TAMPA, FL | AUGUST 23rd, 2019 - Tampa-based alternative synth pop band Crownz have released their debut single "Our Way", available on all digital music platforms NOW. Painting a persona of positivity, Crownz shines on the track, uniquely blending together influences in Halsey, Marshmello, and Chvrches. It's almost hard to believe this is just Crownz first release - "Our Way" is effervescent, complete with both sparkling synth pads and 80's-eqsue pop/rock instrumentation. "Our Way" is pure ear candy - a stunning representation of where Crownz is headed. About the single, the band states: Our Way” is a pop synth/EDM anthem that we were able to create with the help of our good friend DJ Tranz! This song speaks to all ages in a way that says get up, get out there and live your life YOUR way without any regrets or second guessing. For us, we feel as if this is our last and only chance to live our lives “our way” before we get too old and have to try and figure out some sort of “plan B” other than music. Obviously, we don’t want to live any other way other than the musician life style and wouldn’t trade it for anything else in the world. We hope you can relate to “Our way” YOUR way. 👑 Everyone wants to stay young. Crownz is no exception. Comprised of 5 ambitious twenty-somethings - Karly, Bryce, Jake, Christian & DJ Crownz - this vibrant group has been graciously dubbed a modern day “Peter Pan & the Lost Boys," as their music illustrates love, pain and their shared fight against the threshold of adulthood. Continuing the trend, Crownz even defies the pseudo established laws of genres as their sound is not just relegated to a DJ spinning pop in the club circuit. Far from it. Their lyrics and music are a playful fusion of Synth Pop, EDM and Trap combined with analog Rock instrumentation to create a futuristic sound with a hint of ’80s lineage. Jarring synth arrangements, swoops and plucks of airy guitars, empowering vocals and clattering drum claps of a thousand drone armies defines their approach as modern and ambiguous enough to appeal to any rebellion. It should come as no surprise that Crownz matches their stellar sound with a perfectly formulated stage show including syncopated, detailed light displays and non stop energy permeating throughout their raucous performances. Crownz' debut single "Our Way" is available on all digital platforms NOW.

NEW JERSEY, USA | AUGUST 23rd, 2019 - New Jersey-based rock band Triple Addiction have released their new single, "American Heartbreak," out on all digital platforms NOW. Having recently given listeners a taste of their upcoming EP with their last single "Hard To Say Goodbye," the band is showing off one final preview with the "American Heartbreak" single. Their sound is consistent - the band blends together influences of alternative, hard rock, pop/rock, and a hint of country to create their unique flavor. Triple Addiction brings high energy and captivating vocal melodies to their sound, stirring in nostalgia to the mix. A blast of energy to end the summer, Triple Addiction is gearing up for their EP release (also titled "American Heartbreak"), slated for release this fall. About the single, the band states: This song is the title track and second single off the album. The song looks at how we as Americans deal with heartbreak. Usually with every breakup there is the same story, things are going well for a while, eventually a rift happens, and then the “back to the drawing board” feeling hits. This song puts a fun, bar band spin on Heartbreak. Triple Addiction is a rock group from central New Jersey who blends a unique sound of classic rock, southern rock, and country into one new but familiar style of music. The group consists of triplet brothers, Chris Loree (lead vocals/Guitar), Jon Loree (drums/vocals), and Brandon Loree (bass/vocals) as well as their best friend Dominic Zamora (guitar/vocals). The brothers started playing together when they were 12. With each family member picking a different instrument, the brothers instantly took to playing cover tunes, and writing originals. Starting with cover band gigs at local bars and fairs, Triple Addiction eventually worked their way up to playing original gigs at local venues such. In January 2016 the band released their first, self-titled EP which received good feedback from fans and critics alike. Since 2016 the band’s sound has changed, and with lineup changes and life changes, the band has gone in a slightly different direction from their older music. Triple Addiction combines catchy guitar riffs, vocal harmonies, and real down-to-earth lyrics to reach their audience. Their message is to spread positivity, fun, and good vibes to a world so saturated with negativity and anger. Their lyrics are real, their live show is full of fun and high energy, and they are looking to break into the rock and country market. "American Heartbreak" is out on all digital music platforms NOW.

Well, I’d say that I started writing these songs at the beginning of 2017, while I was writing for our “Part II” EP as well. I had a lot of ideas floating around, but no finished tunes for a bit. We booked the recording time for the EP in the early months of 2018 and hopped into the studio in June of the same year. I really kicked it into gear once the recording time was booked and finished 10 songs, leaving us with 7 that we actually wanted to use. But, we have been sitting on the final product since last Fall, so it’s definitely been a lot of planning before we actually released it. What was the most difficult part of the writing and recording process? This time around it was honestly a pretty relaxing experience. We worked with our buddy Matt Brasch, who produced and engineered it, and although he really pushed us to get the most rock solid takes that we could, he also made it pretty easy to do so. One constant challenge during the writing process for our band though is writing the songs in a way where they can actually be performed well. We are a two piece that utilizes live looping in every song and we don’t use any backing tracks or anything like that. So, I have to write the songs with our live setup in mind always. Which song on the EP do you think best represents Shakeout as a whole and why? That’s honestly a tough question because the songs take influence from so many different artists and genres, that I feel as if they all have really unique qualities, which is something I’ve always liked to do with my writing. I guess I would have to say either “Take Time” or “Instincts,” which were actually the two songs we released before the record was even out. I feel as if those songs really capture our energy as a whole. How is this record different from past Shakeout releases? This record is a major step forward for us in my opinion. It tells a story from beginning to end, which is something that we haven’t done before. All of the songs touch on the concept of taking negatives and turning them into positives and how to kind of guide through that. The record starts off really aggressively, but as you listen through all of the songs, the “character” or “voice” becomes more at peace with life and starts to recognize the positives a lot more. Do you plan to tour to promote the EP? Absolutely. We did a little weekender run for the record release shows last week. Up next we have Forget Me Not Fest in New Jersey with Real Friends and a bunch more, then a slew of Fall dates that have yet to be announced. Really stoked to get out there because I feel as if our band really shines in a live setting. Now that it’s out, have you started to think about what comes next? Both of us in the band are constantly thinking about our next step and we have a really long list of tasks to accomplish. Hoping to put out lots of video content in the near future through quite a few different avenues, so be on the lookout for that. Also, going to start writing for an LP very soon. Want to give ourselves ample time to write the best record that we can. www.shakeoutny.com https://open.spotify.com/artist/6YufM8dISSSUTcamOy6tiM www.facebook.com/ShakeoutNY www.instagram.com/ShakeoutNY www.twitter.com/ShakeoutNY  MELBOURNE, FL | AUGUST 16TH, 2019 - Florida-based indie/alternative rock band The Spring have released their new single "Victoria," available on all digital platforms NOW.

Verses washed in calm finger-picked guitar, choruses struck with a fierce melody and lyrics happy and full of energy, but with tried and true meaning and heart. A small-town boy becoming a man. A fan of music becoming a star. Rising ranks, breaking boundaries, becoming yourself. Victoria was written out of a desperation by lyricist Manny Fawcett who dreams of climbing the industry ladder.

Part of a three single series, "Slide" is a follow up to their early 2019 single "Head High," which received recognition from numerous media outlets, including Alternative Press. The track is a relaxed, indie-fused pop track, but don't let the low-key vibes fool you - "Slide" is sure to remain on repeat, a perfect summer hit. After receiving sync placements on various MTV shows, such as The Real World, MAYVE found themselves transitioning and evolving into a groovy, sugary, mainstream indie-esque pop sound. Although "Slide" leans heavier on the electronic spectrum, the band upholds their indie and alternative roots throughout the track's production. Audible growing pains. MAYVE is an alternative pop band from New York. They’re influenced by the music of the late '70s and early ‘80s and apply the lens of modern culture. MAYVE released 2 EP’s thus far as well as a follow up single titled “Neon” and part one of a 3 single series, “Head High”. MAYVE wants their voice, sound, and influence to live on the dividing line of light and dark, speaking real emotions and confusing times on top of an otherwise uplifting soundtrack. There's a long road ahead with plenty more to say. "Slide" is available on all digital music platforms NOW.

The 7-track collection, engineered and produced by Matt Brasch of the Wonder Years, is the perfect representation of Shakeout's wide variety of influences, spanning across pop, punk, and hip-hop music. The band has built their sound on the extensive usage of looping, giving the illusion that Shakeout contains more than two members. All instrumentation on "Balance The Imbalance” was created with the intention of being able to perform all parts live, a distinct characteristic of Shakeout. Bold, unique, and distinct, "Balance The Imbalance" is geared to cater to an extensive audience. Shakeout is a two-piece alt/punk band from Yonkers, NY, that formed at the end of 2016. With experimentation at the core of the band's songwriting, they take influence from a multitude of genres including punk, pop, and hip-hop; ultimately catering to a wide range of music listeners. Through the use of a single guitar, a pedalboard, too many amplifiers, and a powerhouse of a drummer; the band's one-of-a-kind live show incorporates live looping to create the illusion of more than just two A.J.'s in the lineup. With a little more than two years of work under their belts, the band has already self-released three EP’s (Parts I-III), and has played throughout the east coast and midwest including shows in NY, NJ, MA, CT, PA, NC, GA, TN, KY, and OH; including festival appearances at the Launch Music Conference in Lancaster, PA, NYC’s Punk Island, and NY Riverfest.
