GRABBITZ ANNOUNCES U.S. TOUR DATES
Following multiple single releases and his debut EP Friends, singer/songwriter/producer GRABBITZ taps into the heart of alternative dance music with his newest body of work, BETTER WITH TIME. Out now on Monstercat, BETTER WITH TIME-which peaked at #4 on iTunes Dance Chart since its release late last year (December 11)–outlines GRABBITZ‘ new musical path over seven tracks meant to be listened to from start to finish. In support of the highly acclaimed project, GRABBITZ sets out on a U.S. tour, hitting major cities with such artists including: Feed Me, Jauz, Haywyre, and Pegboard Nerds.
The dates mark GRABBITZ’ first collective run of tour dates in his career, kicking off February 18 in Denver supporting Feed Me at Beta Nightclub. Other markets where GRABBITZ will appear include Los Angeles, Boston, Buffalo, Washington, D.C., Toronto, Seattle, Pontiac, MI and Chicago. The full routing follows below.
On these dates, GRABBITZ will be performing material from BETTER WITH TIME including the cuts “Float Away” and “Cold,” as well as his other releases as part of his opening DJ sets. Wrote Molly Hankins of Billboard (12/10/15): “Unsure of what else to call his music, GRABBITZ is putting his flag down and declaring the new territory he’s in ‘Alternative Dance.’ This space has been pioneered by bands going as far back as Nine Inch Nails and Soulwax, who paved the way for acts like Savoy and Big Gigantic.” She added: “BETTER WITH TIME can appeal to young EDM fans who grew up on emo rock and pop radio but is intelligent and original enough to win over the toughest critics…”

About GRABBITZ:
22-year-old Nick Chiari–otherwise known as GRABBITZ–sprang onto the electronic music scene just about a year ago when his remix of deadmau5’s “Silent Picture” caught the ear of its original composer. Soon after, his debut Friends EP, a Top 10 iTunes Dance Album, featured his tracks “Here With You Now” (to date has ranked over 2.5 million YouTube plays) and “Turn Around” which hit #1 and #2 respectively on Beatport’s Dubstep Charts in 2014. Although his projects have been circulating through the EDM community and gaining recognition from a few major artists/DJ’s such as Krewella, Datsik and deadmau5—leading to collaborative work from the duo, his cinematic influences and songwriting could be placed anywhere in the entertainment industry. That potential was eventually recognized by hit TV Show “CSI: Cyber” which called upon GRABBITZ to provide compositions for the show that garnered over 10 millions viewers in its premiere. GRABBITZ‘s DJ sets are an energetic, upbeat experience, combining multiple genres of electronic music from his own arsenal of original production to popular tracks from his favorite artists, while his live shows –debuting this winter–will highlight his talents as a performer. GRABBITZ will offer the entertainment industry a new gold standard by incorporating all aspects of his production from hip-hop/rap to scoring major films. The bar is being set at high standards due to artists such as GRABBITZ—hailing from Buffalo, NY but now calling Los Angeles home–and he only continues to push those boundaries.
