O-Town Launch Kickstarter for New Album

Leave a comment

We had the chance to see O-Town in 2016 at Mixtape Festival and were blown away by how incredible they looked and sounded.  Their set was SO MUCH FUN (who doesn’t love “Liquid Dreams”?), their outfits were on point (overalls + tie dye = yes), and the new material they played was excellent.  We’re excited to hear they are working on their 4th studio album after wrapping up their Summer tour with 98 Degrees.

O-Town launched an official Kickstarter campaign for the album, the first album in the band’s history to be free of any label, funded fully by fans for fans!  The campaign was a success – they met their goal in an incredible 7 hours!  You can still support the album campaign and earn prizes like the overalls Trevor wore on the My2K Tour, the chance to be their tour manager for a day, or a private O-Town concert.  And of course, you’ll get a copy of the new album when it’s released!  Head over to their Kickstarter page now to pledge your support for the future of boybands.

What do you get when you mix 90s-alt rock, loud guitars, and ethereal vocals?  BIG JESUS.   These Atlanta, GA natives are ready to kick down any walls you’ve built around your music loving hearts and they’re hoping you’ll invite Big Jesus into your life.  And trust us, you do!

Watch Citizen Føur’s “Deja Vu” Cover

Leave a comment

Our new favorite boyband, Citizen Føur, just dropped their latest cover video for “Deja Vu.,” by Justin Bieber and Post Malone.  The video features more of those swoon-worthy harmonies we’ve come to love from Citizen Føur!  Why did Conner, Carson, Austin and Josh choose “Deja Vu” for their latest cover?  According to C4: “We’ve been having weird deja vu together then a couple days later the song came out.  At that moment, we knew we have to do a cover of it.”   And we are so glad they did.  Watch their video now!
