A Måneskin reunion at the Sanremo Festival 2027. Or rather: the complete return of the Roman band, which officially never broke up, despite the various solo projects of its members. The hypothesis has been relaunched by an indiscretion collected by the Adnkronos agency, according to which the return of the Roman band to the Ariston would be part of the broader renewal project that the new artistic director and host Stefano De Martino is preparing.Two elements above all make the scenario plausible. The first concerns the presence in De Martino's musical team of Fabrizio Ferraguzzo, a manager who accompanied Måneskin…

Charley Crockett took the stage at Bear Shadow Music Festival in Highlands, North Carolina, last weekend for a set that didn’t shy away from his missing-in-action album Clovis. “They took this record down, but I’m going to play one, anyways,” Crockett said onstage before diving into the LP’s opening track, “The Hallelujah Trail.” Clovis was mysteriously removed from streaming platforms early last month shortly after its own surprise release in late April. Crockett’s documentary, A Cowboy in London, also disappeared from YouTube after a short run. Co-produced by Crockett and Shooter Jennings, Clovis was recorded at Norman Petty Studios in…
The rising singer-songwriter's second album shows off a bedroom-pop sound that's as influenced by indie confessionals as R&B valentines Malcolm Todd is a rising star with a sweet, lilting voice and a knack for intimate popcraft. But if you're looking for the illusions of grandeur we often expect from rising pop people, look elsewhere. The LA-based singer-songwriter opened his self-titled 2025 debut worrying that he might not make it because he's “not a Harry Styles” (one of the most memorable admissions of comparative career jitters since Pink told us she wasn't as pretty as Britney a quarter century ago). On…
Marjane Satrapi, the French Iranian graphic novelist and filmmaker whose 2007 animated feature Persepolis earned an Oscar nomination, has died, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Her cause of death is not public, but a statement from her family noted her death occurred a little over a year after the death of her husband, producer-actor-screenwriter Mattias Ripa, whom her family noted was the “love of her life.” She echoed this sentiment herself in a series of posts on her Instagram page. Satrapi was 56. The four-volume Persepolis graphic novels, Satrapi's best-known works to English speakers, were first published in France between…

Track will feature on upcoming compilation of all previously unreleased material, Timeless Prince could make even a stolid metaphor comparing a lover’s coldness to an inanimate rock sound funky, as he proved on “Stone,” an unreleased song that has been languishing in the Purple One’s vault until now. “Take your icy hand and press it on this heart of stone,” he sings at one point, though listeners are likely more distracted by the song’s heavy beat and buoyant bass. Prince recorded the track, which was written by songwriters Sandra St. Victor, Tom Hammer, and Jules Van Even, in 1995, the…
The classic-rock titans, who are currently on a farewell tour, have had many lead singers over the years. This is each of them attempting the band’s signature hit On Nov. 28, a significant chapter of the Journey saga will end when the band wraps up their Final Frontier tour with a hometown show at San Francisco’s Chase Center. At least, that’s what we think will happen. It’s very possible they stick to the standard rock playbook, and simply keep touring forever. At the very least, they might add some overseas dates next year. It’s just too early to say for sure right…
“Does love come around or does one come around to it?” That’s the question at the center of “High Hopes 3000,” Role Model‘s just-released new single, and the singer-songwriter says the idea frames his entire third album. Chuck Timely & The Hourglass (Aug. 7) explores his journey after a very public break-up with Emma Chamberlain, with its musical approach taking off from the rootsy, strummy, ultra-hooky pop of his breakthrough hit, “Sally, When the Wine Runs Out,” from his second album, Kansas Anymore. He’s been rumored to be in another relationship more recently, but he emphasizes that the album’s songs are about…
