Artist To Watch: The Shadowboxers

Leave a comment

The Shadowboxers are on the fast track to the top with endorsements from the likes of Justin Timberlake and Hunter Hayes, even getting the chance to jam with Hunter at the Spotify Spotlight showcase.   The band, consisting of Adam Hoffman, Matt Lipkins, Scott Schwartz, Carlos Enamorado, and Cole McSween, hail from Atlanta, Georgia and are a self-described “soulful pop band” with tons of potential and a bright future ahead.

Their upbeat, R&B twinged country sound and on point harmonies make their powerful debut album, “Red Room” the perfect collection of songs to keep us warm when the temperatures dip below freezing in NYC.

North Of Nine Release New Album “IM@GINE”

Leave a comment

Jackson Guthy’s project North of Nine just released a new album called “IM@GINE” as a New Years present for eager fans.   As Jackson wrote on Facebook, “This album brought me back to the beginning.  Me at my piano making music I love.”  The album is very much in Jackson’s style – think piano driven pop with some jazzy horns and funky beats alongside his unique, raspy vocals.

The album will be available on iTunes and Spotify January 8th but for now, you can listen to the entire collection of songs on SoundCloud below!  Jackson  also enlisted artists to design special album artwork to go along with each track.  Learn more about each artist and the track that inspired them at NorthOfNine.com!

90s, Music, Music Video

Fall Out Boy + Demi Lovato + *NSYNC = “Irresistible”

Leave a comment

The brand new music video for Fall Out Boy and Demi Lovato’s collaboration on the new single “Irresistible” is everything we ever wanted – Demi Lovato on a Fall Out Boy song in a music video that’s an homage to our favorite *NSYNC video!

Patrick, Joe, Andy, and Pete are turned into dolls that nobody wants, just like *NSYNC was overlooked in the original video.

The description for the video says it’s “about the toys that nobody wants that come to life” and form a band of misfits together.   Even better: Wayne Isham, the same director who did the original *NSYNC “It’s Gonna Be Me” video reprises the doll video, and he even brought Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone back for the FOB + Demi collab.

Watch the video below for some serious boyband nostalgia!

Fall Out Boy are hitting the road this Spring on the “WinTour Is Coming” Tour featuring AWOLNATION and PVRIS.  Check out the dates and get your tickets HERE.

Pick up a copy of “American Beauty/American Psycho” on iTunes or Amazon now.
