Sound of Summer 2025

 Crash Adams’ pop songs carry the same kind of mood-boosting power as a hit of pure dopamine. After years of developing their magnetic personalities on social media, the Toronto-bred duo brought their energy to the world with the video for their nostalgic breakthrough single “Give Me a Kiss.” The duo has organically built an online fan base and found their niche with videos highlighting their positive attitude, vibrant suits and iconic red couch from Crash’s grandmother’s house. 2024 was a breakout year for Crash Adams.  The group have taken their music around the world, with stops in Dubai, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines.  In addition to these international stops, the band completed a North American headlining tour that included a sold-out show in their hometown of Toronto, Canada.  With fresh music on the way, it’s only a matter of time before Crash Adams makes their way into your living room!

Fusing the grandeur of the theatre with the raw energy of rock and roll, The Scarlet Opera – a five piece band hailing from Los Angeles - has managed to capture the hearts of critics and audiences alike since emerging on the scene in 2022.

Led by lyricist and frontman Luka Bazulka, whose authentic narrative and vocal prowess are matched only by the musical talents of band members Colin Kenrick [keyboard], Daniel Zuker [bass], Justin Siegal [drums], and Chance Taylor [guitar], the band’s origins are tied to one fateful night when Colin, upon witnessing Luka perform an inspiring solo vocal set, enlisted longtime friends and seasoned musicians Daniel, Chance, and Justin to provide a new dimension to what was already brimming with potential. Word of packed venues and a captivating live show soon drew the attention of multiple major labels and upon signing with Republic Records, the band turned to hit songwriter and producer David Stewart [BTS, Jonas Brothers, Shania Twain] to collaborate, inspire, and further ignite an already growing fire.

Manwolves has evolved into one of Chicago's most compelling musical forces.

Since their formation, Manwolves has emerged as a powerhouse, accumulating over 65 million plays across platforms.
