“This is the first of many brand new hybrid musicals coming from our partnership with LivexLive and PodcastOne,” said Jared Gutstadt, Founder and CEO of Audio Up Media. “We’re really excited about the potential of utilizing premium audio content as a new discovery opportunity for the artists of the future. Our novel idea is setting the stage for the concept records of a new generation. The inclusion of music in this long-form environment has never been done this way.”
Valentine’s Day in Hell centers around a Los Angeles hype-house, filled with social influencers, YouTubers and TikTok personalities, which becomes a portal to hell when empty-headed Sound Cloud rapper and Instagram star jxdn (playing a satirical version of himself) sells his soul to the devil (Adam Carolla) in exchange for everlasting fame and fortune. His friends must then band together to rescue him and his damned soul from the flames of hell, creating a hilarious and terrifying spoof of 80’s teen horror movies, as well as sarcastic, clear eyed satire on social media and influencer culture.
The first two episodes of Valentine’s Day In Hell are available now on PodcastOne, Apple, Spotify and wherever podcasts are heard.
