“On their second full-length, In The Crowd, they distill the best parts of 60s pop with the best parts of 2000s East Coast rock, delivering an album that’s brazenly nostalgic yet sheepishly relevant. With ear-wriggling melodies, palpable chemistry, and an unfussy delivery, In The Crowd harkens back to simpler times, when rock n roll really could save your soul.”

“Absolute Losers’ new track, “At The Same Time,” is a quintessential power-pop anthem built to jam out to. It’s an instant earworm, and following their debut single “In the Crowd” – the lead-up to their upcoming album – there’s a clear and exciting progression in their sound. These songs feel refreshingly unaffected by the “too cool for their own good” aesthetic that often plagues this genre. They’re not afraid to embrace a pop moment, and that boldness makes the band all the better for it.”

Bio

Absolute Losers is a rock trio from Charlottetown, PEI, made up of brothers Sam and Josh Langille alongside their longtime friend Daniel Hartinger. Known for their wiry guitar work, laid-back vocals, and danceable interweaving drums and bass, the band made a bold entrance with their self-recorded debut album, At The Mall, released independently in 2023. The album quickly found an audience, earning campus radio acclaim and climbing the charts at CJLO and CHSR, as well as landing the band a feature on Q with Tom Power. In 2024 the band was named “New Artist of the Year” at the Music PEI Awards.

Praised for their air-tight, high-energy live shows, Absolute Losers have become a must-see act, skillfully delivering on the crack musicianship of their recordings. They've shared stages with celebrated artists like TUNS, Daniel Romano's Outfit, Skydiggers, and Holy Fuck, and have played standout sets at festivals like Dawson City Music Festival, Hillside, Sappyfest, and SOMMO.

Now, teaming up with acclaimed producer Graham Walsh, the Losers are gearing up to release their second full-length, “In The Crowd”. This promising sophomore effort showcases the band’s knack for sharp, straight-to-the-point pop songwriting without losing the raw edge that’s made them stand out.
