AVICII “THE NIGHTS” OFFICIAL VIDEO OUT NOW ON YAHOO!

ACTION PACKED MINI FILM “IS THE PERFECT REPRESENTATION OF THE LYRICS,” SAYS AVICII

avicii the nights

The video for Avicii’s The Nights, the first official video and second track to be released from the sessions for his upcoming STORIES, is available now on Yahoo! The video for The Nights was produced and directed by and stars filmmaker Rory Kramer, who created an exuberant action-packed recollection of his own life, featuring him on rollercoasters, surfing, snowboarding, skateboarding, balloon flying, etc. – living a life to be remembered. About the video, Avicii (aka Tim Bergling says), “The video for ‘The Nights’ is awesome…it is EXACTLY what I feel when I play the song live and it is the perfect representation of the lyrics. It is so much fun.”

The Nights, written by Bergling, Nicholas “RAS” Furlong, Ash Pournouri, Jordan Suecof, Gabriel Benjiman, John Feldmann and produced by Avicii and Ash Pournouri, had a huge debut this week, opening at No. 12 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs and entering the Dance/Electronic Digital Songs at #7. The Nights also netted 1 million U.S. streams (with 76 percent from Spotify) and debuts at No. 17 on Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs. The Nights is now bundled with The Days and billed as The Days/Nights – EP. It includes the original version and a remix of each track, one from Henrik B and the other from Felix Jaehn.

Hit maker Furlong (5 Seconds to Summer, The Wanted, Steve Aoki) conceived of The Nights as as a “pirate-y fight song” while in Ireland at a bar slugging back beers. He wanted to write a song about his father who had always encouraged him to pursue his creative dream and “live a life I will remember.” With himself on lead vocal, Furlong submitted the song to Pournouri, Avicii’s Grammy nominated manager/production partner in Stockholm. Pournouri says that the song had that sense of euphoria, which characterizes so much of Avicii’s music. “It made absolute sense to work on it with RAS,” he says, “to make it more ‘us’ and that’s what I did. Then I presented it to Tim and sat with him to finish the production and music.”

Earlier this week, Shazam named Avicii the most shazamed artist of all time, and Spotify named him a Top 5 Male Artist of 2014.

PEOPLE, NBC AND DICK CLARK PRODUCTIONS ANNOUNCE ‘THE PEOPLE MAGAZINE AWARDS’ CELEBRATING THE BEST OF 2014

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. – December 2, 2014 – Time Inc.’s PEOPLE, the world’s most popular magazine and celebrity brand reaching more than 59 million consumers each week, is teaming up with NBC and dick clark productions, the world’s largest producer and proprietor of live television events, for “The PEOPLE Magazine Awards,” a star-studded event special and snapshot of the year in pop culture.

The two-hour special will broadcast live on NBC on Thursday, Dec. 18, at 9 P.M. ET/PT, from the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The night will include performances from 5 Seconds of Summer and Maroon 5.

Celebrities scheduled to appear include Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Hart, Kate Hudson, Michael Keaton and Jennifer Lopez. Additional talent will be announced soon.

5 Seconds of Summer released their self-titled debut album in July 2014. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and logged the biggest first-week U.S. sales of any new artist debut of 2014. It has topped the iTunes charts in 76 countries and, in five short months, has sold more than two million units worldwide. The band have just announced their upcoming live album “LIVESOS” to be released December 15. The band received five awards at the 2014 MTV European Music Awards, including Best New Artists, and took home the MTV Video Music Award for Best Lyric Video for “Don’t Stop.”

Selling more than 17 million albums worldwide, Maroon 5’s releases have gone gold and platinum in more than 35 countries. The band quickly won over fans and critics alike with the hybrid rock/R&B sound they introduced on their debut album, “Songs About Jane,” and their double platinum release, “It Won’t be Soon Before Long.” In 2010, the band debuted their third studio album, “Hands All Over,” which featured the group’s anthemic chart-topping smash single “Moves Like Jagger.” The song has since gone on to become one of the best-selling singles of all time. Maroon 5’s last album, “Overexposed,” reinforced the group’s status as a powerhouse in popular music with all of its singles rising to the top of the charts and setting an all-time record for the most #1s (six in total) by a group in the Top 40 chart’s 20-year history. The group’s latest release, “V,” debuted at #1 on Billboard’s TOP 200 chart and features the hit singles “Maps” and “Animals,” which just hit #1 on the Top 40 chart.

Latin Grammy-Nominated Leslie Grace Put On An Unforgettable Performance At Radio Disney’s Family VIP Birthday

29vh_Screenshot20141122at90115PM

Los Angeles (November 22, 2014) – Latin Grammy-nominated, chart-toppin singer/songwriter, Leslie Grace, who is the youngest artist in history to have a #1 single on the Billboard Latin charts, performed her hit track “Will U Still Love Me Tomorrow” and her current single, “Nadia Como Tu” on Saturday as part of Radio Disney’s Family VIP Birthday at Club Nokia. The 19-year-old Bronx native records in English and Spanish, and a ‘Spanglish’ version of “Nadie Como Tu” has been in key rotation at Radio Disney and on Disney.com. The annual event took place at Club Nokia where she performed with other well-known Disney acts including R5, The Vamps, Shawn Mendes, Christina Grimmie, Jacob Latimore and more!

Watch the video for “Nadie Como Tu” here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZSe0ruCmIU

The Bronx born, Florida raised Leslie Grace received a “Best Contemporary Tropical Album” nomination at the 14th Annual Latin Grammy Awards for Leslie Grace, which reached #4 on the Billboard Latin Albums chart and #3 on the Tropical Albums chart. Earlier this year, Leslie became the face of Colgate’s Optic White toothpaste for the Latin marketplace, and has a nationally televised commercial: http://www.ispot.tv/ad/7DK5/colgate-optic-white-platinum-con-leslie-grace-spanish

Leslie is currently working on a new album for release next year, co-writing songs with an exciting array of top pop and Latin songwriters. Proving that she is an unstoppable force in today’s competitive music industry, Leslie has been dubbed the “Princess of Bachata,” which is traditionally a man’s world. Bachata is a genre of Latin music originating from the Dominican Republic, her parents’ birthplace.

Born in the Bronx to a Dominican household, Leslie was heavily influenced by the culture she was brought up in, but submerged herself in the bustling culture of the city, forming the unique style she has today. Leslie says of her upcoming album, “It’s an exciting fusion of a lot of different influences. I just want to bring some of those Dominican flavors to my music while also being innovative and pop-oriented, so it’s something my generation can understand. A lot of us have parents who migrated here from other countries and we want to be respectful of those roots and musical influences. But at the same time, we were born here so we want to have some American pop culture with some R&B and hip-hop going on. I feel like I’m right there between these two incredible worlds, and I enjoy doing both.”

The Latin superstar will add two more awards to his already stellar musical career

Miami, FL (November 21, 2014) – Grammy-winning Colombian singer/songwriter Carlos Vives, brings an incredibly successful 2014 to a close, with a huge win at last night’s Latin GRAMMYS.

So 15 years later, in a very special way, I share it with my family. This is for Colombia; the movement of Colombian Music, and I want to dedicate this especially to President Obama,” Carlos expressed after winning the award for Best Contemporary Tropical Album for “Más + Corazón Profundo.”

Vives lit up the stage with his performance of “El mar de sus ojos” with ChocQuibTown. The riveting performance instantly got the crowd to its feet. He then performed “Cuando nos volvamos a encontrar” alongside Marc Anthony. The performance featured the choreography from the immensely talented Ballet de Salsa de Cali. These Latin GRAMMYs join the many other achievements that this beloved singer, producer, songwriter and actor has received over his tremendous career.

Vives, who opened the doors for vallenato and other folk rhythms of his country to be recognized and celebrated worldwide, continues the celebration with his acclaimed tour, Más + Corazón Profundo.

The Colombian Singer takes his Más + Corazón Profundo Tour to San Juan, Puerto Rico on November 29th, at the Coliseum in Puerto Rico Miguel Agrelot, and December 6th to Miami’s American Airlines Arena.

He is currently promoting the third single from Más + Corazón Profundo, “Ella es mi fiesta.” The music video was recorded during his concert in Santa Marta, and will be released this coming Monday, November 24 through his VEVO channel.

Así que lo recibo 15 años después de manera muy especial y lo comparto con mi familia. Esto es para Colombia, esto es para el movimiento de la música colombiana.“, expreso el astro de la música al recibir su premio por Mejor Albúm Tropical del Año por “Más + Corazón Profundo.”

Los Angeles, CA (November 21, 2014) – dick clark productions and ABC announced today that Taylor Swift will be presented with the inaugural “Dick Clark Award for Excellence” at the 2014 American Music Awards. Swift will be recognized for her historical album sales as the only artist in history to have three albums – “Speak Now, “Red” and “1989” — each debuting with more than 1 million sold in their first week. This year, in its first week, “1989” sold 1.287 million copies, making it the highest selling album released in 2014. Swift is the first recipient of the Dick Clark Award for Excellence, given to an artist who achieves a groundbreaking feat or creates a landmark work. It is to be bestowed upon someone whose spirit and excellence capture the visionary passion that Dick Clark himself incorporated into everything he did.

Clark, the creator of the 42-year-old American Music Awards, influenced popular music in America for six decades. He was known for maintaining a standard of excellence both in the shows he produced and in the talent that he showcased. Simultaneously “America’s Oldest Teenager” and the most trusted name in music, Clark was responsible for the first TV appearances of many superstars including Michael Jackson, Madonna and Prince. Taylor Swift, who also made her debut on a Dick Clark Production show, will be honored with this prestigious award with Clark’s wife, Kari, in the audience, along with a theatre full of stars who grew up on Clark’s programs. This promises to be one of the most significant moments in the rich history of the AMA’s.

“The first time Dick saw Taylor perform, he knew she was something special,” said Kari Clark, wife of the late Dick Clark. “He would be thrilled to know she is the first artist to receive the Dick Clark Award for Excellence.”

“The American Music Awards most closely reflects Dick Clark’s philosophy of popular music. It provides a platform for the biggest music artists of the day, with the winners voted on by the fans,” said American Music Awards producer Larry Klein. “Clark always said, ‘Music is the soundtrack of our lives,’ and no one’s recent music has provided a more meaningful soundtrack for the lives of music fans than Taylor Swift.”

Swift will also take to the stage to open the show with the world television premiere performance of her new single “Blank Space”. She joins a line-up of must-see artists including 5 Seconds of Summer, Mary J. Blige, Garth Brooks, Charli XCX, Fergie, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, Imagine Dragons, Jessie J, Lil Wayne, Lorde, Magic!, Nicki Minaj, One Direction, Sam Smith, and the evening’s host, Pitbull. Additional stars slated to present throughout the evening include Uzo Aduba, Jhene Aiko, Elizabeth Banks, Aloe Blacc, Lauren Cohan, Gavin DeGraw, Ansel Elgort, Jamie Foxx, Becky G, Brantley Gilbert, Danai Gurira, Lucy Hale, Ella Henderson, Julianne Hough, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Kira Kazantsev, Heidi Klum, Mary Lambert, Rose McGowan, Danica McKellar, Pat Monahan, Olivia Munn, Kevin O’Leary, Pentatonix, Tracee Ellis Ross, Taylor Schilling and Meghan Trainor. The 2014 American Music Awards will broadcast live from the NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE on SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 23rd (8:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT) on ABC. Additional performers and presenters will be announced soon.

Taylor Swift is the only artist in history to have three million-selling weeks (2010’s Speak Now, 2012’s RED and 2014’s 1989) and the only artist to have two singles hit No. 1 on Billboards HOT 100 Chart this year. Taylor is a global superstar and seven-time GRAMMY winner, and the youngest winner in history of the music industry’s highest honor, the GRAMMY Award for Album of the Year. She is the first artist since the Beatles (and the only female artist in history) to log six or more weeks at #1 in the U.S. with three consecutive studio albums. Taylor has an album on Rolling Stone’s prestigious The 50 Greatest Albums of All Time (by women) list, Time magazine has named her one the of the 100 Most Influential People in the world, and she is Billboard’s youngest-ever Woman of the Year and the only artist to have been awarded this honor twice. Taylor has career record sales in excess of 30 million albums and more than 80 million song downloads worldwide, and has had singles top both the pop and country radio charts around the globe. Taylor’s album RED, released two years ago, sold more than 1.2 million copies in the U.S. in its first week. The only other album to sell more than RED was her critically acclaimed fifth studio album, 1989, the highest selling release since 2002 and the only album to go platinum in 2014. 1989 sold almost 1.3 million albums release week topping Billboard’s Top 200 charts and iTunes’ sales charts in 95 countries on its release. 1989 has sold almost three million copies globally and tops Billboard Top 200 for a third week. “Shake It Off,” the first single from 1989, topped Billboard’s Pop, HotAC and Hot 100 charts and has earned double Platinum-status by the RIAA for exceeding sales of two million downloads in the U.S. Her current single “Blank Space,” immediately skyrocketed to the top of the Hot 100 and iTunes chart on its debut.

NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE on SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 23rd (8:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT) on ABC. Additional performers and presenters will be announced soon.
