NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Five-time Grammy Award winner Wynonna Judd announced last Wednesday the launch of her new online community via the Nashville-based social commerce network, Moontoast.com. The innovative technology provided by Moontoast adds an interactive element to her current website, wynonna.com.

Fans of the country music star are able to directly communicate with other fans, receive Wynonna Judd's content from Facebook and Twitter, access exclusive content from wynonna.com and enjoy broader access to her merchandise and music.

The new community can be accessed by link from www.wynonna.com or directly at http://wynonna.moontoast.com. Fans that sign up for this community before May 14th will be entered into the "Wynonna Calling Sweepstakes" for a chance to win a live chat with Wynonna! Contest details are at the following http://wynonna.moontoast.com/blog_post/detail/id/187.

"Moontoast is honored to be working with an artist who has such a loyal fan base. Wynonna's fans want more than a way to stay up to date on an artist's latest music and events; they want a personal connection with her as well as a vibrant community. Moontoast provides the tools to help her fans do exactly that," said Vice President of Operations Brent Moseng. "We think this new partnership will provide a more effective way for artists to manage relationships with their fans."

"I am always looking for ways to help my fans stay connected to me, my music and even to each other. Moontoast is a great solution that helps to create communities of people who share similar passions," said Wynonna Judd.
