About Drax Project:

While studying jazz at college in Wellington, New Zealand, Drax Project—Shaan Singh [vocals, saxophone], Matt Beachen [drums], Sam Thomson [bass], and Ben O’Leary [guitar]—took what they learned in class and applied it to another pursuit, making pop their own. The group gained a following after re-working vocal hooks of famous pop songs into saxophone licks. Their cover of Kimbra's track, "Goldmine", went viral and caught the attention of an influential producer, giving acclaim to the newly-introduced group . Signing to 300 Entertainment stateside as single “Woke Up Late” took off everywhere, they accompanied Famous Dex on the standout single “LIGHT” from his chart-topping 2018 debut, Dex Meet Dexter, which bowed at #12 on the Billboard Top 200. As Drax Project continued to make their imprint in the US music scene, they gave hit single “Woke Up Late” a fresh take with a feature from Hailee Steinfeld. As the single climbed to the top of the radio charts, they released a music video featuring YouTube sensation, Liza Koshy. The video took off everywhere reaching 1 million views in a mere 24 hours. Drax Project added to the momentum with the release of “All This Time,” an eclectic anthem with elements of jazz and pop blended perfectly with a saxophone beat. As both the track and video made waves, the guys took to the stage, performing alongside Christina Aguilera on the European leg of The X Tour as well as standout performances at Rolling Stone's Coachella party and the Good Day LA stage. Singles off the self-titled debut (300/Universal) album have collected over 350 million streams worldwide and 18 Platinum certifications to date. An unstoppable musical force, the guys of Drax Project are pushing pop to new heights.

About Phony Ppl:

The fearless five-man band Phony Ppl has a sound that’s been nurtured over generations in Brooklyn. As life long friends, the quintet has reached their final form with five original members, Elbee Thrie (vocals), Aja Grant (keyboard), Matt Byas (drums), Elijah Rawk (guitar) and Bari Bass (bass). Breaking boundaries with a mix of soul, R&B, funk, pop and everything in between, it was their debut album Yesterday’s Tomorrow that introduced the world to their genre-less flavors. Unleashing another genre-defying sophomore album, mō’zā-ik via 300 Entertainment, Phony Ppl quickly moved from the group you needed to know, to the group you couldn't miss. Blending soul, funk, R&B and more, each song on the 11-track set plays as an extended jam between five musicians playing at their peak. NPR called it a “stepping stone for the Brooklyn band as a subconscious vacation for the listener while moving through the world… or maybe even a retreat from it.” The collection has also made fans at Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Complex and NYLON, who called it “ethereal as hell.” Recorded over four years in various locations including the band’s own home studios, mō’zā-ik was self-produced by the quintet and was mixed by GRAMMY Award winner Qmillion. The album features everything that fans have come to love from the band - jazz breakdowns, funky bossa nova, saxophone solos and a palette of playful songwriting, building a niche of their own in an often crowded scene.
