Reprise Records' Green Day announced today that they are
working with Nokia and AT&T to launch Nokia Music, a new music streaming service offering
consumers free and unlimited access to playlists and songs from a global
catalogue boasting 17 million tracks. To celebrate the launch of Nokia Music,
the multi-platinum selling and Grammy® Award-winning band have created a
series of exclusive playlists and will shortly announce a very special kick-off
concert.

Nokia Music
is a mobile experience exclusive to Nokia Lumia handsets currently available at all
AT&T stores. AT&T is the nation's largest 4G network. Consumers
can stream unlimited music from a suite of over 150 exclusive playlists that
are curated and kept up to date by an expert team of US based musicologists.
The playlists span a wide spectrum of musical genres from underground Detroit
house tracks to New York Philharmonic favorites.
Nokia Music also offers playlists created by global artists
such as Green Day, who are an active part of the service curating their
namesake playlists. Moreover, music fans can create their own personal
soundtrack by selecting the Nokia Music 'CREATE' function that generates a
playlist based on, and inspired by, the artists they love.
Fans will also be able to access three special playlists,
curated by Green Day exclusively for Nokia Music and AT&T. "We
are excited to team up with Nokia Music and AT&T and for our fans to hear¡UNO! for
the first time on our Facebook page," said the members of Green Day.
Jyrki Rosenberg VP of Entertainment at Nokia said: "We
are absolutely delighted to be working with Green Day to launch Nokia Music.
"The USA is the most vibrant and competitive digital
music market in the world - by a wide margin. We have worked extra hard to
ensure our service meets the expectations of the demanding, active and inspired
music fans in the US. I would like to challenge everyone to try Nokia Music and
see just how easy and enjoyable the service is to use."
Green Day is currently preparing for the release of their
trilogy of new albums - Green Day ¡Uno!, Green Day ¡Dos!, and Green
Day ¡Tré! - on September 25th, 2012; November 13th, 2012, and January
15th, 2013, respectively.
