Krewella Debut Top 10 On Billboard 200 With “Get Wet”

Earlier this year Billboard exclaimed, “Krewella is going to be huge,” and today the Windy City bred EDM newcomers will hold true to that claim. Their first full-length album Get Wet has debuted at #8 on the Billboard 200 album chart and #1 on the Electronic Album chart with over 26,775 copies sold – revealing that Krewella is the hottest act in electronic music right now.

Get Wet is the follow up to the breakout EP Play Hard, which charted #1 at Beatport and sparked the interest of VEVO, who inducted Krewella as their first EDM act in their emerging artist series, “LIFT.” Get Wet includes their 2 Top 40 radio tracks “Alive” and “Live For The Night,” as well as their breakthrough single “Killin’ It” which garnered the trio their “Best New Artist” award at the IDMA earlier this year.

Krewella is on tour in support of this new release. Over the last 18 months Krewella has grown from a small club act to a major venue draw. Notable U.S. festival plays in 2013 included iHeartRadio, Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival and Spring Awakening. Their massive North American “Get Wet Live” headlining tour is now underway, with over 55 dates through November.

The “Get Wet Live” show features live vocals by Jahan and Yasmine and a new super structure called “The Volcano,” designed by Vello Virkhaus and Amanda Hamilton of V Squared Labsin collaboration with fabricator and technical engineer Stefano Novelli as a  30ft. x 18ft. innovative masterpiece encompassing reflection mapped crystal structures.
