As the exceedingly prolific pair known as girlfriends, Travis Mills and Nick Gross conjure songs that are at once pleasingly familiar and warmly unique. In less than three years, the duo created not one but two urgent, inspired, and original albums.
 
They’ve already sold out the Roxy in LA; opened for Machine Gun Kelly; toured with Mod Sun and Grayscale; and played a festival with Twenty One Pilots. SPIN called girlfriends’ self-titled debut “polished, impassioned, and commanding,” comparing their cross-genre appeal to MGK and Trippie Redd. Fans streamed the first album more than 46 million times on Spotify alone, driven by songs like “California,” “Where Were You” (ft. Travis Barker), and “Jessica.”
 
2022 saw the release of standout singles like “High Again,” “Toaster For A Swim,” “Missing You,” “Pretty Mouth” and “Tattoo.” Their sophomore album (e)motion sickness was released in June 2022.
Before girlfriends formed, neither Travis nor Nick were strangers to creativity or community. The brash rap songs Travis posted on MySpace as T. Mills led to a major label deal, Warped Tour, and diehard fans. He later became a host for Apple Music 1. Nick played in a major label rock band before founding Gross Labs. Both guys are equally enthusiastic about having another go at the style of caffeinated pop-punk that first shaped them.
 
The group’s music is a vehicle for self-expression and catharsis, a means to process grief, uncertainty, and renewed vigor for life destined to connect with others who struggle.
 
That’s something girlfriends will never take for granted.

Following the release of their hugely successful debut album in the summer of 2016, The Hunna have established themselves as one of the UK’s most in-demand bands. Having experienced a rapid rise that saw the band land at #13 in the UK album charts 10 months into their career, The Hunna have gone onto achieve a massive amount in the 18 months that have followed. 2017 saw The Hunna headline Camden's prestigious Roundhouse as well as a pioneering moment topping the Festival Republic Stages at Reading and Leeds Festival. 2018 is shaping up to be another huge year for The Hunna, with the release of their second studio album, ‘Dare’, due 13th July. Music from the forthcoming record has already made an impact at BBC Radio 1 with support from the likes of Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw. The band’s Spotify catalog has also topped 100 Million streams with over a 1 million monthly listeners worldwide. Having recently performed two massive nights at London’s Brixton Academy, The Hunna are currently embarking on a world tour having played their debut shows in Australia as well as returning to Europe and North America. Previously referred to as ‘Rock’s Next Big Thing’ by Kerrang Magazine, singles ‘Bonfire’ and ‘You & Me’ have helped to sell over 50,000 copies of their debut album ‘100’, making it one of the most successful releases by a UK band in recent times. The Hunna will be aiming to go one better with DARE this summer.

Seven albums in, and The Maine’s new release You Are Ok is arguably the band’s most considerable sonic leap in their twelve year career. What makes The Maine, The Maine is their ability and inspiration to take risks, all while staying tuned in and consistently exceeding the expectations of their fans. 2019 is shaping up to be another milestone year for these desert dwellers, which kicked off with their second ever headlining music festival in their hometown. You Are Ok marks The Maine’s first top 10 album in it’s premiere on the charts (peaking at #8), and also came in at #1 independent record, #2 rock album, #2 vinyl album, and #3 alternative album. Known for their live show, The Maine is taking You Are Ok around the globe this year including stops on their home continent, across South America, Europe, and more. The band will spend their fall headlining The Mirror Tour - an immersive audio and visual experience bigger than anything they have ever done.
 
The Maine is John O’Callaghan, Pat Kirch, Jared Monaco, Garrett Nickelsen, and Kennedy Brock.
