(February 9, 2024 ) - Freshly JUNO-nominated, indie outfit Good Kid are excited to announce their highly anticipated next EP, Good Kid 4, will arrive on March 27. Alongside the announcement, the Toronto-Based quintet share new single, “Break.” Brimming with gorgeous indie guitar licks and razor sharp riffs, singer Nick Frosst’s catchy melodies, cathartic vocals, and clever lyricism shine on this endlessly catchy, indie-pop banger.

“Break” will feature on the upcoming six-track EP alongside the band's previous, and hugely popular single “From The Start,” which garnered 1 million streams in just 24 hours, and has since accumulated 18 million more. Known for their eclectic blend of J-rock, indie-rock and pop-punk, Good Kid’s massive streaming success is not just a result from their propensity to create catchy songs, but innovative fan engagement alongside savvy, fan-favouring business decisions, have helped the band amass an extensive and devoted fanbase, only serving to further the hype for the upcoming EP.

Case in point, the band’s entire Discography is content ID free and DMCA free, meaning content creators on platforms like Youtube and Twitch are able to freely use their music without fear of copyright takedowns. This has only slingshotted Good Kid’s already impressive following through the pervasive use of their music by hugely popular content creators.

Youtube’s biggest creator Mr. Beast, who boasts a mind-boggling 237 Million subscribers, featured 7 Good Kid songs in a video, garnering over 231 Million views. This is but one of many examples of the band’s online reach, which also includes direct collaborations with notable personalities such as XrayAlphaCharlie, Julien Solomita, and Trash Taste.

“We are very involved in the content creator community,” shares lead Singer Nick Frosst. “All our music is free to use in monetized Streams and YouTube videos, which has led us to developing relationships and friendships with some of the biggest eSports players and YouTubers. We are very open and excited to continue collaborations with content creators and e-sports brands, and want to develop our brand as the world’s most creator friendly band.”

Beyond the digital realm, the band has just been nominated for Breakthrough Group Of The Year at the 2024 JUNO Awards and are soon to embark on their biggest headlining tour to date. Having already sold out over half of their North American dates, demand for tickets to their European and UK shows has been so overwhelming, that the band has had to upgrade multiple venues, several times, to accommodate the influx of enthusiastic fans.

The upcoming tour comes on the heels of two previously sold-out US headline tours in 2022, two sold-out UK and EU tours supporting Lovejoy, as well as a 2023 Canadian tour supporting Grammy Award winning Portugal. The Man.

A jack-of-all-trades ensemble - musicians, programmers and storytellers, Good Kid has carved a unique path for their audience to follow suit. In essence, Good Kid's story is not just about music; it's about building a dynamic, engaging universe where fans play an integral role. With an unwavering commitment to joy, creativity, and inclusivity, Good Kid is more than a band — it's a thriving community of music enthusiasts shaping a unique and memorable experience together.
