The Angelina jukebox has the WOW! factor and the proof is in the income, states Blind Tiger boss, Chris Tulloch

Angelina, the market-leading digital jukebox developed by TouchTunes, has received another major endorsement with Chris Tulloch, Managing Director at Blind Tiger Inns confirming income figures that are 25 percent above the jukes that it is replacing, thanks to a ‘WOW factor’ not normally associated with music in pubs.
Based in the North West of England, The Blind Tiger Group, which comprises 15 traditional wet led pubs at the heart of their communities, is benefitting from the considerable impact created by the world’s most advanced jukebox. Chris Tulloch stated: “The Angelina has made a significant improvement to our venues. Notably it has produced really positive comments from the managers, staff and customers wherever it is placed – not something I’d heard of or experienced with any previous jukeboxes.
“When we relaunch a pub, it’s imperative the equipment utilised is in keeping with what is a considerable investment. The Angelina delivers a WOW! factor and as far as I am concerned it is the most stunning wall mounted jukebox of all time and there’s no doubt that the looks are a key element of the product and its appeal.”
The increase in jukebox revenue has been linked both to Angelina’s ease of use and its success in bringing the music offering to the fore, in line with the Blind Tiger Group’s community and entertainment ethos: “Most of our pubs are traditional and wet led so the extensive music selection goes hand in hand with the customer profile,” stated Tulloch. “Because the machine is noticed, it becomes a positive talking point for customers and staff alike. So much so that some managers in our estate have asked for the Angelina to replace their BGM system.”
He continued: “Aside from the music offering this jukebox stands out because no one needs showing how to use it – the ease of use isn’t clunky, it feels natural and familiar. Customers are drawn to the machine by the design and unique lighting and then the software makes the whole experience of playing a jukebox enjoyable and rewarding again.”
Expanding on the success story, James Luck, Commercial Director at TouchTunes UK, said: “The Angelina is a combination of technology, looks, music choice and reliability – all of the features and characteristics that define an outstanding jukebox. What we are seeing at pub companies such as the Blind Tiger is how the Angelina has re-ignited the market’s interest in pay to play music and many of the comments we’ve received from operators, pub companies and licensees alike is that this is what the jukebox experience should be all about. The pub industry is also placing greater emphasis on the look and appeal of pub interiors and the selection of entertainment equipment whether that’s a digital gaming machine or a jukebox, has to fit in and look the part. Older jukeboxes sited next to the latest digital AWP simply do not work.
“Significantly, the outstanding income figures that are consistently being achieved by the Angelina are derived from all forms of payment comprising the TouchTunes app, contactless as well as coinage. The market dynamics and the expectations of the pub customer, in particular how he/she chooses to access and pay for entertainment are changing, with the Angelina equipped to exceed those demands and in the process build income.”
The Angelina is being provided by TouchTunes on a deferred payment plan of just £32 per week which includes fixed music fees.
