FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Breathe Carolina & Candyland Come to The Wilbur
WHAT: On Monday, November 10th, 2014, Breathe Carolina & Candyland are coming to The Wilbur in Boston’s historic Theatre District.
Breathe Carolina:
Since first bursting on to the scene in 2008, Breathe Carolina has struck an inimitable alchemy between electronic music and rock, vaulting them continually ahead of the curve and into a lane of their own. That hybrid transformed the group into a cross-genre sensation with their platinum-selling 2011 breakout single “Blackout” from Hell Is What You Make It, which garnered the band a Top 20 Top 40 hit, coverage from The New York Times, USA Today, a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and prime placement across MTV’s networks.
It’s follow-up Savages sees the unit once again treading boldly into fresh territory, delving heavier into the electronic dance world while staying true to their rock roots, a combination that sounds equally at home in a club, or lighting up packed fields at Warped Tour. Featuring guest vocals from pop artist Karmin, and rock frontmen Danny Worsnop (Asking Alexandria) and Tyler Carter (Issues), Savages solidifies the band’s unique ability to straddle multiple musical styles and blend it into a sound all their own, a sound that is as infectious as it is euphoric – and about to become the soundtrack to your summer.
Candyland:
Santa Barbara natives Ethan and Josie aka Candyland began producing their own original songs back in April of 2011. After becoming the first act to win back-to-back Beatport remix contests (Skrillex “Make it Bun Dem” & Bingo Players “Rattle”) and racking up over 5 MILLION Soundcloud plays, they released their debut album “Bring the Rain” on SPINNIN RECORDS (Jan 21st 2013) which charted:
#3 on the Beatport Overall Releases Top 100
#1 on Dubstep Top 100
#1 on Electro House Top 100
#1 Drum N Bass Top 100
#1 Glitch Hop Top 100
Candyland continues to pave their own lane bridging the gap between Trap, Dubstep, and House music with every original and remix they release.
