ABOUT ALY & AJ

Aly & AJ, comprised of sisters Aly and AJ Michalka, have captivated audiences around the world with their stirring harmonies, relatable lyrics, and a unique blend of pop and indie-rock influences. From their early days as Disney stars to their triumphant return to the music scene as independent artists, Aly & AJ have evolved into a force to be reckoned with, transcending genres and leaving an indelible mark on the industry. Their previous album With Love From recorded with a live band at the famous Sunset Sound studio, showcased their genre-spanning artistry, incorporating Americana, folk, country and indie pop, featuring an array of reflective ballads and anthemic tracks. Critics have raved over the album, with Billboard claiming the track “After Hours” “pour[s] one out for the night owls,” while Rolling Stone highlighted and approved the song “Baby Lay Your Head Down.” The California native sisters took the album on the road on their nationwide “With Love From Tour,” which included a milestone performance at Los Angeles’ legendary Greek Theatre for the first time for an unforgettable evening of powerhouse vocals, electrifying performances, and a nostalgic celebration of their remarkable discography. Aly & AJ first burst onto the scene in the mid-2000s with their debut album Into the Rush in 2005, featuring the hit single "Rush." Their music resonated with a generation, blending pop sensibilities with their innate ability to craft infectious melodies. Their roles in Disney Channel projects like "Phil of the Future" and "Cow Belles,” catapulted them into the hearts of young audiences worldwide. The release of their second album, Insomniatic, in 2007 showcased their growth as artists, exploring deeper themes and further curating their musical identity. Spawning hits like "Potential Breakup Song" and "Chemicals React," Aly & AJ ignited the soundtracks of our lives and solidified their status as superstars. After a decade-long hiatus, the sisters officially returned to the music scene in 2017 embracing both their roots and newfound maturity, seamlessly transitioning from pop sensations to indie darlings. Their EP "Ten Years" marked a triumphant return to their original sound, featuring the viral hit "Take Me." Their subsequent releases, including the critically acclaimed EP "Sanctuary" in 2019, showcased a powerful blend of synth-pop, dreamy melodies, and introspective lyrics that resonated with fans old and new. As the duo entered the 2020s, their music continued to evolve, delving deeper into themes of love, mental health, and personal growth. Shortly after, they released their first studio album in 14 years, a touch of the beat gets you up on your feet gets you out and then into the sun. This album contains tracks like "Listen!!!" and "Slow Dancing," showcased a newfound vulnerability and an unapologetic embrace of their true selves. Billboard included the album on their list of best albums of the first half of 2021. It was also listed on The Guardian’s list of the 50 best albums of 2021.

ABOUT BRAXTON COOK

Braxton Cook is an Emmy Award-winning, NAACP Image Award-nominated artist known for his world-class skills as an alto saxophonist, vocalist, songwriter, producer, and composer. With a blend of jazz, soul, and alt-R&B, he has carved out a unique, melodic sound that has made him one of the most exciting voices of his generation. Raised in Maryland, Braxton studied saxophone under the renowned Paul Carr before attending Georgetown University and later transferring to The Juilliard School. By 18, he was already performing in iconic D.C. jazz venues, and soon after, he became a regular member of trumpeter Christian Scott's band, gaining exposure on several of his albums. He also toured and performed with Christian McBride Big Band, Tom Misch, and Marquis Hill. During this time, Braxton was selected as a semi-finalist in the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Saxophone Competition. Braxton's solo career took off with the release of his debut EP Sketch and the subsequent album Somewhere In Between, which earned widespread acclaim and millions of streams. He has performed on major stages around the world, from Coachella to international jazz festivals, and collaborated with GRAMMY-winning artists like Rihanna, Solange, and Jon Batiste, performing on his soundtrack for Pixar’s Oscar-winning film, Soul. Braxton's versatility in both the studio and live performances made him both a sought-after performer and producer/songwriter, including contributions to Taylor Swift’s GRAMMY-winning song “Lavender Haze” and Giveon’s alt-R&B cut “Tryna Be.” In 2022, Braxton signed to Nettwerk and released Black Mona Lisa, an EP that reflects on themes of Black love, excellence, and social justice, particularly addressing the tragic death of Ma’Khia Bryant. His 2023 album Who Are You When No One is Watching? expanded on these ideas, blending emotional depth with social commentary on race, love, and fatherhood. The album garnered critical acclaim from outlets like Billboard, BET, NPR Music, FORBES, and The Washington Post, cementing Braxton as both a "jazz marvel" and a cultural influencer shaping modern music. His new EP, My Everything, was released in late 2024 and he has a new album on the way.

ABOUT CHLOE FLOWER

Chloe Flower is one of the most talked-about pianists in the world today, captivating new generations of listeners and reshaping the classical music landscape. A true multi-hyphenate, she fuses her love of couture with virtuosic performance, creating a signature style that the industry has never seen or heard and redefining what it means to be a classical artist in the modern era. By age twelve, Chloe was studying at the Manhattan School of Music, later continuing her education at the prestigious Royal Academy of Music. As an Official Steinway Artist, she has become a global musical force, gracing iconic stages from Madison Square Garden to her recent sold-out debut at Royal Albert Hall. Her genre-defying performances have included a show-stopping GRAMMY® moment with Cardi B, a powerful appearance on Saturday Night Live with Lil Baby, and featured performances at the 2023 Golden Globes and the Kennedy Center Honors. Most recently, she performed as a soloist with The National Symphony Orchestra in Washington, D.C., and the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. Chloe’s versatility extends beyond the stage. She has co-produced and composed for artists such as Céline Dion, Johnny Mathis, 2 Chainz, Swae Lee, NAS, Babyface and Deepak Chopra. Her scoring credits include Misty Copeland’s documentary, A Ballerina’s Tale, multiple projects for Kevin Hart including NBC’s Hart to Heart, and Paramount+’s On the Come Up. She has also composed original music for and performed in campaigns by Volvo, Krug Champagne, Estée Lauder and more. But Chloe’s greatest passion lies in using her platform for purpose. She has been a passionate advocate for anti-human trafficking efforts since 2006 and has championed music education and the empowerment of women in music. Chloe has established multiple scholarships for young female composers and conductors at leading institutions (including the Royal Academy of Music, Brooklyn Music School, and Manhattan School of Music) in an effort to help bring equality to the classical music space. Chloe currently serves on the advisory board of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime’s Blue Heart Campaign and is the youngest board member of both The Liberace Foundation and the Manhattan School of Music.

ABOUT CIMAFUNK

With a name and image that pays tribute to the Cimarrons – Cubans of African descent that resisted slavery – and music and showmanship that re-embodies funk legends from the last century, the medical-school student turned funk artist has developed into a musical force crafting the sonic future of the island and a global, cultural phenomenon that unites and celebrates blackness across borders, oceans and languages. Performing with La Tribu (The Tribe), his 9-piece band from Havana, Cimafunk has electrified global audiences on massive stages and worldwide temples of music, making a name for himself as one of the great showmen of today. After three consecutive Grammy nominations, a Latin Grammy nomination for “Record of the Year” and becoming the first Cuban born artist to play Coachella, you can find Cimafunk at New Orleans Jazz Fest, performing at the Kennedy Center Honors, lighting up NPR’s Tiny Desk, rocking stages in Japan or Australia, or hanging with the Godfather of Funk George Clinton.

ABOUT DANIEL SEAVEY

For the past near-decade, multi-platinum singer/songwriter/instrumentalist and producer Daniel Seavey has journeyed through varying industry molds and frameworks to ultimately find his creative freedom. His 2025 full-length solo debut album Second Wind, executive produced by chart-topping writer/producer Michael Pollack, marks a journey to craft his solo voice and evolve into the artist he was destined to be. 2024 saw Seavey command some of the biggest stages of his solo career, including a festival debut at Lollapalooza which became amongst the most viral sets of the weekend. Seavey also spent much of the year on the road supporting Benson Boone in the US/UK and Dean Lewis across a widely successful Australia/New Zealand tour before embarking on his latest international headline Second Wind Tour in 2025. Along the way he previewed the album in real-time including fast fan-favorites “Sleeping With The Lights On,” “The Older You Get” & “Gateway Drug.” In 2016, Seavey co-founded Why Don’t We and embarked upon an unbelievable six-year journey highlighted by over 6 billion global career streams, two RIAA Platinum-certified singles, five RIAA Gold-certified singles, two Top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart, and sold out tours with multiple stops at legendary venues such as Radio City Music Hall and more. However by 2022, Seavey was amidst one of the most trying and turbulent periods of his life: weathering family health struggles, professional tumult, and the death of a close friend. The material he wrote and recorded during this time ultimately became 2023’s Dancing In The Dark EP, introducing himself as a solo artist despite ongoing legal restraints keeping his creative ownership in jeopardy. The project was deemed “punchy and experimental” by Billboard, while Rolling Stone further praised Seavey for his “impeccable production skills, stellar vocals, and personal artistry.” Now following an excruciating court process, Seavey has emerged a free artist at his brightest, boldest, and most brilliant. Channeling the spirit of early-aughts pop and rock from a 22nd century perspective, he leaves no stone unturned, writing, playing multiple instruments, and overseeing arrangements, production and mixing. In doing so, he presents an inimitable and irresistible sound all his own.

ABOUT DARUMAS

A year after Latin pop, funk, disco trio DARUMAS (@DarumasBand) burst onto the alt-music scene, and released their debut pop-funk project which garnered the band a first Latin GRAMMY nomination (in the “Best New Artist” category) group members Aldana, Ceci and Vedala delivered an upgraded album “DARUMAS+” which honors the group's songwriting and musical evolution and continues the “groovy Latin funk love letter” with 8-new songs including their new single "Ex-Cusas"; a vibrant play on words that’s a reflective and witty take on failed relationships. Rooted in global sounds and cultural diversity, DARUMAS is composed of Aldana Aguirre (bass, Argentina), Ceci Leon (vocals/guitar, Miami/Cuba), and Vedala Vilmond (vocals, Haiti/Chile). Together, they create a multilingual, multi-genre sound that mosaics their cultural influences and reflects their mission: to open doors, break molds, and groove their way through joy and resistance. Since their debut in May 2024, DARUMAS has taken their sound to new heights: performing at Outside Lands, Lollapalooza Argentina, Rock in Rio, and LAMC, alongside two Premio Lo Nuestro nominations (“Pop/Rock Group of the Year” and “Pop/Rock/Urban Female New Artist of the Year”).
