[Upcoming Event] A GREAT BIG
WORLD Live in Malaysia on 7th August 2014
A
GREAT BIG WORLD Live in Malaysia on August 7
I am
sure you all have heard of “Say
Something” before. A hit song which has gained a lot of affection by the
music lovers this year! Here, there is a good news for you all, as A GREAT BIG WORLD is coming over to
Malaysia this 7th August 2014.
Connections
define music as much as notes, melodies, and rhythms do. When it strikes the
right personal chords, an album can alter the moods, outlooks, and even lives. A Great Big World, a New York pop
singer-and-songwriter duo —Ian Axel and Chad Vaccarino—treasure the precious
bond between artist and listener. This is the power of A Great Big World to be able to touch the inner souls of its
listeners.

The
songwriter duo, Vaccarino and Axel first met in the NYU practice
rooms while still in college. After a few twists and turns of fate in 2012, the
friends formed A Great Big World and
have released a six-song EP funded by Kickstarter.
It has created the viral sensation "This Is the New Year", which
ended up being performed by the cast on Fox's Glee. A recording deal was
then offered to them.
In
late 2013, everybody who had heard the group's single "Say Something" reacted to it. After playing during a
pivotal segment of Fox's So You Think
You Can Dance, this little song began its journey to becoming a big
platinum-selling hit. The terse, tearful piano and Axel's heavenly hypnotic
vocals tugged on heartstrings worldwide. One heart that felt it especially hard
belonged to none other than Christina
Aguilera.
"We
got this email from her that was written like a poem about the song," Axel
recalls. "She told us that she wanted to work with us, and we were
completely floored. We couldn't believe it. A week later, we were in Los
Angeles recording it with her. Everything just started happening after
that," Vaccarino goes on. "Soon, it was like we'd lived a whole
lifetime in just a few months."
A Great Big World
went on to perform the song with Aguilera on NBC's The Voice, and that version took off to #1 on iTunes. The same phenomena
occurred after a heartfelt performance at The
American Music Awards, which generated worldwide applause. They
closed out the year bringing the audience at The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show to its feet followed up by
sold out New Year's Eve gigs supporting Maroon 5.
The
album also boasts great songs like “Rockstar”,
"I Really Want It", "Already Home" that coast forward
on swinging piano and uplifting choruses that instantly invigorate and inspire.
It's pop with a purpose and a positive message. As Vaccarino sums it up,
"There is no separation between people. We're all an integral part of one
great big world.”
Without
any doubt, the breakout band of 2014, A
Great Big World will have lots to share at the performance on 7th
August. Their debut album, “Is There
Anybody Out There” is out now by Sony Music.
