeted its millennial audience by hosting a pop-up event with Bumble at a $30 million townhouse in Lower Manhattan.

Roots And Wings: Miranda Lambert Partners With Ram Trucks, Easton Corbin Extends Contract

Continuing a partnership that started in late 2014, Miranda Lambert stars in Ram Truck’s latest commercial with her song “Roots and Wings.”

Lambert wrote the song exclusively for Ram’s campaign and Chrysler Group has stated that both the country singer and track were chosen to take the brand beyond their core audience, while still hitting home.

“This campaign is actually designed to broaden the appeal of both Ram and Miranda, beyond our core audiences as we connect with our respective fans in new, meaningful ways,” said Olivier Francois, Chrysler Group’s chief marketing officer.

“In simple terms, the target for our ‘Roots and Wings’ campaign is not a single target. Men, women, all ages, and sure, we hope the millions of die-hard fans Miranda has will like it too.”

No, really.

We do.

So about a month ago when I started seeing these strange adverts for something called ‘Rekall’ with their whole “Tell us your fantasy. We’ll make it real” slogan, I was kind of confused.

Heck, for all I knew, it was some odd country club trying to be a combination of Nectar Island meets A Small World in scene of augmented reality on Innovations-crack a la Disney Orlando. [Read more…]
