Los Angeles, CA – June 5th, 2013 – Platinum selling, singer-songwriters, Aly and AJ Michalka have announced their long awaited return to music under the moniker 78Violet with the release of their new single “Hothouse,” and two very special exclusive showcase events to be held at the Roxy Theater in Los Angeles on June 26th and The Gramercy Theater in New York on July 9th.   “Hothouse,” produced by David Kahne (Lana Del Rey, Paul McCartney, Regina Spektor, Stevie Nicks), is set for an iTunes release on July 8th and an accompanying music video, self-produced by Aly and AJ under Violet House Productions, will be available online the same date. The Los Angeles and New York showcases will mark the duo’s first two live performances in five years.

Stated Aly and AJ, “we couldn’t be more ready or excited to introduce our amazing fans to the new and evolved sound behind 78Violet! These two upcoming shows will allow us to share a small taste of the alternative pop vibe that you’ll hear on the album in an organic and up close and personal setting.”

To show their appreciation for their over 1 million combined social media followers, fans will have a chance to purchase a special meet and greet package that will also guarantee them entry into the exclusive 78Violet showcases by signing up for their new fan club starting this Friday on their Facebook page.  Tickets and VIP packages are limited for both performances and will be distributed via lottery.  For further ticket information, please visit www.facebook.com/78violet.
