Country Artist @KatieArmiger Joins @LovePastry As New Brand Ambassador

Country singer Katie Armiger has been chosen as the newest brand ambassador for Pastry, the lifestyle brand focused on producing 'Sweet, Chic and Unique' apparel, accessories and footwear for junior girls worldwide. Armiger is the first country singer chosen to be a face of Pastry and she joins current standout celeb brand ambassadors Cody Simpson, Alli Simpson, Madison Pettis, Jessica Jarrell, MZ Bratt, Colette Carr, Vanessa Simmons and Angela Simmons.

“I am so honored and excited to join the Pastry family,” says Armiger. “Not only do I love the shoes, I love the message Pastry sends to young girls encouraging them to express themselves in a unique and fun way. I'm excited for the future of this new relationship and can't wait to start promoting this terrific line.”

“With the increasing mainstream popularity of country music, we knew introducing Pastry to that market would be very beneficial,” states Donna Grecco, Sr Director of Marketing of Pastry Brand. “Katie is the perfect blend of mainstream and country, so we knew she would be the perfect artist to represent our brand in that arena. We are more than excited to have her on board.”

Cold River Recording artist Katie Armiger has charted five singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Since 2009, every video she has released has been voted by fans onto GAC’s “Top 20 Countdown” including “Leaving Home,” which lodged itself in the countdown for an astonishing four-and-a-half months. Fan votes also netted her the No. 1 spot in Country Weekly’s Hottest Bachelorette issue two years in a row, as well as the No. 3 slot in the magazine’s most beautiful women in country music list. In 2012, she appeared during a pivotal date on ABC’s hit show “Bachelor Pad.” 2013 kicked off with the release of her current album, Fall Into Me, which became her highest charting album debuting at #7 on Billboard and iTunes Country Album chart on day of release. The album includes her current single, “Playin With Fire” which is at Country radio now and the recently released music video which debuted at #2 on GAC Top 20 Fan Voted Countdown.

New Single from Indie Rock Quintet Edelweiss

The indie “wunder-rockers” Edelweiss is pleased to announce the release of the new single “Withering Heights”. (Listen to Withering Heights" by Edelweiss)

Formed by five friends while attending high school in Stroudsburg, PA, the band makes their first foray back into the music scene with their first single “Withering Heights” since releasing their successful debut EP Pre-Columbians in 2011.  Influenced by Yourself and the Air, Foals, Bloc Party, and Arctic Monkeys, the quintet will release their sophomore EP Honduras this summer.

Started as a garage cover band by brothers Coby and Niko Porlier, the band grew to a five-piece in 2010 when all members were ages 14-16.  A year later, the teenage quintet turned heads with their debut EP Pre-Columbians (released September 2011), which earned them the title Philadelphia Deli’s Band of the Month and Alternative Press Magazine’s Band of the Day, not to mention the outpouring of praise from indie music blogs. Earbits called their music “excitingly fresh and dynamic”.  The Burning Ear called their debut EP “highly infectious and limb possessing,” and Brit Indie Rock Blog described the nascent band as “undeniably brilliant”.

The band’s new EP consists of 5 tracks plus a bonus track, all composed as a group effort by the members.  Their first single off the new EP, “Withering Heights”, was composed over eight months, with the song’s title inspired by Emily Bronte’s novel Wuthering Heights.  Donald Young (guitar) wrote the lyrics after reading the novel The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, Niko Porlier (vocals/guitarist) laid down the first guitar track, and then the other members each contributed their instrumental layer.  Producer Jeremy Sklarsky (Freelance Whales, Teenage Fanclub, The Morning Benders) produced and mixed “Withering Heights” while the band themselves recorded, mixed and mastered the rest of the songs on the EP.
