Biography

Passion Pit, originating from Boston, Massachusetts, was founded by singer and songwriter Michael Angelakos as a solo project to create a gift for his girlfriend, resulting in the EP Chunk of Change. The project evolved into a band, performing live and opening for notable acts like Death Cab for Cutie. The EP gained attention for its track "Sleepyhead" and was re-released by Frenchkiss label in 2008, leading to the band's debut album, Manners, released in 2009 by Columbia Records and Frenchkiss. The band's second album, Gossamer, followed in 2012, reaching high chart positions in the U.S. and internationally.

Following lineup changes and personal struggles, Passion Pit released their third album, Kindred, in 2015, with Angelakos as the sole credited member. The band continued to tour and release music, with Angelakos also founding the Wishart Group to support musicians with mental health issues. In 2017, Passion Pit released Tremendous Sea of Love and embarked on tours, including a celebration of the tenth anniversary of their debut album, Manners, in 2019.

The profile is female-leaning (51%), and content lands hardest on Youtube, where posts average 45,664 avg views per post. Youtube sustains loyal interaction between releases, keeping momentum warm. 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 Passion Pit 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.
