Headliner 1
Marshmello
Marshmello's star continues to rise as the famously masked, Grammy-nominated artist and
producer breaks boundaries across the music industry. With chart-topping singles and
collaborations with artists such as Juice WRLD, Halsey, Khalid, Demi Lovato, Bastille, Kane
Brown, Selena Gomez, Jonas Brothers, Manuel Turizo, Fuerza Regida, P!NK, Sting, and many
more, Marshmello has amassed a staggering 16.8 billion streams on Spotify alone. With over 68
million monthly listeners, he's one of the top 15 most-streamed artists in the world on Spotify
and the third-most-subscribed artist on YouTube. In 2022, Marshmello received a Grammy nomination for Best Dance/Electronic Album, and his hit single "Numb" with Khalid landed in the top 50 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was also
nominated for "Song of the Summer" at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards. In 2023, he
continued to push boundaries, collaborating with artists like Brent Faiyaz, Dove Cameron, P!NK,
and Sting. He also released his first-ever Latin album, Sugar Papi, featuring massive hits like
"Esta Vida" with Urbano sensation Farruko, "Harley Quinn" with Fuerza Regida, and the
chart-topping "El Merengue" with Manuel Turizo. More recently, Marshmello made history with his second collaboration with Kane Brown, "Miles On It," which became the first song ever to debut at No. 1 on both the Dance/Electronic and
Country charts. He also released his second track with the Jonas Brothers, "Slow Motion." As
we get into 2025, Marshmello is focusing on returning to his dance music roots and re-launching
his label, Joytime Collective. Through this new chapter, he will continue to release music
independently and sign emerging artists he's passionate about.
Headliner 2
Sean Paul
With countless hits and over 120 countries toured, Sean Paul is arguably Jamaica's top export, the biggest global star the "little
island with the big sound" has yet produced. Born Sean Paul Henriques in Kingston in 1973, the dancehall deejay (as a mic
controller is known in JA) has dominated global charts since he burst onto the scene in the late '90s. Three decades on, he shows
no signs of stopping. Sean's introduction to the international stage was the 1997 boom tune "Infiltrate," an instant smash wherever reggae music was
played. By the time he released his debut LP (Stage One, 2000) dancehall hits like "Deport Them"; "No Bligh" and "Hot Gal Today"
(w/ singer Mr. Vegas) had already made him the highest-selling artist on VP records, the NY-based distributor which provided
Jamaican producers their primary conduit to a global market. When Sean and Vegas landed a cameo in Hype Williams' 1998 film
Belly (and a musical collaboration with rap star DMX on the soundtrack) the rising star's undeniable appeal to the hip-hop market
was likewise demonstrated. In 2001, Sean scored another international hit with "Gimme the Light" and in 2002 "Get Busy"-on the Bollywood-inflected Diwali
riddim-became his first #1, early signs that his sophomore album Dutty Rock would break the mold for dancehall. Dutty Rock
ultimately spawned four Top 15 Billboard hits-including "Like Glue" and "I'm Still In Love With You" f. Sasha-and won the Grammy
for Best Reggae Album. In the very same period, his voice powered hits for Beyoncé ("Baby Boy"); Blu Cantrell ("Breathe") and
Busta Rhymes ("Make It Clap")-proving that his midas touch with a hook could not be constrained by one genre.
Sean's 2005 album Trinity broke new records, debuting at #5 and quickly achieving Platinum status, powered by the monster hit
"Temperature." Sean's third #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, "Temperature" took the international star global, reaching the Top 10 in
Canada & France and the Top 20 in Australia & UK. Subsequent releases (from 2009's Imperial Blaze to 2022's Scorcha) kept him consistently near the top of the charts in every imaginable market, from pop ("No Lie" with Dua Lipa; "Cheap Thrills" w/ Sia; "Rockabye" w/ Clean Bandit ) to EDM ("Come To Me"
w/ Major Lazer, "Mad Love" w/ Dave Guetta & Becky G) to Latin ("Contra La Pared" w/ J Balvin). Platinum crossovers-"Niña Bonita"
earned Paul and collaborator Feid "Best Collaboration" at the 2024 Latin AMAs, the same year "No Lie" was certified Diamond in
Brazil-are equally matched with core dancehall hits like "Bring It" (on Dave Kelly's classic Showtime riddim), "Go Down Deh" (a
collaboration with Spice & Shaggy). A role as Gwen Stefani's Coach Advisor on Season 22 of The Voice (2022) made him a TV
star as well. By the 2020s, Sean Paul's status as the world's foremost representative of Brand Jamaica had been officially recognized by the
Jamaican Government with an Order of Distinction (2019) but with decades of awards, chart-topping hits and a worldwide fanbase,
his legacy as a musical icon is recognized universally..

Everclear
Everclear, one of the leading alternative rock bands to emerge from the '90s, celebrated their 30th Anniversary in recent years, and founder, vocalist and guitarist Art Alexakis has made it clear that he has no plans to slow down. Since forming in 1992, Everclear has enjoyed a lengthy career by any measure, spanning 11 studio releases, including four that have been certified Gold or Platinum, selling over 6 million records, and achieving 12 Top 40 Hit Singles on Mainstream Rock, Alternative, and Adult Top 40 radio, including "Santa Monica," "Father of Mine," "I Will Buy You A New Life," "Wonderful" and "Everything To Everyone," as well as numerous videos, thousands of shows, and various other accolades, including a 1998 Grammy nomination.
After the demise of his band Colorfinger in 1992, Alexakis was struggling to make it in Portland, where he'd moved from San Francisco. That extremely difficult personal and creative period was the crucible that forged Alexakis into the fiery songwriter heard on the early Everclear demos, the Nervous & Weird EP (1993), and ultimately the World of Noise LP, both released on the Portland independent label Tim/Kerr Records. The original 1993 release of World of Noise, paired with the band's significant efforts to break into college radio and the buzz they'd created within the Portland music scene, attracted the attention of major labels, including Capitol Records, which signed the group soon after. Beginning with their major-label debut, 1995's platinum-selling album Sparkle and Fade, and its massive chart-topping hit "Santa Monica," Everclear was soon a household name and catapulted into the masses, thus allowing their impressive three-decade career to prosper and endure.
In 2019, while being treated for an injury caused by a minor car accident, Alexakis was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and learned that he had likely been living with the disease for nearly twenty years. Since being diagnosed, Art has donated one dollar from every ticket purchased for his performances to charities such as Sweet Relief Musicians Fund and National MS Society.
In 2022, Everclear reissued World Of Noise as a special 30th Anniversary remastered, deluxe edition, making the album available for the first time on digital streaming platforms with 6 bonus songs in addition to its original 12 tracks. Adding to the celebrations that year, Everclear released a commemorative anniversary video, "Everclear - 30 Years Gone: A Retrospective," hosted by former MTV VJ, current radio host and longtime friend Matt Pinfield, and embarked on a lengthy North American Tour. One special stop on the tour, back in Alexakis' hometown of Los Angeles, was recorded and filmed for a new live album. Live at The Whisky a Go Go, out now via Sunset Blvd. Records, features all the hits and hidden treasures from throughout Everclear's extraordinary catalog as well as two new original bonus studio tracks.
In addition to his thousands of Everclear performances over the band's lengthy career, Alexakis created and runs the annual Summerland Tour, which features a package of popular '90s alt rock bands, and he released his first solo album, Sun Songs, in 2019. More than three decades later, Everclear's enduring legacy and ongoing appeal as a live band continues.
