BOSTON (CelebrityAccess) — Digital royalty platform SoundExchange has announced The Killers as the latest band to be inducted into the SoundExchange Hall of Fame Awards, becoming one of the most streamed bands in SoundExchange’s 21-year history.
“The Killers and SoundExchange share a similar history, starting in the early 2000s and taking the music industry by storm,” said Michael Huppe, President and CEO of SoundExchange. “The band’s debut album, Hot Fuss, made us all fans because It’s given them a deep catalog of enduring hits like “Mr.” and “Brightside” that sound as fresh today as they did 20 years ago. We’re honored to honor The Killers with SoundExchange Celebrities. hall prize.
Frontmen Brandon Flowers and Ronnie Vannucci Jr. received SoundExchange honors before taking the stage at the 11th annual Boston Calling Music Festival, where The Killers headlined the event’s final night.
The Killers will perform at festivals in Europe and the United States this year before embarking on a Las Vegas residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in August.
