These Kids Wear Crowns burst onto the national radar after their appearance on MuchMusic’s DISBAND, the reality show that pairs up-and-coming bands with seasoned pros and studios to showcase their raw talent. The group, a six-member act hailing from Chilliwack, British Columbia, arrived with a sound built on tight vocal harmonies, bright guitar hooks, and a confident pop-rock swagger that could light up a room in minutes. Their DISBAND performance introduced them to a broader audience, and the momentum carried them on the road across Canada where they shared stages with established acts such as Hedley, Lights and Faber Drive. Their infectious single Break It Up became a fan favorite, a bright, upbeat song with a chorus that begs to be sung along to and a hook that sticks hours after the first listen. In the wake of the reality show, the band kept the pace, releasing new music and continuing to tour, turning every show into a high-energy affair fueled by youthful energy and a sense of showmanship that translates well from television to live clubs and festivals alike. The blend of accessible melodies, robust arrangements, and a natural stage presence helped These Kids Wear Crowns carve out a distinct place in the Canadian music landscape, one where catchy songs and a high-spirited performance style could translate into ongoing opportunities and growing enthusiasm from fans across the country. With the DISBAND spotlight behind them, the group looked ahead to sustained activity, anticipated new releases, and more moments on stages across Canada and beyond, a trajectory many observers felt could become a lasting career in the homegrown pop-rock scene.
