They just wrapped two successful tours supporting The 1975 & St. Lucia and appearances at Sasquatch and Firefly Festivals this summer. The title track from their GOLD EP is currently featured in a national Cadillac commercial.

WOLF GANG initially formed as a solo project by London musician Max McElligott, but has since evolved into a full-on collaborative effort between its four members. WOLF GANG’S debut album, Suego Faults, produced by Dave Fridmann (MGMT, The Flaming Lips) came out in 2011 to critical acclaim. The band have quickly cultivated a dedicated and avid fan base through three years of nearly non-stop live performances, including headline tours where the band sold out the historic Troubadour in Los Angeles, support slots with Coldplay, Florence + The Machine, The Killers and most recently Bastille.

The band is hitting the road in anticipation of their sophomore album with British music producer Flood (U2, Nine Inch Nails, PJ Harvey) who recently won the award for producer of the year at the Brits.

SECRET SOMEONES is the new project from NYC singer/songwriters Bess Rogers, Lelia Broussard, Hannah Winkler & drummer/multi-instrumentalist Zach Jones. Drawing inspiration from bands like Weezer, Talking Heads, and the entire Tom Petty catalog, the band is pure songwriting excellence. The band has spent the last several months on the road supporting A Great Big World, Marc Broussard and Ingrid Michaelson including an upcoming appearance at SummerStage in Central Park. SECRET SOMEONES will release their “I Won’t Follow” EP on Aug 26 with a full album to come in 2015.

“SAY SOMETHING” SURPASSES 100 MILLION VIEWS AND BECOMES VEVO CERTIFIED

MULTI-PLATINUM DUO TAKE THE STAGE ON FOX’S “SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE” ON JULY 16

NEW YORK, July 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — It’s undoubtedly been a great big year for A Great Big World. Their breakthrough hit “Say Something” with Christina Aguilera went six times platinum worldwide, and went on to occupy the #1 spot on iTunes, Billboard‘s Digital Songs Chart, Billboard‘s Digital Track Chart, Spotify, and Shazam in addition to going Top 10 on sales charts in 19 countries. Now continuing this historic year, A Great Big World is the latest artist to officially become Vevo Certified. Their touching music video for “Say Something”has accumulated over 100 million views and counting on the video platform. This is their first video to becomeVevo Certified and yet another incredible achievement in a string of accolades.

In addition, the New York duo of Ian Axel and Chad Vaccarino will take the stage on Fox’s So You Think You Can Dance on July 16 to perform “Say Something”. It’s a special moment for the group as last year’s dance performance of the song not only caught the attention of the world but also the attention of Aguilera inspiring her to collaborate with them on the song.

Along the way, A Great Big World has tirelessly worked to become one of modern pop music’s most astounding success stories. Building on the plaintive piano chords and undeniable melody of “Say Something”, the track became a ubiquitous worldwide hit. At the same time, they were recognized as an Artist To Watch by MTV and a VH1 You Oughtta Know artist. They’ve given striking and stunning live performances at the American Music Awards, The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, The Voice, Good Morning America, The Today Show, Live! with Kelly & Michael, The Rachael Ray Show, Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Logo Trailblazer Awards, and more. They’ve also garnered unanimous critical acclaim.

In the midst of it all, Vaccarino even worked up the courage to open up about his struggles with Multiple Sclerosis. Since first being diagnosed in 2007, he’s bravely endured living with the disease, and now he’s spoken up to raise awareness.

It’s been a magical journey thus far for the group. In addition to debuting at #3 on the Billboard Top 200, Is There Anybody Out There? received widespread critical acclaim upon its release in January. Their breakthrough mega-hit with Christina Aguilera, “Say Something,” ignited a fast rise to success back in November 2012. As their profile grew, the single entranced the entire world, eventually selling over six million digital songs at a rapid rate worldwide.

Album available now at their official site, Amazon, iTunes, or a signed copy at Target.com now!
