∙ Get Along, composed of two short documentaries and a live concert film, was nominated for Best Long Form Video at the 2013 Grammy Awards.
∙ In 2013, Heartthrob entered the Billboard 200 at No. 3—their highest ranking to date—and topped the Top Rock Albums chart.
∙ Produced by Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh, “Everything Is AWESOME!!!” was the closing theme from 2014’s The Lego Movie and became their first Platinum-certified single.
∙ At the 2014 Juno Awards (the Canadian Grammys), the duo won Group of the Year, Pop Album of the Year (Heartthrob), and Single of the Year (“Closer”).
