DUPLEXITY Rocks SXSW in Austin as America’s Next Top Hitmaker
The music world is buzzing with excitement as Colossal prepares for 2025 America’s Next Top Hitmaker. This annual competition has quickly become a game-changer, offering rising artists the chance to launch their careers in ways most can only dream of. DUPLEXITY, the 2024 champions, are living proof of what happens when talent meets the right opportunity, and their journey is just getting started.
DUPLEXITY, Now on a Whole New Level
When DUPLEXITY walked away with the 2024 title, it wasn’t just a win for them—it was the start of a whole new opportunity in their music journey. The sibling duo had been steadily rising through LA’s vibrant music scene, but their victory in the Top Hitmaker competition opened the door to even greater opportunities.
Their biggest moment? A rocking performance at Rolling Stone’s Future of Music showcase during SXSW. There, they shared the stage with rising stars like Benson Boone, Rema, and Megan Moroney. It wasn’t just another performance; it was the kind of opportunity that most artists dream about.

Colossal’s Vision for 2025
At the heart of America’s Next Top Hitmaker is Colossal, the powerhouse organization behind the competition. CEO Mary Hagen recently spoke with Good Day Austin about what’s ahead for 2025, and it’s clear — we’re not just trying to find the next viral artist. We’re building careers, launching futures, and giving back along the way.
Colossal’s mission is twofold: to spotlight rising talent and raise funds for global causes. During 2024 America’s Next Top Hitmaker, we raised over $2 million for MusiCares, an organization that supports the health and wellness of the music community. As Mary said in her interview, “This is about more than music. It’s about impact, growth, and giving artists a voice—not just on stage but in the world.”
Who’s Next?
We’re just getting started. If DUPLEXITY taught us anything, it’s that talent plus opportunity equals something unforgettable.
