Waterparks are on the up and up!  The band are on the road with Sleeping With Sirens and State Champs for the “End The Madness” Tour right now, their debut album “Double Dare” was released last week to high praise, and they just premiered their hilarious new video for the latest single “Stupid For You!”

The video has Awsten, Otto, and Geoff acting as a three man boyband which is actually kind of perfect.  Complete with headsets and matching outfits, Waterparks as PARXBO!Z* could be the next instrument playing boyband to invade your bedroom wall space!

Fly By Midnight Release New Single “Vinyl”

Leave a comment

New York pop duo Fly By Midnight just released their latest single and it’s a TUUNEEE!!  “Vinyl” was one of our favorites that we heard at their show in NYC in September, but we can’t get enough of these guys.  Justin Bryte and Justin “Slavo” Slaven have cracked the pop code to create songs that make you want to groove like they used to!

The new single dreams of a time when we used to meet at bars without swiping right first, exchanging numbers on napkins instead of snapchats, and dancing to your favorite records because we all know vinyl sounds better!  Watch the official lyric video for “Vinyl” below.

Don’t ditch the MP3 just yet – pick up a copy of “Vinyl” on iTunes or Amazon now.

The Vamps Premiere “All Night” Video

Leave a comment

Our favorite Brits are back with a brand new video for their latest single “All Night” and the video is super cool!  The Vamps teamed up with Matoma for their latest single that’s causing a splash with fans for a good reason.  This song is very different from The Vamps we’ve come to love but Brad, Tristan, James, and Connor are growing up and so is their sound.  “All Night” showcases how musically versatile these guys are!

The video concept was a simple one, follow the band on a typical off day from tour including bike riding, skateboarding, and shooting some hoops with friends.  The catch here – the point of view changes each time someone fist bumps or high fives someone else.  Trust us, it’s way cooler than it sounds!  Watch the video for “All Night” below!
