Gig-focused recommendation service Songkick has now finalized a round reportedly touching $1.1 million, according to details emerging over the weekend. Songkick chief executive Ian Hogarth recently confirmed the infusion, and VentureBeat offered the $1.1 million estimate. The round reportedly includes participation from SoftTech VC and the Accelerator Group.

The company is also dabbling in a number of developmental concepts, including an online band ranking. The Alexa-style chart is based on blogging activity, Amazon rankings, and other metrics.
