iHeartMedia is partnering with audio creative agency Jingle Punks for what it’s calling National Jingle Day. On Monday, new jingles will debut from the ACLU, Aloe Gloe, Axe Hair, Band-Aid Brand Adhesive Bandages, Chase Freedom Unlimited, Glade, Outback Steakhouse, Suave, Ziploc, and others. The brands collaborated with iHeart and Jingle Punks to script, record, and produce 13 original jingles back-to-back in 13 hours. Select jingles will air nationwide on December 26 across hundreds of iHeartMedia stations.
As part of iHeartMedia’s National Jingle Day, Barry Manilow will be the first-ever honoree inducted into the National Jingle Day Hall of Fame for his voice work on iconic brands such as McDonald’s, Band-Aid, KFC, and State Farm. Manilow said, “I’m honored to be the first inductee for the National Jingle Day Hall of Fame. I’ve been writing and recording jingles for more than 45 years and they’re always the cornerstone of popular and recognizable marketing campaigns. Jingles have a way of getting stuck in our heads and I’ve worked with dozens of brands that can attest to the power of a catchy tune.”
