Panicland
"Bad Word"
From the album Bad Word
Featured track, available from March 16 to March 24
Panicland is gearing up for spring break. The Winnipeg pop foursome is taking over the West End Cultural Centre on March 24 along with special guests Encore, Ginger, The Casual Tees, and Hopskotch for a night of music + fun. But it's not like taking a break is something the hardworking band is really into. They've completed three cross-Canada tours, including a tour of 120 high schools that put them in front of 50,000 students. They've racked up over 300,000 views on YouTube. Their single "Bad Word" reached the #28 spot on the Billboard Top 40 Canadian Singles Chart, has been added or featured on 43 stations across the country, and was the #1 most added single on Top 40 Radio in Canada... twice. They landed in the Manitoba Fresh rotation back in October. They've spend time in Los Angeles, Toronto, Nashville, and New York co-writing with heavy hitters like Gavin Brown (Metric), Hedley's Tommy Mac, Joe Cruz (Carly Rae Jepsen), and Three Days Grace's Neil Sanderson. Currently, they're working with Keith Harris of The Black Eyed Peas (Meghan Trainor, Usher, Fifth Harmony). We've got their "Bad Word" for you as this week's featured track. Get it and get out to see Panicland live.
