ROSTR and Bandsintown’s new live showcase EARLY debuts on October 16, 2025 in Los Angeles. Read on to find out who’s performing at the inaugural edition and a link to attend.
First Two Artists Announced for ROSTR & Bandsintown EARLY Showcase
On Thursday, October 16, 2025, ROSTR and Bandsintown will initiate a brand new concert showcase series in Los Angeles, called EARLY, that will include select artists performing in front of 400+ invited guests in the music industry. This event will take place at El Cid in Silver Lake, and feature a headlining DJ set as well as three live acts.
The first two artists announced for this event are: PAMÉ and Kinder.
PAMÉ
PAMÉ is a bilingual, Berklee-trained vocalist whose sound fuses salsa, bachata, and Caribbean rhythms with global pop flair. Born in the Dominican Republic and raised between the Bronx and Connecticut, she bridges cultures with powerhouse vocals that move effortlessly between English and Spanish. Inspired by Celia Cruz and compared to icons like Whitney Houston and Adele, PAMÉ is redefining what it means to be an Afro-Latina artist on the world stage.
Kinder
Kinder is the Ghanaian-Australian duo of sisters Briony and Savannah Osei, a powerhouse combo of producers/vocalists blending Afro-electronic house with euphoric vocals and unstoppable energy. From Coachella to headline festival sets and global campaigns, their sound and spirit embody the next wave of dance music — bold, rhythmic, and unmistakably alive. This past summer, Kinder supported Katy Perry on all of her sold out Australian tour dates.
What Is EARLY?
EARLY is a new performance showcase series curated collaboratively by ROSTR and Bandsintown intended to connect emerging artists with industry decision-makers and tastemakers in a live setting. Participating artists will receive promotional support via Bandsintown that reaches millions of fans globally via promotional placements and custom campaigns. The event also receives support from companies and agencies like Please & Thank You, Believe, Sentric, beatBread and BMI.
According to Mark Williamson, ROSTR Co-Founder and CEO, EARLY creates “independent opportunities for emerging artists to connect directly with the industry professionals who can help them take the next step in their careers.”
Bandsintown Co-Founder and Managing Partner Fabrice Sergent echoed the need for developing artists to have more meaningful access to industry connections: “EARLY embodies the kind of independent showcase platform that we champion – one that creates value and equal opportunity for artists to get discovered and grow their careers.”
In addition to marketing the showcases, Bandsintown will provide EARLY artists with promotional support that reaches millions of fans globally via promotional placements and custom campaigns across its leading global platform. An online content series will also showcase EARLY artists to tens of thousands of industry professionals across ROSTR’s global online audience.
