Australian pop punk band 5SOS just released a brand new single in the US called “Kiss Me Kiss Me” and it’s already on repeat in the Secret Fangirl offices. Listen to the new single below!
“Kiss Me Kiss Me” is released on the heels of announcing a second show in Mexico for the band, and leading up to the release of their full length album on July 22nd! Pre-order the album on iTunes and receive instant downloads of the first four tracks on the album. Check out the track listing below.

You can also listen to a new song called “Rejects” that’s not even on this album HERE! If it sounds like an outtake from All Time Low’s album “Dirty Work” that’s because 5SOS have been spending a lot of time with front man Alex Gaskarth writing songs and generally learning how to be punk rock grown ups.
Olivia’s music is super fun to dance to and definitely the perfect summer soundtrack. Her new single “Parachute” (co-written/produced by none other than Nick Jonas) is out now on iTunes and Amazon.
Come out to a Somerlover meet up and you’ll know why Olivia is the sweetest popstar to emerge in recent years!
We hope you’ve been voting for Olivia in the Macy’s and iHeartRadio Rising Star Contest — this is the final week to vote!

British band The Vamps (yes band, NOT a boy band) played to a sold out crowd at NYC’s Highline Ballroom on Sunday. The show was part of the MTV Artist to Watch Series, which has recently featured artists such as Austin Mahone and Hunter Hayes. We were thrilled to have the chance to see them again! This wasn’t their first time playing in NYC: Back in February, they played the Gramercy Theatre with AJR. Since then, The Vamps released their debut album “Meet The Vamps,” which has been as high as #2 on the charts in the UK, and have been all over the world in support of their album.
The quartet, Bradley Simpson (lead vocals, guitar), James McVey (lead guitar), Connor Ball (bass) and Tristan Evans (drums) really mesh well together considering they found each other via social media about 3 years ago! Each member has their own unique style and musical taste (James for example is a fan of country stars like Dan + Shay), yet the music The Vamps create is pure, catchy pop rock at its best. The band’s musicianship, harmonies, and talent show that this group is more than just another band creating a frenzy among teenage girls.
Their high energy performance had the crowd dancing from start to finish! The Vamps’ set featured all of their singles, including the latest “Somebody To You,” and the first song the band ever wrote together, “She Was The One.” The crowd was singing along to every word, which is impressive for a band whose album hasn’t even been released in the US yet! They have a great stage presence, interacting with each other and also with the lucky fans in the front row!
The Vamps also performed solid covers of The Killers’ “Mr. Brightside,” Simon and Garfunkel’s “Cecilia,” and a fun, rock version of Jason Derulo’s “Trumpet.” When the crowd started chanting “take it off,” Tristan turned it into a jam session showcasing all of their musical talents, as Brad told the audience “let’s make some music together!” If you haven’t met The Vamps yet, get ready: they are most definitely the Artist to Watch in 2014!
Setlist:
Wild Heart Last Night Somebody To You
She Was The One
Mr. Brightside (cover) Girls on TV
Trumpets (cover) Can We Dance
Cecilia (cover) Watch our video of The Vamps performing “Somebody To You” and check out our Youtube & Tumblr for more photos & video from the show!

In the past, we’ve brought you new bands from across the pond, our favorite boy bands, and even our top favorite country artists. This week, we want to formally introduce you to five bands that rock! All of these artists have a knack for writing a catchy rock song, with their own unique sound.
1 – Born Cages
We’ve featured this Brooklyn based band before and we’ve been lucky enough to see them play more than a few times. As we near the release of their next single, please enjoy one of our favorite songs from “The Sidelines EP“.
2 – New Hollow
This Ohio trio has worked their way into our playlists ever since the 106.1 BLI Summer Jam a few weekends ago. Catchy, grungy, perfect summer throwback sound – New Hollow has it all! Don’t miss these guys on tour this summer. Watch the official video for their single, “She Ain’t You” below.
3 – Action Item Hailing from New Jersey, Action Item aren’t technically new, but that doesn’t stop them from rocking their way onto our Friday Five list! These guys are dropping a new single called “We’ll Be Fine” on June 24th and we can’t wait to hear what they’ve been up to. They’ll be on tour with MKTO all summer so be there or be square!
4 –The Strypes The only band on this list from the UK, The Strypes are definitely ones to watch. After a chance encounter with their name in an ad in Rolling Stone , we checked out their music and instantly knew these guys were on to something. We love The Strypes cheeky lyrics on their debut album “Snapshot” and it’s about time the US has another proper British rock invasion! Watch the official video for “What A Shame” below.
5 – Wild Party One of the five finalists in this years iHeartRadio and Macy’s Rising Star Competition, Wild Party is definitely on the up and up. Their single “When I Get Older” sounds like Rooney and Phantom Planet – just what we need to blast in our car with the windows down and the sunroof open! Catch Wild Party at a free in-store performance at Macy’s in Northridge, CA on June 21st.
Country singer Cassadee Pope is performing on the “Fox & Friends” All-American Concert Series on Friday, June 13th!
