What happens when a Juilliard-trained violist moves back in with her parents and starts gigging in strangers’ living rooms? Find out with On A String, the feature film written, directed and starring Isabel Hagen (our forever favorite violist/comedian).

With music supervision by our own by Meghan Riechmann and Kate Urcioli and an original score by Heavy Duty’s Will Canzoneri, we’re thrilled to announce On A String will have its world premier at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival.

Catch it on June 6 at Village East by Angelika in NYC – it’s bound to not B♭(…ok, we’ll leave the jokes to Isabel!)

Congratulations to Heavy Duty Projects’ Creative Director Dan Nigro on winning Producer Of The Year at the 2025 GRAMMYs. From crafting timeless tracks to elevating the visions of artists like Chappell Roan, Olivia Rodrigo and Caroline Polachek, his work has made an undeniable impact on the sound of modern pop music. This is Dan’s second GRAMMY win, with 14 GRAMMY nominations across his career.

We’re spotlighting the latest sync from HD Roster artist Cecile Believe, whose vibrant energy as a writer, producer, and performer shines through in this collaboration with SOPHIE for the new Louis Vuitton campaign. The cult-favorite track ‘Immaterial’ soundtracks the spot, which features Zendaya and the artwork of Takashi Murakami—a collaboration as dynamic and colorful as his iconic art.

Truly a top-notch job — no questions asked. Big congrats to Zach Pollakoff for this perfect hit for Freshpet via Terri & Sandy, now an Ad Age Editor’s Pick! Music, sound design, and mix by team Heavy Duty for this unforgettable spot where, let’s just say, you definitely don’t want to be caught disrespecting what’s in the fridge.
