New York, NY (August 15, 2016) – Pop/folk trio Castro, featuring siblings Jason, Jackie and Michael Castro
- fresh off a rousing performance at last week’s FMQB Triple A Radio
Conference in Boulder, Colorado - announce today’s exclusive video
premiere of the band’s “Rock and Roll” (Live + Acoustic) video with Crave Online,
the number one male lifestyle publisher of enthusiast destinations for
influential millennial males. The studio-version of the song “Rock and
Roll” is also available now to stream on Spotify or download instantly as part of Castro’s Diamond Dreams EP pre-order now live at digital retail outlets, including iTunes and Amazon.
“Diamond Dreams,” which
is the lead radio single from the EP, impacting now at Triple A and
Non-Comm Radio, is also available to stream now or instantly download as
part of the digital pre-order. Diamond Dreams will be available
at all digital retail outlets on September 2, 2016. Jack Barton, Vice
President of Triple A at FMQB, says, “With great songs, amazing
harmonies that blend like only family can and engaging charisma that
bursts off the stage, Castro is starting out on a musical journey that
will bring joy to all of us for years to come."
Beginning Thursday,
September 8 and running through Saturday, November 5, Castro will join
Green River Ordinance and The Roosevelts on Green River Ordinance’s
“Country As Folk” Tour, hitting markets such as Austin, TX (The Parish;
9/8/16), New York City (Highline; 10/20/16), Philadelphia (Underground
Arts; 10/21/16), and Chicago (Bottom Lounge; 10/29/16).
“Rock and Roll,”
“Automatic” and “Diamond Dreams” are from the Dallas, Texas-based band’s
debut EP which will be released September 2, 2016 on Fervent Records.
Produced by Charlie Peacock (The Civil Wars, Ben Rector, The Lone
Bellow) and recorded in Nashville’s Blackbird Studios, the seven-song
collection is a harmonies-driven vocal showcase anchored by three
powerhouse singers who take turns taking lead and know exactly when to
share the spotlight.
“It's hard to fit our
music into a category, and I'm okay with that,” says Jackie. “I feel
like the way we do this together is really unique because we each write
on every song, so each song has part of each of us. We listen to very
different music, and I think we capture that variety of music in
collaborating together.”
“Diamond Dreams” introduces an exciting new chapter for the
Castros, who have earned millions of fans individually on strong solo
efforts. Jackie has been performing since she was just 5 years old,
while Jason, the oldest, became a favorite of judges and viewers alike
on season 7 of American Idol, where he placed fourth. Jason went
on to record acclaimed projects, while Michael surprised his brother and
wowed the entire country when he auditioned for Idol the following season, charmed audiences, and began releasing his own EPs.
