Broadside Release New Single, “Cruel” Featuring Brian Butcher of The Home Team

Leave a comment

Richmond, VA pop rock outfit, Broadside dropped their brand new single, “Cruel” featuring The Home Team’s Brian Butcher as they kick off on a huge tour together this Spring.

Lyrically, the new track tackles facing your fears when it feels like the world is working against you. When asked about the song, Broadside frontman Ollie Baxxter said, “For years, I’ve allowed my dreams to slip out of my hands from things I can’t control. “Cruel” as a song, is about hitting the nail on the head, allowing yourself to be washed out in the headlights of oncoming traffic. If you’ve got something to lose, the world is cruel, or it can be. So hold on tight.”

The music video, directed by Sam Link, finds Broadside posing as hotel clerks engaged in a high stakes heist! Be sure to catch Broadside and The Home Team on tour together this Spring with Honey Revenge. Check out the dates below and grab your tickets while they last!

Between You & Me Release First Independent Single “Nevermind” & Video

Leave a comment

Australian powerhouse Between You & Me are “searching for the California kinda vibe” with the release of their latest single, “Nevermind,” the band’s first as a newly independent band.

Since loudly departing Hopeless Records last year, BY&M have drummed up some serious attention and huge tour slots for the rest of 2023, ready to take on the future with grace and determination. “Nevermind” is a heavily sarcastic, kiss off party anthem that frontman Jake Wilson says “perfectly captures the spirit of our band and our live show.”

The music video is full of fun tour footage from their last run across the USA. The guys skate through Beverly Hills, leap frog down the Santa Monica Pier, and hit the beach for a vibe-y, Summer video. Our favorite cameo is Matty Healy of The 1975 who rolls through in a classic red convertible when you least expect it!

“Nevermind” comes out ahead of Between You & Me’s North American tour with Real Friends and State Champs that we guarantee will be a night you won’t forget! Check out the tour dates below and grab your tickets while you can.

“Let The Bad Times Roll Tour 2023” Ft. The Offspring, Sum41, & Simple Plan Kicks Off August 1st

Leave a comment

I’m not saying that we spoke this tour into existence but we kinda spoke this into existence.

Chloe Moriondo Dazzles NYC’s Irving Plaza

Leave a comment

Chloe Moriondo proved that she’s a popstar when she brought her “Suckerpunch Tour” to NYC’s Irving Plaza this week. Kicking off the show with the campy “Popstar”, “Knockout”, and “Celebrity”, Chloe was a ball of energy criss crossing the stage like a veteran performer.

“Suckerpunch” is a rare record filled with early 00s pop references and interpolations, sickly sweet hits like “Fruity” and “Cdbaby<3” while wearing it’s candid heart on their sleeve on tracks like “Cry” and “Hearteyes.”

Chloe bared her teeth with the fans when asking who’s had their heart broken before launching into “Hell Hounds” and the ultra angsty kiss off track, “Trophy.”

Going for a costume change, Chloe played the ringleader extraordinaire during “Hotel For Clowns” and “DRESS UP” that reinvigorated the crowd energy that carried through the encore.

The fans gave as good as they got and at one point, helped Chloe crowd surf from stage to the middle of the venue before gently setting her down to part the crowd so she could get back to stage!

Be sure to stream Chloe Moriondo’s latest record, “Suckerpunch” on your favorite streaming platform or pick up a box set with exclusive merch HERE!

Album Release

State Champs Return With New Album, “Kings Of The New Age”

Leave a comment

NY State’s own State Champs are here to stay with their new album, Kings Of The New Age and are proving they belong here!

With the same energetic pop punk sound with a fresh twist, the guys know how to write THE catchiest hooks that will stand the test of time. In classic State Champs fashion, they’ve put together a record that we want to blast in our car stereos as loud as we can crank it with the windows down driving around town all Summer long!

Featuring guest vocals from friends like Chrissy Costanza (Against The Current), Four Year Strong, Ben Barlow (Neck Deep) and Mitchell Tenpenny, the record draws you in and keeps you there with hooks so infectiously sweet – the pop punk greats of the past are already proud to hand the baton off to the guys.

Sprinkled in between tested and true fan favorites “Outta My Head” and the fun, kiss off track, “Everybody But You” (featuring Neck Deep‘s Ben Barlow) are stand out heartfelt love confessions in “Half Empty” and “Act Like That (ft. Mitchell Tenpenny)” showing the bands’ softer side.

“’Act Like That’ is the most ‘out of the box’ song for us on the album,” shares vocalist Derek DiScanio. “We had a lot of fun experimenting with some poppier elements, but it was challenging at first to bring the right level of SC energy to level it out. We hit a moment in the studio when we definitely found that balance, and we’re very excited to share this dance-y, rockin’, lyrically dynamic love song that makes you wanna jump around.”

State Champs’ duality of being able to write hooks that make you want to jump in the mosh pit and scream along to how much you love the person you’re with – or how much you hate them while still being super upbeat and sounding like the sunny side of life is what has set them apart and propelled them to the massive stages they deserve to be headlining with each record the release.

Watch the official video for the latest single, “Eventually” below!

Be sure to grab a pre-order of the new record, Kings Of The New Age, due out May 13th via Pure Noise Records and pre-save it on your favorite streaming platform!

Big Time Rush Drop New Single “Call It Like I See It”

Leave a comment

NOTHING EVEN MATTERS BECAUSE BTR IS BACK!!!!! We’ve been waiting 8 long years to say this, and are beyond excited that Big Time Rush dropped their first new single, “Call It Like I See it” just ahead of their reunion concerts this week. They are ready to do it all over again and will be performing this week at the Q102 Jingle Ball in Philadelphia TONIGHT and then headlining their shows in Chicago on Wednesday and New York City on Saturday! It’s going to be a big night in Philly with their first live show in almost 8 years!

If you are lucky enough to be going to one of the shows, odds are you’ll be among the first to hear their new single live plus some old favorites. The band has been posting behind the scenes videos of them rehearsing dance moves to all of your old favorites, too. You know you’re going to party all night and have the time of your life!

We couldn’t help but notice the publishing credits on Spotify for the new song are listed as “Bought the Rights 2021.” It looks like Kendall, Logan, James, and Carlos will be calling it like they see it for ALL their new music!

Music sounds better with Big Time Rush back and we’re hoping they’re just getting started and news about their 4th album and a full tour are on the way. Until then, we’ll be playing the new track on loop 24/7, driving around with the windows down until we blow our speakers out.

Stream or pick up a copy of “Call It Like I See It” on your favorite platform and check out Big Time Rush’s upcoming tour dates here.
