VANS WARPED TOUR
vanswarpedtour.com
Unlike other stationary music festivals like SXSW or Glastonbury, the Warped Tour (or rather Vans Warped Tour) is one of those rare travelling music festivals. Traditionally, the Warped Tour feature more punk-rock music, but it would seem that they are opening up the lineup to feature more diversity (as seen in one of our spotlight on Wallpaper. below).
If you're into skateboarding, trick bicycles, and other extreme sports and love punk music, it's really the place to be. We are covering the Warped Tour this year in Shakopee, Minnesota, at Canterbury Park, so check back next week for a report.

SLEEPING WITH SIRENS
sleepingwithsirens.net
Sleeping with Sirens highest chart-topper album to date is their third album, Feel, which came out April 23, 2013, on Rise Records.
Sleeping with Sirens is known mostly for lead singer Kellin Quinn's ability to reach low/baritone-esque vocals styling.
Also, although the Floridian band is known for its post-hardcore music, you'd be interested to note that the second single from Feel, "Alone", features rapper MGK. Alt-Press commented on the song as actually making sense: "seems bizarre on paper—actually gels perfectly and could totally be a crossover smash." Not sure how the band will perform that song live (if at all), regarding the rapping portion.
