Pop Evil's smash hit “Footsteps” was just nominated for an iHeartRadio Award in the Rock Song of the Year category. The third annual iHeartRadio Music Awards is set to air Sunday April 3, 2016 via Turner Entertainment's TBS, TNT and truTV networks. Click here for a full list of the 2016 nominees.
The band also won an award for peer voted “Best Independent Artist” at this year's Radio Contraband Awards. The award is a big accomplishment for a band who are vocal and proud to be on an indie label.
Pop Evil recently debuted their new music video for their track “Ways to Get High”, which is currently approaching number one at Rock Radio. Watch the video below.
The track is the second official single to come from their latest full length UP, which was released this past summer. “This song is a chance to free your mind and express yourself in whatever mood you may be in”, says frontman Leigh Kakaty. “Find your Shine!”...
The video was directed by long-time collaborator Johan Carlén, who has helmed the last handful of visually stunning music videos the band has released including “Trenches”, “Deal with the Devil”, “Torn to Pieces” and most recently their #1 single “Footsteps”.
The band reached #1 on the Mainstream Rock Chart for the fourth time in the band's career with their latest smash hit “Footsteps” and stayed there for a staggering 4 weeks last year. The single was not only the fastest charting single the band has to date, but was also the fastest independent record label single to go #1 at rock radio last year.
Pop Evil released “UP” on August 21st, 2015 and saw the release land at #1 on the Billboard Indie Chart in the week of its release. The LP pulled in at #25 Billboard Top 200, #16 Overall and #3 Top Hard Music albums.
Line-up:
Leigh Kakaty - Lead Vocals
Nick Fuelling - Lead Guitar
