RIXTON TO RELEASE DEBUT ME AND MY BROKEN HEART EP ON MARCH 18
FIRST SINGLE “ME AND MY BROKEN HEART” AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE ON MARCH 18
(06 March 2014 TORONTO, ON) –Talent manager Scooter Braun and songwriter-producer Benny Blanco are pleased to announce the signing of British pop/rock/R&B band Rixton to School Boy/Giant Little Man/Mad Love/Interscope Records/ Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. Rixton will release their debut single, “Me and My Broken Heart” followed by the digital release of Me and My Broken Heart EP on March 18. Hailing from Manchester, Rixton are Jake Roche (vocals/rhythm guitar), Danny Wilkin (bass/keys), Charley Bagnall (lead guitar), and Lewi Morgan, (drums). Jake and Danny began writing together three years ago in Danny's parent’s caravan. Two years after their start, they were introduced to Charley through mutual friends and a year later stumbled upon Lewi in a back alley of a Manchester pub playing pots and pans and asked him to join the band. Rixton has steadily earned a large YouTube following from their reimagined covers which caught the ear of Scooter Braun. The band is inspired by the soulful pop sounds of Maroon 5 and Bruno Mars and offer up a wealth of addictive pop, rock and R&B built on their own brand of songwriting, instrumentation and vocal harmonies. “It's overwhelming to have gone from writing songs in Danny's caravan to seeing the world performing our music,” says Rixton. “We’ve worked extremely hard and have had a blast recording the EP. The songs are very eclectic and we think there's something for everyone!" Working with producer Benny Blanco (Katy Perry, Maroon 5), Rixton introduce their engaging sound to American audiences with the sultry single “Me and My Broken Heart”. Check out the brand new lyric video HERE and an acoustic performance of the single HERE. Rixton will perform at the School Boy showcase at Banger’s and the Vevo showcase at the Roku Streaming Lounge at SXSW on March 9 and March 10 respectively.
