Neon Trees Surrenders For Promotional Purposes
It looks like Neon Trees, who Tragic Kingdom named the Best of 2010, is going to have another big year. Their newest single, “Your Surrender”, is burning up radio stations all across the country including Radio Disney thanks in large part to the song’s partnership with Disney’s Prom movie which hits theaters at the end of the month.

The Underground Music Showcase, or better known to locals as The UMS, took Denver by storm this year as it celebrated its 10th anniversary. And after 10 years, the festival brought its best talent, biggest turnout, and most memorable moments yet. It kicked off on Wednesday with Civil Twilight, Paper Tongues, and Neon Trees at the Bluebird Theater. Tragic Kingdom favorite, Neon Trees, and my new friend, lead singer Tyler Glenn, set the bar for an incredible Denver weekend. And once the festival began on South Broadway, it was non-stop madness. Each venue delivered incredible sets, including the outdoor stage which featured some of my highlights, including Lilly Scott, The Rogue,…
