Cadium Music’s 2025 had plenty of untimely turns, but overall it was still quite productive. The year in review:

“Good in Goodbye”

Last year’s “Good in Goodbye” by Catch Your Breath, co-written by Curtis Martin and Chris Linck, was more or less limping into ’25, but Cadium’s social media marketing campaign in the spring helped to get the song more exposure. The biggest takeaway was that 46 percent of listeners played the track at least 75 percent of the way through – off of a visualizer (no formal video accompanied the track) – which in the Social Media world is a great statistic. This, of course, was not surprising, given the track’s outstanding verse, chorus, bridge and lyrics.

Throughout the year, GIG edged upwards in streams and finished the year as Catch Your Breath’s ninth most streamed song on the band’s Shame On Me album. The track currently gets random plays on SiriusXM’s Octane, as well.

Not bad for a song that received virtually no support from the label.

The quest to get the song more exposure in ’26 is well on its way.

Chris Linck and Kalan Blehm

Attila members, and writing/production team, Chris Linck and Kalan Blehm, co-wrote and produced alt rockers Not Enough Space’s album Weaponize Your Rage, which was released in September. The album yielded the very radio, “Standing On My Grave.”

Linck also co-wrote and produced “Celebrate,” by Don Louis (Empire).

More Linck/Blehm productions and co-writes coming next year.

Curtis Martin

Martin had another productive year, with the Kami Kehoe EP, Kandy. Signed to Atlantic, the Kehoe’s “Dopamine” made some inroads at radio and retail, including spins on Octane. Martin just completed co-writing and producing her new album, which will probably be released next year.

Martin also co-wrote and produced the latest Colorblind EP, Who Sold You This Truth.

Rob Endling

Rob Endling’s year was spent toggling back and forth between Atlanta and Nashville with co-writes on Ded’s new album, Resent, as well as work with up and comer Country artist, Shi Eubank. Endling’s One OK Rock co-write, “Nasty,” was released earlier in the year.

Rachel Lorin

Rachel Lorin released a covers album, RE1MAG1NED. The collection includes production by Endling and Martin. Lorin is expected to release new material in ’26.

Jake E. Lee

After a long hiatus, Jake E. Lee came storming back from a medical issue with his wrist, but more importantly, surviving a shooting last year, to play Ozzy Osbourne’s Back To The Beginning concert. Jake’s return, which took place at Birmingham, England’s Villa Park Stadium, was well received by the capacity crowd.

Also, expect new activity in the new year from Ayisa, as well as Attila’s new album and hopefully much more.
