Blue Frog Immersive has brought its catalog of extended-reality concert films to the newly launched XREAL Aura glasses, adding another hardware platform alongside its existing availability on Apple Vision Pro. The free app, available through Google Play, pairs dual 8K video with Dolby Atmos spatial audio to simulate an up-close studio concert experience, according to the company.
The platform’s library includes performances from artists such as Sugaray Rayford, Miss Emily, Dawson Gray, Odds and Steve Hill, several of whom have received Grammy or Juno nominations, the company says. Blue Frog, founded by musician and audio engineer Kelly Breaks, says it shoots performances specifically for XR formats rather than adapting traditional concert footage.
Breaks described the format as aiming to replicate the feeling of being physically present at a show, comparing the experience to an intimate, personal version of the Sphere in Las Vegas. The company says its broader goal is to extend the reach of live music beyond physical venues while preserving the authenticity of in-person performance.
