Demi Lovato’s newest album, CONFIDENT, is out now on Hollywood Records/Island Records/Safehouse Records and features the #1 iTunes smash single “Cool For The Summer.” Lovato kicked off the release of CONFIDENT with powerful and poignant performances on Saturday Night Live, which generated the #1 worldwide trending topic on Twitter and massive coverage by the media. Following the performance, the Village Voice declared, “Issue a warrant for Demi Lovato ‘cause girl murdered Saturday Night Live,” adding, “Lovato’s full-throttle vocal assault on the Studio 8H stage with (“Confident”) could service as a career standout for her.”
Demi will perform songs from the critically acclaimed new album on Good Morning America (October 29th) as well as The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (October 30th). Critical praise for Lovato’s CONFIDENT has been equally stellar. Billboard Magazine asserted, “Demi Lovato has become one of Pop’s leading motivational figures,” while People Magazine lauded, “It’s Lovato’s dynamite vocals and striking vulnerability on aching ballads and Gospel anthems that make CONFIDENT such a triumph,” and USA Today avowed, “She inarguably has one of the strongest instruments in Pop right now.”
Island Records Artist, Nick Jonas introduced himself as a fully formed solo artist on his hit self-titled debut, released in November 2014. The critically-acclaimed album includes double-platinum smash single and #1 U.S. radio hit, “Jealous” and his sultry second chart-climbing radio single, “Chains.” Jonas attributes his album’s darker overtones partially to the fact that while he was recording, he was also shooting the gritty television show Kingdom — a mixed martial arts drama that premiered on DirecTV’s Audience Network last fall and was recently picked up for two additional seasons. Jonas recently earned two more high-profile roles, a guest starring role in FOX’s horror-comedy series, Scream Queens and a lead in the James Franco produced film, Goat. Showing no signs of slowing down this year, the breakout solo powerhouse joined forces with west coast rapper-producer Sage the Gemini to release their summer collaboration, “Good Thing.” Jonas’ latest single, “Levels,” has already amassed over 12 million views on YouTube and is rapidly climbing the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He also recently wrapped up his sold-out North American “LIVE IN CONCERT” tour and has been nominated for a 2015 American Music Award for “Favorite Male Artist – Pop/Rock.”

From his first #1 smash “Should’ve Been A Cowboy” to his upcoming album 35 mph Town, Toby Keith has been one of the most consistent self-directed hit makers of his era. From one of his previous collections, Clancy’s Tavern, the lead single, “Made In America,” topped the charts as one of the fastest rising songs in a long line of chart burners from Keith’s pen. The second hit, “Red Solo Cup,” has become the most remarkable and commercially successful Country single in recent memory with a viral video with more than 30 million views while having topped the top downloaded Country songs charts. The first single from his upcoming album, “Drunk Americans,” debuted at #1 Most Added on both the Billboard and Country Aircheck/Mediabase charts.
At the core of Toby’s unparalleled success is his songwriting, which has powered an astounding succession of hit songs to the tune of more than 85 million BMI performances on commercial radio stations worldwide. This summer Toby was inducted in to the Songwriters Hall Of Fame, and he has been honored by the Nashville Songwriters Association International with its “Songwriter/Artist of the Decade” distinction, is a three-time BMI “Country Songwriter/Artist of the Year” and was named the American Country Awards’
“Artist of the Decade.” His albums have sold more than 38 million copies, ranking him among the top-selling all-genre artists on Billboard’s Top 200 Artists of the Decade. Keith is also Billboard’s #1 Country Artist of the Decade and #1 Country Songwriter of the Decade. His tours, including 2014’s Shut Up And Hold On Tour, long sponsored by Ford Trucks, have drawn more than one million fans each year for the last decade. This year’s Good Times & Pick Up Lines Tour presented by Ford F-Series kicked off in May and continues through the year with shows in major cities including Chicago, St. Louis, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. But Toby’s most rewarding experiences, as exhibited in his continual devotion to them, come from giving back. Whether it’s helping sick children and their families in his native Oklahoma through the Toby Keith Foundation and their cost-free home, the OK Kids Korral, or supporting U.S. Troops including 11 USO Tours throughout the world, Keith has never lost touch with the most important things in life.

Together, both albums yielded seven consecutive top 5 radio hits, including the #1 blockbuster, “Save Me.” Released in 2008, THE SOUND OF MADNESS proved to be Shinedown’s mainstream breakthrough, debuting at #8 on the Billboard 200 before spending 120 consecutive weeks on the chart. The album made Rock history, with each of its six singles reaching #1 on the airplay rankings, including the double-platinum certified crossover smash, “Second Chance,” which also went to #1 on the Hot AC chart and top 3 at Top 40. AMARYLLIS followed in 2012 and immediately entered Billboard’s “Rock Albums” chart at #1 while also coming in at #4 on the overall Billboard 200 — the multi-platinum group’s biggest chart debut thus far. The album spawned a trio of massive hits in “Bully,” “Unity,” and “Enemies,” all of which reached #1 at Active Rock radio, bringing Shinedown’s tally of consecutive chart-toppers at the format to an amazing nine and counting. In addition, two additional singles from AMARYLLIS — “I’ll Follow You” and “Adrenaline” — both reached the top 5 at Rock radio, furthering Shinedown’s extraordinary streak of top-charting singles.
