When you think of independent bands you rarely think of top-charting hits. This may be the case for many, but it’s a much different story for The Unlikely Candidates. The band has broken that mold in more ways than one. According to radio program directors nationwide, the band has the longest running and highest ranking single with “Your Love Could Start a War’ on the Alternative Radio Charts for any independent artist in the last decade. “It’s an amazing success story and many thanks goes out to Radar Label Group and their team of A&R, management, and veteran radio promotions staff (also known for breaking AWOLNATION mainstream).”- iHeart Radio
Radar Label Group, founded by music executives Loren Israel, Brooke Heller, and Jason Davis have had many major successes during their two-decade run. As a full-service music industry company, Radar Label Group has sold over 20 million records worldwide and averaged a U.S. #1 Billboard hit every 4 years. Radar lead by Israel has developed the likes of multi-platinum acts like Jimmy Eat World, Plain White T’s and Neon Trees, among others. They have been nothing short of consistent and successful in an increasingly competitive music industry, which grows tougher and tougher to break new artists each year. With the help from industry professionals, and loyal fans, The Unlikely Candidates are continued proof of a successful past, present and future for Radar and it’s expanding roster of acts to come.
