AceShowbiz - The music industry continues to witness notable artist signings, with Beartooth and Skylar Grey making recent moves that signal fresh chapters in their careers.
Beartooth, the acclaimed rock and metalcore band, has officially signed with Fearless Records. Their inaugural release under the new label is the single "Free," which dropped on February 27. This marks a significant partnership for the band as they embark on their next musical phase.
Fearless Records president Andy Serrao expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, "We've been watching their growth as fans for many years, and now, we are excited to be partners. 'Free' is the perfect start to this next chapter."
Frontman Caleb Shomo described the single as a deeply personal reflection of his journey, saying, "'Free' is the start of the next chapter of my music and my life. The emotional roller coaster that is living can be very complicated at times. In one day you can equally experience pure fear and pure joy. This song shows a glimpse of what is to come from the next Beartooth album, which is the most honest depiction of my soul I will most likely ever make."
Beartooth has previously achieved notable success with two No. 1 albums on Billboard's Top Hard Rock Albums chart: 2018's Disease and 2023's The Surface. Currently, the band is supporting Bad Omens on their North American tour, further amplifying their presence in the rock scene.
Meanwhile, singer-songwriter Skylar Grey has secured new management by signing with Casual Media Partners. This move comes as she prepares to release her forthcoming studio album, Wasted Potential, scheduled for May 22.
The album is described in a press release as "a sonic collage that Grey describes as 'bubblegrunge' - 90s and Y2K pop/grunge at its core, with singer-songwriter DNA woven throughout." Skylar Grey will be managed by Heather Vassar, founder and CEO of Casual Media Partners, signaling a promising new chapter for the artist as she gears up for her album launch.
These signings highlight the dynamic nature of the music industry, where established and emerging artists alike continue to evolve through strategic partnerships and creative ventures.
