After hinting at her first new solo album in six years, Phoebe Bridgers has confirmed a huge new arena tour taking place across the UK, Europe and North America later this year, where “no phones” will be allowed. The news of ‘The Lost Tour’ comes following the singer, songwriter and guitarist being largely away as a solo artist for years now, not releasing an album since 2020’s ‘Punisher’ and wrapping up her last full tour in 2023. She has also not been busy with her group Boygenius – featuring Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker – in the time since 2023…
In high school, Fenix Flexin and OhGeesy became cool through a life of tagging, skating, and hitting up L.A. area EDM clubs. They later went onto form the rap crew Shoreline Mafia, who in the late 2010s had a couple summers on lock with a few songs that I consider to be essential in the West Coast party rap canon. To this day—after a breakup and a reunion that trimmed the four-man group down to a duo—they remain massively popular regional rap stars with diehards who swear by them, a luxury that gives the dudes the freedom to just do…
Anthony Head, the actor who played Rupert “Ripper” Giles on TV’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer, died of complications due to pneumonia at the age of 72. His daughters Emily and Daisy Head announced their father’s death in a statement to the BBC, writer the actor “passed away peacefully of complications due to pneumonia, surrounded by his family.” Outside of the Buffyverse, Head played crucial roles in the British sketch comedy show Little Britain, the fantasy drama Merlin, and the sports comedy Ted Lasso. But the role of Ruper Giles, Buffy Summers’ mentor and “Watcher,” looms large over his legacy. Outside…

There are two phrases most dads seem genetically programmed to repeat: “Ready to rock and roll” and “I don't need anything for Father's Day.” If you've never heard your dad say either of those, try listening a little more closely. While he'll probably never retire “ready to rock and roll” before leaving the house, a restaurant, or pretty much any location he's at, we may have found a way to put an end to the annual “I don't…
The Red Clay Strays never set out to captivate country music. Even though they accidentally became Nashville's latest heroes, that's still the case. “We're country boys,” Brandon Coleman tells me. “We were all raised in the South, and we were all raised on country music. But we just make whatever noise we make when we make our art, and it's too exhausting to try to stick to a genre.” The Strays' frontman is seated at a table with his bandmates at Green Valley Ranch, a swanky casino-resort in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson. There's gambling there, of course, and…

As the portable audio arms race heats up, brands are stuffing more features than ever into tiny earbuds. Many premium options offer Dolby or spatial audio, Apple and Samsung have added live-translation functionality, and there are some wacky features like the ability to use tap controls as a camera shutter. But even premium earbuds sometimes lag in an essential department — call quality. That’s why Anker’s Soundcore sub-brand has made crystal-clear calls a central part of the appeal…
Last year, Kasher Quon dropped a music video that uses the Detroit scam rapper’s ridiculously vivid and sometimes offensive punchlines as prompts for a batshit AI cartoon. In “Transported,” a dude with a small afro has a shaking fit at a liquor store counter as a group of Asian caricatures watch him in confusion (“Yo’ bum ass mad the liquor store just ran out of beer”) and a balding Italian man yells at his pizza boy for flashing money into his phone camera on the job (“Shouldn’t be posting banks on the ’Gram if you work at Happy’s, he at…
Bruce Springsteen celebrated the American semiquincentennial, and the upcoming opening of the Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music, by performing Thursday night at the 'Music America: The Songs that Shaped Us' concert at the Oceanfirst Bank Center in Monmouth, New Jersey, where he shared the bill with Roseanne Cash, Kenny Chesney, Shemekia Copeland, Dropkick Murphy's, Valerie June, Keb' Mo', and Trombone Shorty. Little Steven's Disciples Of Soul was the house band for the show, which honored 250 years of American music, and Bob Santelli, Director of the Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music, served as the host. Springsteen, who wrapped…
