Dave Matthews Band Fan Site

Two of the more high-profile acts that weren’t selling their music as ringtones have given in. The operator scored exclusive access to a handful of Dave Matthews Band’s ringtones made from live recordings, but will later include studio tracks. Van Halen, meanwhile, is making its most popular songs available as ringtones to all wireless operators, but agreed to give AT&T exclusive versions of those same songs for a limited time. AT&T director of music and personalization products Mark Nagel says the Dave Matthews deal was a result of simply communicating the demand.

Dave Matthews Band and AT&T have recently cooperated to produce exclusive Ringtones on AT&T Wireless Phones. In fact, this is the first time that Dave Matthews Band ringtones have become available through any wireless carrier. Starting from Nov. 14, AT&T will provide ringtones from popular songs, starting with the live version of “Ants Marching. Other Dave Matthews Band ringtones that AT&T will provide include: “Don’t Drink the Water”, “Everyday” (Live),”Say Goodbye”, “Two Step”, “Warehouse” (Live),”When The World Ends” (Live).
