Bon Iver Launch Archival Series ‘VOLUMES: ONE’

Bon Iver launches VOLUMES: a new and recurring archival series spanning live shows, demos, unreleased recordings and other previously unheard material, presenting the many eras and multitudes that make up “Bon Iver.” Arriving April 3rd, digitally and physically via Jagjaguwar, VOLUMES: ONE “SELECTIONS FROM MUSIC CONCERTS 2019-2023 BON IVER 6 PIECE BAND” marks the debut installment, bringing together 10 performances that capture Bon Iver at its wildest, warmest and most muscular whole.

“This particular set of 10 songs is like, ‘Here, if you’ve never heard Bon Iver, or you have and you didn’t like it, this might be for you.’ This is what we became. This is really us at our best. This is it,” says Justin Vernon, who began working on VOLUMES: ONE in 2020, combing through dozens of hours of live recordings to assemble the ultimate tracklist. 

VOLUMES: ONE “SELECTIONS FROM MUSIC CONCERTS 2019-2023 BON IVER 6 PIECE BAND” is Bon Iver’s first non-studio album, but serves as something greater than either a compilation or live record. Bandmates Andrew Fitzpatrick, Jenn Wasner, Justin Vernon, Matthew McCaughan, Michael Lewis and Sean Carey are their own unit. Together, they deliver the defining versions of these songs for both the uninitiated and die-hards, exploding tracks into their richest form through the essential live engineering of Xandy Whitesel.

Recorded between 2019 and 2023, when Bon Iver would perform its last live concert to date, VOLUMES: ONE highlights the music of 2016’s22, A Million and 2019’si,i, complemented by three important pieces. COVID-era hymnal “P.D.L.I.F.” represents a new period of Bon Iver; a cover of Mahalia Jackson’s “A SATISFIED MIND” harkens back to the early days of DeYarmond Edison, when Vernon embraced his falsetto during private band practice; and now, at long last, “HEAVENLY FATHER” restores a beloved fan favorite to digital streaming platforms. 

The heady, inward and innovative side of Bon Iver that makes the studio albums cannot exist without the live band, and VOLUMES: ONE represents a time capsule – a prismatic look at an old friend, seeing them for who they were and who they are, all the goodness of which they’re capable but maybe too shy to show at times. On the night of Bon Iver’s final i,i show in 2023, Justin Vernon wrote and read the following portion of a poem to his bandmates: 

“The fact that I’ve been with friends, not just work buddies. And the fact that we’ve travelled all over the world together, while we all did our jobs at the highest levels possible. We crushed this shit as hard as anybody has ever crushed anything. I’m so deeply proud to be a part of Us.”

Modeled after Bob Dylan’s Bootleg Series and the Neil Young Archives, Justin Vernon introduced Bon Iver’s VOLUMES in his debut NTS Radio show, discussing more of the project and playing some of his favorite cuts from classic live albums. Listen to Vernon talk about Donny Hathaway, Bonnie Raitt, The War on Drugs, Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra and more HERE.

Sun Records Brings Pure Johnny Cash to Digital Streaming With Qobuz Exclusive

Sun Records expand their acclaimed archival collaboration with the digital release of Pure Johnny Cash, available exclusively today via Qobuz, the independently owned high-quality music streaming and download platform known for prioritizing high-quality listening. The album will be available on all major streaming platforms March 6, 2026.

Listen on Qobuz in up to 24-bit Hi-Res: stream HERE and download HERE. 

Originally released as a premium vinyl collection in partnership with McIntosh, Pure Johnny Cash presents 18 rare and seldom-heard recordings from Johnny Cash’s formative years at Sun Records, meticulously remastered from the original analog tapes to preserve the immediacy, warmth, and unvarnished power that defined Cash’s earliest sessions. Featuring alternative takes and standout versions of classics including “Train of Love,” “Ballad of a Teenage Queen,” and “I Walk the Line,” the collection offers an intimate window into Cash at the beginning of his legendary run.

To mark the digital debut, Sun Records is also premiering a new lyric video for the Pure Johnny Cash version of “Ballad of a Teenage Queen,” bringing fresh visual storytelling to one of Cash’s most beloved songs and spotlighting the clarity and detail revealed in these restored recordings.

“Sam Phillips had a way of capturing lightning in a bottle, and these early recordings of Johnny Cash perfectly exemplify that,” says Chase Gregory, Senior Director A&R + Sync, Sun Records. “Releasing Pure Johnny Cashdigitally, in partnership with Qobuz and the HiFi digital platform they offer, is another way to honor what makes these performances so special. Everything you hear was performed in one take with no overdubs. It’s a direct line to the room, the moment, and the voice that changed American music.”

McIntosh, long revered for its uncompromising standards in audio craftsmanship, partnered with Sun Records to help bring these vault recordings to vinyl with exceptional fidelity, translating the nuance of Cash’s baritone, the snap of the rhythm, and the natural space of the sessions into a listening experience designed for fans who care deeply about sound. Now, Qobuz carries that ethos into the digital realm, delivering the album in high-resolution audio that honors the integrity of the original recordings.

Music A&R Veteran Joe McEwen Unveils ‘Tastykakes, Soul Songs And Shining Stars’

ZE Books has announced the release of Joe McEwen’s ‘Tastykakes, Soul Songs and Shining Stars’ on April 28, a labor of love – half a century in the making – from a respected music industry stalwart. A Philadelphia native and an A&R executive for Columbia, Sire/Warner Brothers, Verve, and Concord Music Group – McEwen gathers a lifetime’s worth of encounters, essays, and reveries into one radiant collection, a love letter to rhythm-and-blues and soul music. Its pages are bursting with vivid, compelling, up-front and personal profiles (predominantly written by McEwen while working as a music journalist in the 1970s) with a host of indelible figures: Pops and Mavis Staples, George Clinton, Allen Toussaint, Betty Wright, Michael Jackson, Gamble and Huff, Don Covay, and many more.

“This book is meant to be a fan’s notes with, as its heart and soul, a collection of profiles all written between 1973 and 1978,” reflects McEwen in the book’s introduction. “While rereading these during Covid down time, the vitality of the voices and the vivid memories reconnected me with feelings and emotions that had been long stored in my mental attic. I thought they deserved a second airing.”

Alongside these portraits of legends at the peak of their powers are heartfelt musings spanning the 1960s through the ’80s – illuminating the creative processes behind the songs that defined a generation. Interwoven throughout are reflections on basketball, memory, and movement — parallel sources of rhythm, improvisation, and joy. The book culminates in an extended 2024 conversation with esteemed music author and longtime confidant Peter Guralnick (Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke), a fitting finale to a collection that captures the soul of a lifetime in music.

“This is a tribute to some of the music and artists that have provided me with the building blocks, the sturdy foundation for a career and a never-ending journey of wonder,” McEwen summarizes as the book’s final chapter concludes. “I saw James Brown at the Arena in West Philadelphia in the fall of 1966. It was the first music performance I had ever attended. Somewhere inside remains the heart of a 16-year-old kid at the Arena, overcome by a sense of uncomprehending, incredulous amazement at the drama and spectacle unfolding before me.”

Alt-Pop Firestarter girli Ignites North American Tour “Slap On The Wrist” Era

Alt-pop singer-songwriter, girli, is coming back across the pond! Her new North American Tour will kick off right where it all began: Baby’s All Right, where she made her New York debut. She’ll be at the Brooklyn venue on June 11th, followed by stops in major cities including Chicago, DC, LA, and Toronto. Tickets will be on sale Friday, Feb 20 at 10am local. Click HERE for more details. 

North American Tour Dates:

June 11, 2026 – Brooklyn, NY – Baby’s All Right 

June 12, 2026 – Boston, MA – Brighton Music Hall

June 13, 2026 – Philadelphia, PA – Foundry

June 14, 2026 – Washington, DC – The Atlantis

June 16, 2026 – Toronto, ON – Garrison 

June 17, 2026 – Ann Arbor, MI – Blind Pig

June 18, 2026 – Chicago, IL – Subterranean

June 19, 2026 – Indianapolis, IN – HI-FI

June 21, 2026 – Denver, CO – Larimer Lounge

June 24, 2026 – Los Angeles, CA – Lodge Room

June 30, 2026 – Seattle, WA – Baba Yaga

July 1, 2026 – Portland, OR – Holocene

The tour also ushers in a defining new chapter for girli. Leaning into feminine rage while releasing the pressure of perfectionism, she embraces a more vulnerable and unfiltered version of herself. Her latest single “Slap On The Wrist,” is an explosive pop-rock rallying cry that blends urgency with empowerment. The track finds girli at her most confident and emotionally resonant, channeling frustration and resilience while confronting cultural patterns around accountability and dismissal. She’s never been silent, but she’s making her voice heard louder than ever before. 

Since emerging with her breakthrough sophomore album, ‘Matriarchy’, girli has carved a space in the alternative scene for bold, boundary-pushing storytelling. Her ability to merge pop essence with underground energy has earned her a tight-knit and dedicated fanbase.

As an openlyLGBTQ+ artist and advocate for social change, girli continues to intertwine her personal journey with broader cultural conversations. Her past work has touched on themes of identity, politics, mental health, and more – and this new chapter builds on that same spirit of activism, but through a softer, more human lens. 

Girli, also known as Milly Toomey, was born and raised in north London. She started out singing in bands, but soon realised she was “too much of a control freak” not to go solo. She adopted her stage name and signature pink hair during this period as a way of “weaponising everything that was being used against me”. Right from the start, girli took pride in being slyly subversive. “The word ‘girly’ has so much stigma attached to it because it’s often used to belittle femininity,” she explains. “I wanted to take that word and turn it into something powerful, and I changed the ‘y’ to an ‘i’ so people would be able to find my music on Google.

Now, with over 100 million stream, fans around the world are embracing girli’s music as an inspiring and comforting part of their everyday lives. She’s been featured in major outlets like Billboard,Glamour UK, Queertyand GRAMMY.com’sPride Month Playlist Of Rising LGBTQIA+ Artists. 

Blues Icon John Hammond Dies At 83

Blues Icon John Hammond Dies At 83

Blues icon John Hammond has died at the age of 83. News of his passing on February 28 was confirmed by longtime collaborator Paul James, who shared that he received the information from Hammond’s wife, Marla. The cause of death has not been disclosed. With more than six decades devoted to the blues, Hammond stood as one of the music’s most committed and enduring champions.

Born in New York City in 1942, the son of legendary Columbia Records producer John Henry Hammond Jr., Hammond forged his own path in the Greenwich Village folk and blues revival. His 1963 debut album, ‘John Hammond,’ broke ground as one of the first blues LPs by a white artist fully immersed in traditional acoustic forms. Inspired by Lightnin’ Hopkins and Muddy Waters, he committed himself to Delta and Chicago blues with unwavering focus.

Throughout the 1960s, Hammond collaborated with key figures who would shape rock history. His 1965 album ‘So Many Roads’ featured guitarist Mike Bloomfield alongside Robbie Robertson, Garth Hudson and Levon Helm, musicians who would soon form The Band. He also shared stages and sessions with Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix, embedding himself at the crossroads of blues and emerging rock movements.

Across more than 30 albums, Hammond remained loyal to the raw, stripped-back traditions that first inspired him. His 2001 release ‘Wicked Grin’ paid tribute to close friend Tom Waits, interpreting Waits’ songs through Hammond’s gravelly voice and National Reso-Phonic guitar. The record underscored his ability to inhabit another songwriter’s work while retaining his own unmistakable presence.

Hammond earned a Grammy Award in 1985 for his contribution to ‘Blues Explosion’ and received multiple additional nominations. He collected eight Blues Music Awards and was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 2011. Commercial success was never the driving force of his career. Instead, he built a global following grounded in authenticity and deep respect from fellow musicians.

For generations of artists and listeners, John Hammond represented a living bridge to the roots of American blues. His dedication preserved a lineage that might otherwise have faded from mainstream view. He is survived by his wife Marla. His recordings remain a testament to a life spent in service of the blues.

The Black Dahlia Murder Launch “Spring Fling” Tour

American death-metal titans The Black Dahlia Murder hit the road this April on their “Spring Fling” U.S. tour in support of ‘Servitude.’ The run opens April 2 in Indianapolis and storms through Providence, Norfolk, Tucson, Albuquerque and more before closing May 2 in Milwaukee. The Acacia Strain join as direct support, with Disembodied Tyrant and Corpse Pile rounding out a stacked, full-force bill.

“This is set to be a massively heavy trek that will undoubtedly be recounted in the history textbooks for centuries to come,” says frontman Brian Eschbach. Following 2024’s ‘Servitude,’ featuring “Aftermath” and “Mammoth’s Hand,” the band continue forward with renewed intensity after Eschbach stepped into vocal duties. The schedule spans coast to coast, bringing one of metal’s most relentless live acts into rooms built for volume.

Essential Hoodie: A Simple Streetwear Piece That Stays in Style

By Mitch Rice

Streetwear fashion has reshaped modern clothing trends. Casual outfits that once belonged mainly to sportswear now appear in everyday wardrobes across the world. One item that continues to hold strong popularity is the Essential Hoodie.

This hoodie gained recognition through the label Fear of God Essential Hoodie, a brand created by designer Jerry Lorenzo. The Essentials line focuses on relaxed clothing that blends comfort with minimal design. Because of its clean appearance and comfortable fit, the Essential hoodie has become a common choice for streetwear fans.

Many people appreciate clothing that feels comfortable but still looks modern. The Essential hoodie represents this balance between casual wear and contemporary fashion.

What Makes the Essential Hoodie Popular

The Essential hoodie stands out because of its simplicity. Instead of relying on loud graphics or complicated designs, the hoodie focuses on strong fabric quality, relaxed shapes, and subtle branding.

Several elements contribute to its popularity:

  • relaxed oversized fit
  • soft cotton or fleece fabric
  • neutral color tones
  • recognizable ESSENTIALS logo
  • simple streetwear silhouette

These features allow the hoodie to remain fashionable without relying on seasonal trends.

Streetwear enthusiasts often prefer clothing that remains versatile. The Essential hoodie easily fits into that category.

The Streetwear Influence Behind the Hoodie

Streetwear fashion has grown from local subcultures into a global style movement. Designers began blending casual clothing with luxury fashion concepts, creating a new approach to everyday outfits.

The brand Essentials Hoodie played a role in this shift by introducing clothing that combines relaxed silhouettes with modern styling. The Essentials line followed the same design direction but focused on accessible everyday pieces.

As streetwear gained attention through music, sports, and social media, the Essential hoodie became a recognizable part of the movement.

Retailers such as Essentials helped distribute Essentials clothing widely, making it easier for people to purchase these items worldwide.

Comfortable Materials and Construction

One reason people enjoy wearing an Essential hoodie is its comfortable material. Most versions feature cotton-blend fleece fabric designed to provide warmth and softness.

Important fabric features often include:

  • brushed fleece interior
  • durable cotton blend exterior
  • breathable structure for daily wear
  • ribbed cuffs and waistband

These details help the hoodie maintain comfort while also holding its shape after repeated use.

Because of this balance between comfort and durability, the hoodie works well for everyday outfits.

Easy Outfit Combinations

Another advantage of the Essential hoodie is its versatility. The hoodie pairs easily with different clothing styles, making it simple to create casual outfits.

Here are a few common styling options.

Everyday Casual Look

A classic outfit combination includes:

  • Essential hoodie
  • slim jeans
  • white sneakers

This style feels comfortable while still looking clean.

Streetwear Inspired Outfit

Streetwear enthusiasts often combine the hoodie with:

  • cargo pants
  • oversized jackets
  • chunky sneakers

This look reflects modern urban fashion trends.

Layered Cold-Weather Outfit

During colder months, the hoodie works well as a layering piece. Many people wear it under:

  • puffer jackets
  • denim jackets
  • bomber jackets

Layering adds visual depth while providing extra warmth.

Neutral Colors That Match Everything

The Essential hoodie usually appears in neutral shades. These colors help the hoodie blend easily with other clothing items.

Popular color options often include:

  • black
  • gray
  • cream
  • brown
  • taupe

Because these tones remain neutral, they allow the hoodie to match many different outfits.

Neutral color palettes have become common in modern streetwear because they create a clean and balanced appearance.

The Oversized Fit Trend

Modern streetwear often features relaxed silhouettes. The Essential hoodie follows this trend with a slightly oversized design.

This fit provides several advantages:

  • greater comfort
  • improved movement
  • relaxed streetwear aesthetic

Many people enjoy oversized clothing because it creates a casual yet fashionable look.

The hoodie’s structure allows it to maintain shape while still appearing loose and comfortable.

Essential Hoodie in Modern Fashion Culture

Today, the Essential Hoodies appears in many fashion communities around the world. From casual daily outfits to curated streetwear looks, the hoodie has become a recognizable part of contemporary fashion.

Social media platforms and celebrity appearances have also helped spread the popularity of relaxed streetwear clothing. Musicians such as Justin Bieber and Kanye West have frequently worn oversized hoodies and casual streetwear styles.

When public figures adopt similar clothing styles, fashion trends often spread quickly.

As a result, the Essential hoodie continues to appear in both streetwear collections and everyday wardrobes.

Why the Essential Hoodie Remains Relevant

Fashion trends often change quickly, yet some pieces remain consistently popular. The Essential hoodie continues to attract attention because it combines several qualities that people value.

These qualities include:

  • comfort for everyday wear
  • simple design that avoids loud graphics
  • versatile colors that match many outfits
  • relaxed fit that reflects streetwear culture

Together these elements create a hoodie that works well across different settings and styles.

Final Thoughts

The Essential Hoodie remains one of the most recognizable items in modern streetwear. Its minimal design, comfortable fabric, and relaxed silhouette make it suitable for everyday outfits.

Through the influence of Fear of God Essentials Hoodies and designer Jerry Lorenzo, the hoodie represents a shift toward clothing that blends comfort with style.

Whether paired with jeans, cargo pants, or layered under jackets, the Essential hoodie continues to reflect the relaxed direction of contemporary fashion.

How to become a professional in the random and chaotic world of sports betting

By Mitch Rice

Most people who bet on sports lose money. That statement is not meant to discourage anyone. It is a fact that separates casual bettors from the small number of people who earn a living from it. The gap between those 2 groups is not luck, personality, or some inherited talent for picking winners. It is method. Professional sports bettors treat their work the way an actuary treats risk or the way a commodities trader treats price movements. They build systems, test them, refine them, and then follow those systems with a level of discipline that most people cannot sustain over months, let alone years. Billy Walters maintained a winning record for over 30 years. Bill Benter earned close to $1 billion applying mathematical models to horse racing. Both of them would tell you the same thing: the process matters far more than the prediction.

What Separates a Professional From a Hobbyist

A hobbyist bets on games they enjoy watching. A professional bets on games where the numbers favor them, and those are often games they have no personal interest in at all. This distinction matters because emotional attachment to a team or outcome introduces bias, and bias is the enemy of profitable wagering.

Professionals also measure their performance differently. Win rate alone tells you very little. The preferred metric among serious bettors is closing line value, which compares the odds at which a bet was placed to the odds at the time the event starts. If you consistently beat the closing line, you are extracting value from the market. That pattern, held over thousands of bets, predicts long-term profitability more reliably than any short-term win streak.

Where the Rules Differ and Why It Matters

Professional bettors study the regulatory frameworks of the markets they operate in because the rules dictate what tools and platforms are available to them. Sportsbooks in the U.K. operate under different restrictions than those in Australia, and betting in Canada follows its own provincial model that contrasts with the state-by-state system across the U.S., where 39 states plus Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico now permit legal wagering.

Knowing these differences helps a bettor choose where and how to place wagers without running into compliance problems that could freeze funds or limit accounts.

Bankroll Management Is the Foundation

You will hear professional bettors talk about bankroll management more than they talk about picks. Billy Walters has said publicly that he recommends limiting your maximum wager to 3% of your total bankroll. That number sounds conservative, and it is. The reasoning is straightforward: variance in sports betting is high. Even a bettor with a verified edge will hit losing streaks that last weeks. A 3% cap means those streaks reduce your bankroll gradually rather than wiping it out in a few bad days.

There is no fixed starting bankroll that qualifies someone as professional, but you need enough capital to absorb losses without altering your strategy. If a losing week forces you to change your bet sizing or abandon your model, the bankroll was too small to begin with.

Building a Model That Works

The professional betting community has moved heavily toward quantitative analysis. Machine learning tools now process large volumes of historical data alongside real-time inputs like player injury reports, weather, and lineup changes. These models do not guarantee wins. They help identify situations where the sportsbook’s posted odds undervalue one side.

Building a model requires some comfort with statistics. You do not need a PhD, but you do need to understand probability, regression, and sample size. Many professionals started with spreadsheets before moving to programming languages like Python or R. The model itself is less important than the process of testing it against past data and measuring its accuracy over hundreds or thousands of simulated bets.

Bill Benter’s approach to horse racing followed this exact pattern. He built analysis software, fed it decades of race data, and refined his algorithms until they produced consistent returns.

The Sportsbook Relationship

Here is something that surprises most people: sportsbooks will limit or ban winning bettors. Accounts that consistently beat the closing line get flagged, and the book will reduce the maximum bet size allowed or close the account entirely. This is a real operational concern for professionals.

Managing multiple accounts across different operators becomes part of the job. The U.S. market now generates commercial gaming revenue that grew 9.2% in 2025, reaching $78.72 billion, with the online sports betting segment projected to hit $23.80 billion by 2029 and attract 54.7 million users. That growth has produced a large number of licensed operators, which gives professionals more options for spreading their action across books.

Responsible Practices Are Built Into the System

All 38 regulated U.S. jurisdictions require operators to maintain self-exclusion programs. The gaming industry allocates roughly $500 million per year toward responsible gaming efforts. Professionals tend to support these programs because a regulated market with proper safeguards protects their ability to operate legally and without disruption.

So, Can You Actually Do This?

Yes, but the honest answer is that most people who try will not stick with it long enough. The work is repetitive. The emotional control required is constant. The returns, even for successful bettors, are modest relative to the bankroll required. Those who do make it treat betting as a job with long hours, constant study, and zero tolerance for shortcuts.
