“Turn your party lights ownnnn,” sings Florida Georgia Line in “Get Your Shine On,” and the lyric is at the heart of the music this terrific country act has been making for the past few years. Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard are small town southern boys, and the songs on their first full album ‘Here’s To The Good Times,’ arrive with a message: let’s have fun. When the guys connected at Nashville’s Belmont University, they knew they had an instant chemistry. From writing to singing, they worked on their partnership, playing all sorts of gigs together. A lot of the creative action took place on the tailgate of Tyler’s truck, where they crafted songs and honed harmonies. A buzz about their skills began pretty quickly. When Jason Aldean cut their “Black Tears,” they knew they were on the right path. Last summer they signed with Republic Nashville and everything solidified. ‘Here’s To The Good Times’ has given us “Get Your Shine On” and “Cruise,” two impressive hits. The second song just got a remix featuring “Country Grammar” MC Nelly – no, Florida Georgia Line isn’t your typical country act. They’re headed in lots of different directions.

Crank up the volume Krewella’s Play Hard EP and from “Killing It” to “Can’t Control Myself” you’ll know that the EDM trio is a full-tilt crew. The group formed in Chicago in 2007 soon after producer Rain Man (aka Kris Trindl) met singer Jahan Yousaf at a house party. Jahan’s sister Yasmine joined them on the day she graduated from high school in 2010, and they went all-in, ditching their day jobs and hitting the studio. Instantly they were mixing and matching insanely insinuating melodies with pumped-up dubstep pulses. The video for “Killin’ It” was their calling card, and they had an immediate impact on the EDM scene — the sexy, energized Yousafs work the front of the stage as hard as they do behind the decks. The title of Play Hard serves as a mission statement, and the motto on their Facebook page ups the ante: “Making you wet . . . one song at a time.” With the breakout success of “Alive,” our new LIFT artist is moving beyond the EDM genre and attracting thousands of new fans to the Krewlife. We know you’ll want to join the fun.
