In April of 2015, Caroline celebrated our first #1 album debut in the company's 30-year history. This FIRST was echoed for the artist and our label partner, the incredible ALL TIME LOW with the support of Hopeless Records broke new ground as well. If you have been paying attention to your inbox since, you know that once this levee broke, the hits have just kept on coming for Caroline and our partners! We are honored to have been a part of so many of our partners' firsts this year, and congratulate all of our teams on their hard-earned successes! We'd like to invite you to take a little stroll with us down memory lane...
