Most casual music fans are completely unaware that today’s mainstream hits are crafted by teams of behind-the- scenes writers and performing artists, all of whom work together toward one core goal – getting their music to as many ears as possible. They come from all around the world – male and female, young and “old” (by mainstream standards) and a range of ethnicities. Despite their differences, they all share a few core attributes - they’re masters at their craft, persistent, in tune with the artist’s core target audience, and blessed with a stroke of luck.

    For Immediate Release IMAGINE DRAGONS RELEASE NEW ALBUM — EVOLVE — VIA KIDINAKORNER / INTERSCOPE RECORDS BAND BRINGS DYNAMIC LIVE SHOW TO ARENAS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA WITH THE EVOLVE TOUR THIS FALL May 9th, 2017 — (Santa Monica, CA) — Multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning band Imagine Dragons will bring its electrifying live show to arenas across North America this fall with the Evolve Tour, produced by Live Nation. Watch the video for “Believer” HERE and “Thunder” HERE. “Believer” spent six consecutive weeks at No. 1 at Alternative Radio and broke a 13+ year record for number of spins at the format, besting the record previously held by Linkin Park’s “Faint” in 2003. TIME called “Believer” “another showstopper of an anthem,” while Entertainment Weekly noted its “thudding tribal drums, a massive shout along chorus, and a wicked bassline that’s the sonic equivalent of a slug to the gut.” Billboard called “Believer” “a whimsical-yet-authoritative anthem sure to turn even the most hesitant of optimists into a believer.” Imagine Dragons will kick off the Evolve Tour on September 26th in Phoenix, AZ, with Grouplove and K.Flay providing support. Formed in 2009 and featuring lead vocalist Dan Reynolds, guitarist Wayne Sermon, bassist Ben McKee, and drummer Daniel Platzman, Imagine Dragons earned a grassroots following by independently releasing a series of EPs.

  • Michael Bay's "TRANSFORMERS: AGE of EXTINCTION" to Feature an Original Song by the Grammy Award-Winning Band IMAGINE DRAGONS
    Michael Bay's "TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION" to Feature an Original Song by the Grammy Award-Winning Band IMAGINE DRAGONS The Band Contributed Creatively in the Scoring Process with the Film's Composer Steve Jablonsky Will Perform Live at the Film's World Premiere in Hong Kong on June 19th HOLLYWOOD--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Director Michael Bay, film composer Steve Jablonsky and Paramount Pictures are collaborating with the Grammy Award-winning band IMAGINE DRAGONS to feature the band's original music in the upcoming film "TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION," one of the most anticipated movies of the summer. Following an early footage screening of the film, IMAGINE DRAGONS wrote the original song "BATTLE CRY," which Bay used in critical points in the film. Additionally, the band contributed original music during the scoring process by recording cues with Jablonsky, the film's composer, and Hans Zimmer, who assisted in the process. The collaboration resulted in added depth to the sound of the film. "We're incredibly lucky that Dan, Wayne, Ben and Daniel were available to work with us," says director Bay. "I remember being drawn to the emotion of 'Demons' and 'Radioactive' the first time I heard those songs, and I knew I wanted that same energy and heart for this movie. They've created a really epic, otherworldly sound for 'Battle Cry.'" "The TRANSFORMER franchise has set the bar for cinematic innovation over the years," says Alex Da Kid, label head at KIDinaKORNER records. "We are excited to collaborate with Michael Bay and Paramount Pictures and view this as an incredible global platform." IMAGINE DRAGONS will perform its new single live at the film's worldwide premiere in Hong Kong, one of the locations in the film, on June 19th.
