Biography

Capital Cities, an indie electro outfit from Los Angeles, initially gained recognition for crafting commercial jingles before transitioning to pop music. Their synth-infused tracks "Safe and Sound" and "Kangaroo Court" gained popularity, leading to their debut album In a Tidal Wave of Mystery making its mark on the Billboard 200. The duo, comprised of Ryan Merchant and Sebu Simonian, formed in 2011 through Craigslist, with their upbeat hit "Safe and Sound" propelling them to mainstream success.

Following their successful debut, Capital Cities continued to captivate audiences with their 2018 release Solarize, which featured a collaboration with rapper Rick Ross on the track "Girl Friday." In 2025, they unveiled a comprehensive collection titled A Hurricane Of Frowns, comprising new material, unreleased rarities, remixes, and covers, offering a unique twist on their previous work, including a reimagined version of "Farrah Fawcett Hair" featuring André 3000.

Capital Cities stands out with 18-24 & 25-34 audiences across BRAZIL, UNITED STATES, MEXICO.

Affinity clustering shows natural overlap with leading lifestyle names, pointing to an obvious runway in streetwear, music platforms, and lifestyle products. That mix of scale and cultural fit makes Capital Cities a low-friction choice for campaigns that need fast awareness and credible adoption.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
