“The members of this Chicago trio are set to be the EDM world’s next big stars”
– Brian Mansfield, USA Today (4/7/13)
Over the last year, Chicago’s KREWELLA has shown the masses how to play hard. Now, the breakout trio who have been enamoring radio listeners and dance floor enthusiasts across the country with their certified-gold, Top 10 hit “Alive” and club staple “Killing It” will release their debut full-length studio album GET WET September 24 on Columbia Records.
As KREWELLA (sisters Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf along with Kris “Rain Man” Trindl) put the finishing touches on the album, details regarding GET WET–which will include “Alive” and their most recent single “Live For The Night”–will be made available soon. KREWELLA explains that “GET WET is a culmination of the past two years of our lives. We created this album for our Krew, the people who love to get sweaty, rage until they can’t stand, need music to help them get through tough times, want to run faster, live louder and feel alive. You can expect everything from four on the floor anthems to drum n bass to carnival house, and for everyone unfamiliar with any of these genres, we hope this can be a gateway into an appreciation for everything DANCE.” GET WET is available now for pre-order at http://smarturl.it/GetWet.
In conjunction with the album release, KREWELLA will embark on their GET WET LIVE tour. Launching September 5 in Austin, KREWELLA will take their explosive live show that features live vocals by Jahan and Yasmine and a brand new super structure called THE VOLCANO to over 50 clubs across North America. Dates and cities follow below with venues to be announced in the coming weeks. Prior to the GET WET LIVE tour, KREWELLA will appear at the VELD Festival in Toronto and Electric Zoo in New York City, among other shows. Tickets for the majority of dates on the GET WET LIVE tour go on sale Wednesday, July 24. Fans can access exclusive pre-sale tickets by visiting GETWETTOUR.COM.

Meanwhile, KREWELLA’s current single “Live For The Night” has been gaining momentum since its release earlier this month. With the track is quickly approaching Top 15 on the Mixshow/Dance radio chart and already over half a million views for its lyric video at http://smarturl.it/LFTNLyricVideo, the single has also garnered attention from online tastemakers:
“Hot on the heels of their global smash ‘Alive,’ Krewella returns with their much-anticipated new single ‘Live For The Night.’ It’s an equally potent brew that further details the trio’s emerging brand of dance pop with a massively catchy chorus, flaming synth riff and pounding club groove. In fact, ‘Live For The Night’ picks up right where ‘Alive’ left off with its feel-good undertones and larger-than-life sound that will take the group to the next level.”
— Arjan Timmermans, ARJAN WRITES (7/3/13)
“Building on the style that made them a mainstage sensation, the Krew unleash another guaranteed chart topper driven by a grinding electro hook, deftly crafted dubpop melodies and Jahan and Yasmine’s soaring top lines. If ‘Live for the Night’ is any indication of things to come, the Krew’s hotly anticipated full length album will be host to even more airwave dominating outputs.”
– Andrew Spada, DANCING ASTRONAUT (7/2/13)
“Krewella, the Krew everyone has come to know and love, ‘Live For The Night,’ echoes everything an epic summer should be about. This single off their debut album out this fall via Columbia Records, is not just about the beat that seems to find a way to course through your veins, but a feeling that is infectiously happy. ‘Live For The Night,’ encompasses everything summer nights should be about.”
– Jessica Grenner, MAGNETIC (7/5/13)
“(“Live For The Night”) in an ode to festival-stomping and party-hopping that gets our early nomination for EDM anthem of the year.”
-Kerri Mason, IN THE MIX (7/2/13)
