Francesco De Gregori si è stancato da tempo di fare dischi. Da diversi anni, ormai, la sua attività principale è una sorta di dylaniano NeverEnding Tour dalle svariate declinazioni: per orchestra nelle arene e in versione intima nei piccoli teatri, con Antonello Venditti (qui il nostro report) e – seppur per un unico evento – con Checco Zalone, con i suoi successi storici e con le sue canzoni meno conosciute. Proprio a queste ultime, da lui stesso ribattezzate “Nevergreen, perfette sconosciute” in una recente residency milanese, è dedicata la nostra nuova playlist. Un excursus che passa in rassegna tutte le…

As Vice President J.D. Vance attempts to mop up Donald Trump’s mess in Iran, Secretary of State Marco Rubio just finished a comparatively cushier assignment: reassuring wealthy Gulf states that everything is in hand. It’s serious business, so it was a bit of a surprise when the president’s son-in-law — Michael Boulos, husband to Tiffany Trump — was seen barnacled to Rubio’s entourage at an official meeting with a Middle Eastern head of state. Boulous, a Lebanese-American businessman and son of Senior Adviser for Arab and African Affairs Massad Boulos, was seated next to Rubio during a Wednesday meeting with…
Syd: BeardJuly 17The last time we heard from Syd, she was heartbroken. On Beard, her ego is still a bit bruised, and there are a smattering of red flags (“I know you got my messages because they ain’t turning green”?!), but at least the singer fully embraces her identity as a lover-in-progress. On “Do Better” she acknowledges that self-growth can only start with herself; on “Walls,” she floats over dewy chimes as she promises she’s trying her best to heal. While much of the album settles into the moody R&B Syd does so well, Beard also plays with Afro-pop, Bossa…
At 79, the accomplished guitarist Lenny Kaye has nothing left to prove and, somehow, a debut solo album to introduce. On Tuesday night at the City Winery Loft's Grammy Museum in New York City, Kaye took the stage with Michael Imperioli to celebrate the upcoming release of his debut solo album, Goin' Local, which arrives on July 17. At the Grammy Museum event, the Patti Smith Group guitarist performed emotionally laden songs from his upcoming album, integrated stories from his book Lightning Striking: Ten Transformative Moments into the performance, and discussed his creative process with Imperioli. Although Kaye presented himself…
When Bob Dylan walked onto the stage at the Santa Barbara Bowl on June 17 this year, there was no sign of guitarist Doug Lancio, who hadn't missed a single show since joining his backing band in 2021. Standing in Lancio's spot was guitarist Julian Lage, a one-time child prodigy, deeply established in the jazz community, who teaches at the New School's School of Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York, and has worked with everyone from Nels Cline and David Grisman to Yoko Ono, John Zorn, and Bill Frisell. Lage may not quite be a household name, but he's…

The USMNT will face Turkey in both teams' final match of the group stage, with the US looking to maintain momentum as it heads to the knockout stage. While any World Cup game is high-stakes, the result of the US vs. Turkey game won't affect either country's outlook; the US has already secured first place in its group by beating Australia and Paraguay, while Turkey lost to both teams and is headed home regardless of its result against…
