For Alo, the collaboration with Beats to create earphones also represents a continued stretch into more areas as a lifestyle brand. Known for its distinguishable athletic apparel and accessories, the brand also has a robust line of skin care, hair care and supplements. Alo’s “Move Into Wellness” campaign, which launched at the end of 2023, signified its momentum in positioning its entire health and wellness ecosystem together.

Danny Harris, cofounder and co-chief executive officer of Alo Yoga, said the company is thrilled to announce the collaboration between Beats and Alo Yoga, noting that “this partnership is more than just a fusion of technology and fashion; it’s a celebration of the rhythm of life and the practice of being present.”

Together, he said, the brands “aim to inspire our communities to live their most authentic lives, amplified by the power of music and movement.”

Additionally, Chris Thorne, chief marketing officer of Beats, said, “The Beats x Alo collaboration felt truly predestined as both Los Angeles hometown brands have made a lasting impact on fitness and culture. Beats and Alo have a shared passion for high-performance products that allow our customers to express their unique and distinct personalities. We’re thrilled to join forces with Alo and bring the perfect tech accessory to the world of fitness.”

Bringing the collaboration to life, Beats and Alo tapped Grammy Award-winning artist Tyla for the campaign. The campaign, which was filmed in the Bahamas, shows Tyla on an immersive sensory journey and features her recently released track “Safer.”
