TEAM ME – TO THE TREETOPS!
If you believe bloggers, journalists and music enthusiasts all around the world, Team Me from Norway is one of the hottest newcomers of 2011. The accidental success of Team Me came about when Marius Hagen started his own side project, while playing with two other bands, Jaqueline and SiN, the name Team Me reflecting himself as the only member of the band. But when the music he submitted ended up in a Norwegian national radio-battle for new and unsigned bands, Marius quickly had to get a band together and Team Me made their live debut in January 2010 at the finals of the contest, to great acclaim. From then on, Marius’ little secret was not so easy to hide, and the world seems to be falling in love with this six-piece indie band and their richly orchestrated music and unique live shows.

Surprised by the attention, the band started doing live shows and recorded the Team Me EP, which was released in the spring of 2011 by Propeller Recordings. The EP received great reviews, and peaked at # 92 on the American CMJ top 200, with a base of solid airplay on different American radio stations, as well as Norwegian and European radio.  

Throughout 2011, Team Me has been playing numerous concerts and performed at events such as The Great Escape in Brighton, Club NME in London, Reeperbahn festival in Hamburg, Øyafestivalen in Oslo, Iceland Airwaves, Berlin Independent Nights and many others. The band has also supported The Wombats on their many tours of Europe, the UK and Scandinavia, building a solid fan base at an early stage of their career. 

Team Me recorded their debut album, “To The Treetops!” in Oslo in May 2011. The album was produced by Marius Hagen/Team Me and mixed by Mike Hartung at Propeller Music Division. Numerous layers of sounds and instruments were recorded in a hectic five-week period, resulting in the 10 songs on “To The Treetops!”

“To The Treetops!” had a Norwegian release in October to an overwhelming positive response in Norwegian media, many declaring this to be one of the best debut albums ever made by a Norwegian band. 

“To The Treetops” will have its international release in late February, 2012, followed by Team Me’s first headline tour of Europe, and their first visit to the US. Team Me is confirmed to perform at Eurosonic and SXSW in 2012.

"Much admired six-piece from Norway who are beginning to attract a lot of attention - and rightly so - for their complex, majestic pop."  "Q Magazine 

“It is entirely possible that Team Me, has released this year's best Norwegian pop album” NRK Lydverket

About Atlas Genius-
The members of Adelaide, Australia’s Atlas Genius do things a little differently….They set about building a studio where they could write and record music for their newly formed band 3 years before they even played their first live show as Atlas Genius. For two years, they devoted their days to constructing their dream studio and spent their nights performing songs by The Police, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones at local pubs to pay the bills. “We really got down and dirty with dry walling and literally laying the floorboards, and at the same time we were taking a couple of days a week to focus on writing songs,” recalls Keith Jeffery, Atlas Genius’s vocalist/guitarist. "We had a lot of song ideas and it was important to us to have our own studio where we could experiment and hone in on our sound," adds brother and drummer, Michael Jeffery. The studio was designed and outfitted by the brothers with the help of their father (who comes from a music and engineering background). Once the studio was complete, the first song that Atlas Genius finished was a song called “Trojans,” which they wrote, recorded and produced in collaboration with their friend, keyboardist Darren Sell. After many weeks tweaking the song, Michael insisted that the song was ready to be heard outside of the studio walls. Within an hour, “Trojans” was on the Triple J Unearthed Website, SoundCloud, and for sale via TuneCore on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify worldwide.

“We had begun to think that music was a pipedream and we had all gone back to university to pursue more realistic careers,” says Keith. “We’d had such a long slog of playing late nights and working all day, and it felt like we didn’t really have anything to show for it.” But then, in the midst of cramming for their Fall 2011 semester final exams, Neon Gold discovered “Trojans” on the Triple J Unearthed Website and wrote a post praising “Trojans” as a song sure to “invade your head, all dressed up in a clever disguise of earnest vocals riding a hooky riff.” Checking the band’s email account for the first time in over a month, the band found that dozens of record labels, publishers, lawyers, booking agents and management companies from all over the world had contacted them.

“We were trying to focus on school, but it was just impossible,” recalls Keith. “So we said, ‘There’s something going on here. Let’s get back to the music.’” The band added manager, Jonny Kaps from +1, to their extended family to navigate all of the interest as the band focused on writing and recording more songs.

Quickly named an iTunes Single of the Week in Australia and New Zealand, “Trojans” reached #4 on Hype Machine by the end of May. In August, SiriusXM Satellite Radio’s Alt-Nation discovered the song on a blog and decided to give it some spins. There was an immediate reaction from listeners, and in September, “Trojans” was placed into heavy rotation, where it maintained a top-five position on the listener-generated Alt-18 countdown and peaked at number one for 4 consecutive weeks in January 2012. “Trojans” began selling over a thousand tracks per week on U.S. iTunes and soon climbed to 45,000 sales - all with zero promotional efforts from the still-unsigned Atlas Genius.

“Knowing we had this audience that was waiting on new songs, we had a much greater sense of purpose than we had before,” says Keith. “It was really exciting to know that there were people who wanted to hear more of our music.” Although labels were clamoring for the band to come to the U.S. and play a series of showcase gigs, Atlas Genius turned down those offers in favor of staying in Adelaide to keep writing and recording new songs. In February 2012, after months of communicating with numerous labels via Skype, the band chose to travel to the US in order to make their label decision.

“We’d never been to America before,” says Keith. “We flew in at night and saw this sea of lights, and it really became apparent to us how massive the U.S. is. It was pretty intimidating - like ‘How do we fit into all this?’” In April 2012, the band returned to the states having made their decision to sign with Warner Bros. Records. “We felt a connection with them,” notes Keith. “Everyone there feels very creative and dedicated to the music.”

The band’s first release from their new label home, the EP Through The Glass (produced, engineered and mixed by the band), came out in June of 2012. With Through The Glass completed, Atlas Genius then holed up in its studio and worked on writing and recording its first full-length album, while at the same time rehearsing for their first ever tour. The tour started in August 2012 and led to three more tours back to back taking them thru to the end of the year. Thus, their full-length debut was finished up between tour dates and got completed just before Christmas 2012. When It Was Now is set for a US release on February 19th, 2013, with an international release to follow soon after.

The debut captures Atlas Genius’s singular combination of sophisticated musicality and warm, wistful spirit. Infused with a classic sensibility, each of the songs would fit seamlessly if somehow slipped into a long-treasured mixtape. On the shimmering “Symptoms,” for instance, taut keyboard riffs mesh with urgent acoustic strumming before the band bursts into a gently frenetic, guitar-drenched chorus. Meanwhile, “Back Seat” blends its pulsing bass throb with a sweetly infectious beat and tender vocals that alternately soar and sigh. And on “Trojans,” Atlas Genius begins with a restrained guitar melody and vocal (“Take it off, take it in/Take off all the thoughts of what we’ve been”) before giving way to the handclap-accented, harmony-soaked refrain and lush yet kinetic bridge.

“It’s still surreal,” says Keith of all that’s happened over the past 18 months. “I think when we were very young, we had hopes that something like this might happen one day,” he continues. (Thanks largely to encouragement from their Beatles fanatic parents, who encouraged the brothers to begin playing music by age 14.) “But then you grow up a bit and it seems less and less likely. So when we put ‘Trojans’ out, we figured it would be a success if maybe a hundred people heard it. We don’t want to force our music onto anyone. Our goal is to write songs that we love and we hope they connect with other people too.”

On Our Way
I'll believe when the walls stop turning
I'll believe when the storm is through 
I believe I heard them say
David won't you stop writing songs
I never wanna shake their hands and stay
I never wanna shake their hands and stay
Oh no lets go

We are young 
We are one
Let us shine for what it's worth

To your place, place, place, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close, we're losing
Time, time, time, we're losing 
Time, time, time, I'm falling to the ground

I'll believe when the sky is burning
I'll believe when I see the view
I believe that I heard them say
David won't you stop dreaming now
And everybody clap your hands and shout
And everybody clap your hands and shout
Oh no they shout

We are young
We are one
Let us shine for what it's worth 

To your place, place, place, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our way somehow

To your place, place, place, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our

Hold me close we're losing time
Hold me close we're falling to the ground

Taxi driver
Sun is rising
Damn the sirens 
Keep on driving
Flashing light
Oh what a night
I miss her bed
I lost my head
And it's sunning
We're still running
For her rooftop
Our last stop 
Barefoot, naked, don't you let me go

To your place, place, place, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close, we're losing
Time, time, time, we're losing 
Time, time, time, I'm falling to the ground
We are young
We are one
Let us shine for what it's worth 
To your place, place, place, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our 
Way, way, way, we're on our way

This night will never end

Hold me close we're losing time
Hold me close we're falling to the ground
