Crystalyne Added to Vans Warped Tour Line-up In Toronto

Sunday, July 15th, Crystalyne will join an all-star line-up for Vans Warped Tour in Toronto! The city's own pop-punk four-piece will play alongside festival headliners Taking Back Sunday, Anti Flag, Yellowcard and many more at North America's biggest and best concert tour.

Crystalyne is fresh off the release of their Navigate EP. The release debuted at #28 on iTunes' pop albums chart. The band's second single and music video for "Wolves", reached viral status with over 20,000 YouTube views in the first  two months of its release. The six tracks on the EP are charged with vibrant, youthful and defiant energy. Both catchy and inspirational, Crystalyne's music makes for the perfect modern teenage anthems. The band's ability to inspire has lead them on a national "motivational experience" tour of over sixty schools across Canada with the organization, LiveDifferent.

Crystalyne is fronted by Marissa Datolli, formerly of Good & Broken who appeared on MuchMusic's Disband in 2010. This new musical project is a maturation of skill and musical complexity with close friends. 

Be sure to check out Crystalyne's new Navigate EP and check the band live at Vans Warped Tour in Toronto this weekend!
