Xbox Live link with Ibiza Rocks this summer

Xbox today celebrates another exciting partnership with Ibiza Rocks Hotel as it announces plans to exclusively deliver Ibiza Rocks music content including performances and backstage footage throughout this Summer’s stellar line up of the biggest bands and breakthrough artists.

This year sees the return of the Xbox Social to the Ibiza Rocks Hotel, allowing guests at the party island’s favourite hotel to sample the very best in music games on the ultimate entertainment console. In partnership with Guitar Hero World Tour, Xbox LIVE fans will be able to watch HD footage** of the summer’s hottest action directly through their Xbox for an exclusive period of time.

Fans will be able to catch all the poolside performances and behind the scenes action from Ibiza Rocks including Calvin Harris, The Enemy, Dizzee Rascal, Vampire Weekend, Klaxons and many more hot acts in full HD throughout the summer on Xbox LIVE before the shows land several days later on www.xbox.com.

Kicking the summer off in true style are the Ting Tings, who, following a set by pop sensation Frankmusik, were warmed up by a blistering DJ set from Radio 1’s Zane Lowe in the first edition of “Xbox 360 and Guitar hero World Tour Present: Ibiza Rocks”.
