Sleep On It are on the verge of a break out and this is not a band you want to, pun intended, sleep on.  The Chicago natives are heading out on tour with As It Is this Spring, bringing their explosive pop punk to a city near you. Drawing inspiration from the heavy hitters of yesteryear that are out doing 10 year tours, Sleep On It are updating everything you thought you knew about the genre.

Having recently signed with Equal Vision Records, the band are finding a new home next to all of your favorite bands.   After forming in 2011 and going through several line up changes, Zech, TJ, Jake, AJ, and Luka are excited to share the trials and celebrations of being a pop punk band with new and old fans alike.  Sleep On It even added a tab on their galactic themed website where you can email the band and tell them where you’re seeing them on tour.  They just might answer you back!  We love the personal touches and direct to fan interactions that the band is using to help make their fans feel like a part the touring life.  Be sure to catch Sleep On It opening for UK fan favorites As It Is and ROAM this Spring!  Check out the tour dates here and get your tickets if you haven’t yet.

Sleep On It just released the official video for “Memorial Day” which is featured on the “Music For Everyone” ACLU compilation benefit project. The project showcases many different artists like Frank Iero (MCR), Taking Back Sunday, Kevin Devine, Allison Weiss, and Anti-Flag coming together as a unified voice for the ACLU.   Watch the video below.

The Stolen Announce New Album And Single “Euphoric”

Leave a comment

New Jersey is known for being a musical breeding ground and they’ve gifted the world with the best and brightest stars from pop and rock alike.  The Stolen are no different.   Last year, they released an insanely solid album but they’ve resurfaced after some hibernation with a new album, “Fragile Heart,” due out May 19th and a fun throwback video for the lead single, “Eurphoric.”

The first track from the forthcoming album is super dreamy with surf rock waves that make you wish Summer lasted forever.  “Euphoric” builds on The Stolen’s past releases and showcases the musical prowess of each member creating a track that could easily become the soundtrack to our Summer!

Surrounded by posters featuring “Back To The Future,” The Cure, and Bowie, the band set up a classic 80s short film for the new single.  The guys are decked in their denim jackets, sneaking out of bedroom windows and meeting up with their friends “Stranger Things” style for a late night bonfire bonding session!

Watch the music video for “Euphoric” below.

Stream “Euphoric” on Spotify now!

The Johnsons Release Music Video For “Scream”

Leave a comment

There’s some kind of magic in a band of brothers – Jonas Brothers, AJR, and now The Johnsons are setting their sights on becoming your new favorite musical family!  Clayton, Chantry, and Connor Johnson teamed up with Tony Fagensen from Eve 6 to produce their latest single called “Scream” blending both pop and boyband elements with some serious guitar solos.  Musically and lyrically, this song hits all the right notes for a Summer time sing along that you won’t feel guilty about any time soon.

The band just released their brand new video for the single and it’s everything we could have wanted.  The cute Summer date video, directed by Connor, features the guys hanging out on the beach, having dinner by the boardwalk and playing carnival games – definitely a throwback to our favorite classic pop videos!  We can’t wait to hear what these guys are working on next but we’re sure it’s going to be just as upbeat, fun, and catchy!

Watch the official video for “Scream” now.

TLC Take Fans “Way Back” With New Single Featuring Snoop Dogg

Leave a comment

The best selling American girl group, TLC, just released the first single from what will be the group’s final album. Chili and T-Boz are staying true to their 90’s R&B roots and aren’t shying away from issues that matter to them.  The single called “Way Back” talks about a relationship that goes, way back and sticks with you through thick and thin.

The Kickstarter funded album surpassed the goal to become the crowd funding site’s most successful campaign, and was backed by fans and celebrities like Katy Perry.  The girls noted this will be their first without Lisa since her passing although T-Boz explained “her spirit will always be present in the music. That will never change.”
