Lanyard is a web, mobile and Spotify app that allows you to create a visually stunning online journal of your live music history. We started Lanyard as an R&D project within RetroFuzz after prototyping the idea at a Music Hack Day in Gothenburg. It quickly gained momentum so we formed a team around it and worked on it around agency work. Since then, we've Beta launched at the Vans Warped Tour, taken it to SXSW and Los Angeles, been featured on The Next Web, Evolver.fm, Netted and built a passionate worldwide userbase of live music fans that generate amazing engagement statistics."Your concert-going history tells and interesting story. But before you start digging up ticket stubs, take a look at Lanyard, a beautifully designed concert diary site for anybody who takes more than a little pride in their live show resume." Netted"Lanyard has a beautiful interface and plenty to offer. It far surpasses what I would’ve been able to do with a Moleskine notebook, a Tumblr account, and my fading memories." Evolver.fm"I still wish I could keep a record of every concert I’ve attended. Lanyard is a new service that sets out to fill that need. It’s a beautiful way to keep and share memories of the gigs you’ve been to..." The Next Web
