Boys Like Girls

Boys Like Girls

These four friends from the Boston area jumped onto the mainstream pop-rock scene in 2006 with the release of their self-titled, Gold-certified debut album which sold over 700,000 copies and features hit singles “The Great Escape,” “Hero/Heroine,” and “Thunder.” With the release of their sophomore album, “Love Drunk,” Boys Like Girls continue their wildly-successful tour schedule, filling concert arenas with a sound that reflects an eclectic combination of the quartet’s musical interests and influences.

“Love Drunk” is a punchy celebration of love’s intoxicating effects, and has been riding the success of its title track as well as the tender ballad “Two Is Better Than One.” The mid-tempo work, “The First One,” is an endearing take on bouncing back from a broken heart.

We The Kings

We The Kings

This pop-rock quartet is known for their infectious joy, high spirits, and camaraderie on stage, performing songs such as “Check Yes Juliet,” “Secret Valentine,” and “Skyway Avenue” from their self-titled debut album. “We the Kings” hit the top spot on Billboard’s New Alternative Album sales chart and boasted over 2 million track downloads. Their sophomore album, “Smile Kid (S-Curve),” released in December 2009, is all about living life as happily as possible.

The new album features popular single “Heaven Can Wait” as well as a collaborative effort with teen sensation Demi Lovato on the pop ballad, “We’ll Be A Dream.” The album oozes with feel-good melodies and catchy choruses about tales of young love that are perfect for summer listening. We the Kings pride themselves on their deep connection with their fans through a strong internet presence and following of their blogs, tweets, and Myspace activities.
