“We felt like it was time that fan bases across all genres of music get the love and recognition they deserve,” said series creators and executive producers Keltie Knight and Jodi Roth. “SUPERFAN gives celebrated musical artists a chance to honor their fans by engaging with them one-on-one and surprising them with once-in-a-lifetime prize packages. It’s a feel-good show that everyone will enjoy.”

“SUPERFAN showcases your favorite artists while celebrating their biggest devotees! This show perfectly captures the energy of concert vibes and competition. As a host, I get to meet music icons and watch everyday fans compete for a dream prize,” said Nate Burleson, series co-host. “You will dance, laugh and even cry by the end of each episode, but more importantly, you’ll walk away a superfan yourself.”

The series is produced by Raquel Productions, Inc. Jodi Roth, Keltie Knight and two-time Emmy® Award-winner Jack Martin executive produce. Martin also serves as showrunner.
