Chaco Canyon, located in Northeast New Mexico, is infamous for being arid, but on the day I arrive, the road is nearly washed out from a July monsoon. Thunder echoes off the ancient stone ruins that make the place a UNESCO World Heritage site and national park, and the hypnotic smell of wet sage perfumes the air. I've come to meet Mario Atencio, a Diné (formerly Navajo) organizer who has been fighting to protect the Greater Chaco area from oil and mineral extraction, and his grandfather, Daniel Tso, from whom Atencio inherited that fight, now in the national spotlight due…

Nashville's indie-rock scene is having a moment. Bands like New Translations, Flight Attendant, and Snooper, who just performed on Rolling Stone's Rock Tour with Die Spitz, are yet again showing that Music City means all music — not just country.

One of the most eclectic bands on the scene, the four-piece mixes rock, punk, and hip-hop, and have earned a reputation for unpredictable concerts. At one show, they took the stage dressed like The Sopranos' Christopher Moltisanti, in suits and foam…

The world of international songwriting loses one of its most sincere, visceral and generous souls. Glen Hansard died this morning at the age of 56 due to a road accident near Lucan, just outside his beloved Dublin. Born in 1970 in the working-class neighborhood of Ballymun, Hansard began his adventure with music in the purest and roughest way possible: playing as a busker on the streets of the Irish capital. From those first performances, pavement after pavement, the spark was born to found i TheFramesthe historic folk-rock band with which in the nineties he became an absolute point of reference…

Laura Pausini may release a new single on Friday August 7. The artist posted three photographs and a date on his social profiles, 7.8.2026: no title, no caption, no label statement. August 7th falls on a Friday, the day the singles are released, and this is where the hypothesis circulating among fans starts. In the shots the artist wears a white dress and a band of flowers covering her eyes, with a pink peony in her hand. In a second shot she is sitting on the ground, in beige, with a bouquet of blue delphiniums. No element of the images…

Glen Hansard stepped away from the mic, stepped to the lip of the stage, and shouted the words “I got a home on high.” Coming out of Ireland’s busking tradition, Hansard had been singing this way his entire life. So when he was faced with some seeming sound issues mid-way through a spellbinding Carnegie Hall performance in March 2019, where he was appearing at a tribute to his hero, Van Morrison, Hansard ripped the cord from his guitar, moved closer to the crowd, and reduced the historic 2,800-person theater to yet another cramped Dublin pub or street corner.  Hansard was…
