The challenge:
The brief was to develop a website and blog to showcase the talents of Jeana and Siobhan and to create an interactive online presence which will allow their fans access to their schedule and news.
The blog is also a way for Jeana and Siobhan to provide their fans with a more personal insight into their lives and allows them to upload tour photos and diary entries.

What Jeana and Siobhan say about us
We wanted a site that was easy for us to use and update. We also wanted our site to present us in a young and funky way. We were blown away by the level of effort and interest put into our project by all of the team at PoLR (so much that we even thanked them on our CD cover!). We got to meet the team designing our site and discussed our ideas of what we wanted from our site. The guys at PoLR came back with a website over-and-above what we had asked for and we were hugely impressed with their enthusiasm and creativity.
Thanks PoLR x
Stumble it!
