More information on the artists:
ALLAN KINGDOM
Allan Kingdom is an enterprising jolt of energy and gusto, a skilled pioneer for the exhilarating new pack of talented youngsters. He’s cosigned by many, and chosen by a reputable few, but most critically, hell-bent on upgrading not just his own life with the music makes, but yours too.
KING
KING plays with the boundaries of their many influences, throughout each song is the common thread of a certain soulful authenticity. The smooth vibe, intricate production, and harmonic style of their music evolved beautifully in their home studio, a product solely of the three women and a result of their Minneapolis and Los Angeles roots.
KILL THE VULTURES
Kill The Vultures blends their love of grit, jazz, punk and tribal beats with beat poet/rap vocals. This sensibility connected with experimental hip-hop fans and critics domestically, as well as in Europe. Their debut release received high praise, including salon.com who dubbed it “the best underground rap album I’ve heard this year.”
ARE YOU LOCAL? WINNING BAND: HOLIDAE
Holidae is the new project from local R&B singer Ashley Gold and veteran synth savant Garrett Neal. Combining pop sensibilities with futuristic soundscapes and a strong visual element, Holidae will haunt your dreams and soundtrack your adventures. Their debut album will be released April 22, 2016.
