Entercom Releases Lineup For 'Not So Silent Night' Holiday Shows In New York, San Francisco And San Diego

Chad Wolf of the multi-platinum-selling band Carolina Liar and Grammy nominated songwriter McKay Stevens are The Federal Empire. The duo, whose songs have garnered nearly 40 million streams on Spotify since their debut single, formed when Wolf and Stevens came together to compose songs for other artists, but decided the pairing was too important not to keep some of the material for their own project and The Federal Empire was born with their debut EP called “The American Dream.” The Federal Empire’s video for their witty post-breakup anthem "I Never Liked Your Friends" features Twilight's BooBoo Stewart and Lindsey Stirling. Explaining the writing process for "I Never Liked Your Friends," Wolf said, "We started this project when our writer friend, Keith, came to a session and started talking about how his ex was burning him with one insult after another. The only thing he could reply with was “Screw you. I never liked any of your friends anyway”... and that was it."

Jimmy Eat World have returned with their first batch of new music since the release of 2016’s “Integrity Blues.” They recently put out the new tracks, “Love Never” and “Half Heart.” “Love Never” is the official single at Alternative Radio now. It's on their 10th studio album called “Surviving” out on October 18th via RCA. The Arizona band's singer, Jim Adkins, said the 10-track release is one of the most personal and ambitious efforts to date. "’Surviving’ explores some of the different kinds of weights my ego tells me I have to carry, what I see people around me choosing to carry and what I have found to be the truth when I choose to let go.” Their ‘Surviving’ Tour kicks off on November 2nd.
 

Joywave's newest track called “Obsession” came out under a partnership with Marvel Comics. "Obsession" virtually encapsulates the genre-busting history of Joywave into one glorious track, melding irresistible electronic pop with typically sharp social commentary to fashion what lead singer Daniel Armbruster calls “a Cliff's Notes version of where the band has been and where they intend to venture next." "I’m sure I’m not the only person who does this, but I have a tendency to latch onto work, or art, or any number of things, to keep other, scarier thoughts in check. Joywave are out on tour with Bastille through October.

"The Game” is the newest song from Germany’s platinum-selling, billions-streaming duo, Milky Chance. This latest single off is off their third album, “Mind The Moon,” set for release on November 15th via BMG. The band explains “The Game” as “That feeling of not knowing how to manage your relentlessly changing life. One moment you’re building something you’re at peace with, and then with one change, the stability is all gone. It’s probably easier to learn to swim than build your own island.”
