The ValleyFest committee announced \u201cWe The Kings\u201d (WTK) as the 2018 performer, but for those who have never heard them, here\u2019s what you need to know.<\/p>\n

WTK is a pop-punk\/pop-rock band from Bradenton, Florida. The band members have all been friends since childhood and brought the band together during their time in high school. Their first self-titled album was released in Oct. 2007, and the top hit from that album, \u201cCheck Yes Juliet,\u201d was on the Billboard Hot 100.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are more than excited to have WTK come to Annville,\u201d Jess Zeiner, senior athletic training major and ValleyFest president, said. \u201cWTK was an option sent to us by our agent, and through trial and error, we found this artist and couldn\u2019t be happier.\u201d<\/p>\n

WTK is currently in the production of their sixth studio album. Since the release of their first album ten years ago, the band has toured with Boys Like Girls, All Time Low, Cobra Starship, and became a headliner for Vans Warped Tour. The band also released the popular songs \u201cHeaven Can Wait\u201d and \u201cWe\u2019ll Be A Dream,\u201d which featured Demi Lovato.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to see the student turnout at this concert,\u201d Zeiner said. \u201cTickets are only $10 for LVC students, which is cheap for a concert ticket, so we hope to see everyone there.\u201d<\/p>\n

The band\u2019s new album is available for pre-order and features two popular singles \u201cFestival Music\u201d and \u201cPlanes, Trains, and Cars.\u201d WTK will perform at LVC on April 20 and tickets are on sale now.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
