Teen People Names Planet Verge The Future Of The Music Industry

Bookmark and Share
Teen People magazine has chosen Planet Verge magazine’s Editor in Chief, Joelle Caputa, as one of 25 future music industry moguls under the age of 25. The feature will run in Teen People’s special music issue, which hits newsstands June 3. Planet Verge is offering a sneak peak of the behind-the-scenes action that PV photographers captured at the photo shoot on www.planetverge.com.

Planet Verge is a New Jersey-based music media company that publishes a quarterly publication in addition to handing publicity for several up-and-coming unsigned bands. The magazine introduces the hottest indie bands, and up-and-coming fashion designers and photographers to readers, while spotlighting national acts and people with successful careers in the entertainment industry. Correspondents report from all over the world, including New York, California, Scotland, and New Zealand.

On the PR side, Planet Verge represents Fixer, The Pennyroyals, Jeremiah Freed, and Indifference. Members of Fixer and The Pennyroyals joined Caputa at the Teen People photo shoot. Afterwards, she sat down with Teen People’s Associate Entertainment Editor, Doreen Arriaga, to discuss being a role model for women and starting her own company at 20 years-old.

The buzz on Planet Verge and its bands:

* “Always hip and in the know about upcoming bands, Joelle and the crew have put their money and clout behind these bands, and only a few months later, you hear about these bands on MTV and Clearchannel radio." --- NEUFUTUR.COM

* "The tag-team of lead singer Evan Saffer and lead guitarist Wilson Lihn is nearly lethal...The Glimmer Twins of the new millennium...." - Inside Connection on FIXER

* EWO-Punk calls THE PENNYROYALS "Velvet Revolver scrapping in a pool hall with My Chemical Romance, Story Of The Year and various other post-hardcore spearheads. New EP, 'There Is No Revolution,' is nothing short of spectacular, even managing to surpass the brilliance of previous effort, 'Ovipositor'. An electronic blend of punk rock aggression and pure rock elegance, it looks set to take TPR into the big leagues." – Matt Brown, www.ewo-punk.com

* "When was the last time you put in an album you have never heard—and your mouth literally dropped open with awe?"- FACE MAGAZINE ON SLOWBURN BY JEREMIAH FREED

* “This is a band that is definitely on the heavier side of emocore and has a great ear for tune and melody, and the ability to integrate it into raw riffs, chunky bass lines, and incredible guitar intricacies with enormous attention to detail.” - Rigsby, www.iwillbeheard.co.uk on INDIFFERENCE
