Twin-brother country duo The Kentucky Gentlemen have announced The Rhinestone Revolution Tour in support of their smash debut full-length album that released this summer on River House Artists. Kicking things off in their home state with an October 7 show in Lexington, the pair will make stops in Nashville, New York City, Chicago and more.
The Kentucky Gentlemen on the upcoming tour: “We’re beyond appreciative of the love we’ve received from this album, and we’re so excited to take this music and the Rhinestone Revolution Experience on the road! There’s nothing like seeing these songs bring people together. Get ready for some unforgettable nights!”
The Kentucky Gentlemen have taken their act across some of the biggest stages in country music, from Bourbon & Beyond to the Newport Folk Festival and on tour with The War & Treaty. Their summer has been packed full of live shows, including headlining slots at festivals in Louisville and Lexington, and several appearances around Nashville at CMA Fest, The Concert For Love & Acceptance, Nashville Pride and more. The pair were recently invited to join Grammy Award-winning international artist Estelle for a live performance of her song “Conqueror” and their own “To Kill Me.” When they played at Spotify House during CMA Fest, People called it “arguably one of the most standout moments of the weekend,” and their packed album release show at The Blue Room was hailed by Nashville Scene as “a unique country music experience – one that involved soul, spirit and a hefty amount of rhinestones.”
Rhinestone Revolution finds The Kentucky Gentlemen simultaneously embracing, defying, and expanding the constructs of genre, with tracks ranging from old school country and 2000s pop (“Made for Movin’ On”) to boot-scootin’ drinkin’ songs (“Whiskey Does”) and tender country ballads (“To The Moon” feat. background vocals from Brittney Spencer). Recorded with producer David “Messy” Mescon (Megan Moroney, Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, Reyna Roberts), the new music has landed the pair on the cover of Spotify’s Fresh Finds Country and Amazon’s Breakthrough Country playlists and garnered acclaim from Rolling Stone, BET, Bluegrass Situation, Queerty and Ebony Magazine, who said, “The twin-brother duo is blazing their own trail and turning heads with a fresh fusion of soulful country and R&B…these two are not just musicians but storytellers, fashion icons, and cultural ambassadors.”

Making a grand return, Alabama Shakes share a new single entitled “Another Life” out now. Marking the group’s first original release in over a decade—and their official debut for Island Records—it paves the way for their highly anticipated third full-length and first LP since 2015.
Alabama Shakes have solidified their place as one of today’s most influential rock bands. The trio of Brittany Howard, Heath Fogg, and Zac Cockrell has earned four Grammy Awards, garnered billions of streams, and achieved worldwide multiplatinum success. Their chart-topping Sound & Color earned three Grammys, including Best Alternative Music Album, and a prestigious Album of the Year nomination.
“Another Life”—recorded at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville and produced by Alabama Shakes with longtime collaborator Shawn Everett—channels the original spirit that galvanized a generation of fans, reignited with fresh and focused energy. Smoky keys create a hazy atmosphere while a bluesy guitar echoes in the distance. As if materializing out of the ether, frontwoman Brittany Howard delivers a heart-wrenching and traffic-stopping vocal performance as she wonders, “Can we try again? One more time again? Can we try in another life?” A howling crescendo gives way to an emotionally charged solo, pulling blood, sweat, and tears from the fretboard and through dusty old tube amps. It is passionate, powerful, and precisely what audiences have been clamoring for. It’s simply Alabama Shakes.
Speaking to the track, Howard notes, “When we wrote Another Life, I was thinking about all the lives we carry. The ones we’re living right now, the ones that slipped away because of different choices, the what ifs, the what wasn’t meant to be, the goodbyes, and the chance encounters that feel divine. This song is about those threads and how they stretch across time and space, connecting every version of who we are. It’s about letting them come together, letting them harmonize, and realizing that goodbye isn’t really goodbye. It’s more like I’ll see you later. A collective story that never stops unfolding. I’m glad we opened this door into this reality of us making music together again.”
At the end of 2024, Alabama Shakes came together again for a surprise reunion gig at the Bama Theatre in Tuscaloosa, AL, on December 18th. After bringing the house down, they retreated to the studio and began crafting new music; those sessions yielded “Another Life” and more.
Alabama Shakes is on tour, headlining amphitheaters, arenas, and festivals across North America.
Lollapalooza Chile, Lollapalooza Argentina, and Lollapalooza Brasil have unveiled a powerhouse lineup for the 2026 editions, featuring headliners Sabrina Carpenter, Tyler, The Creator, Chappell Roan, Deftones, Skrillex, Lorde, Doechii, Turnstile, and Lewis Capaldi. The diverse array of artists performing also includes Interpol, Kygo, Peggy Gou, Brutalismus 3000, Addison Rae, Katseye, Marina, Djo, TV Girl, Royel Otis, Riize, and many more.
Tickets are available now.
The 2026 lineup will feature exciting first-ever South American performances for headliners Sabrina Carpenter, Tyler, The Creator, Chappell Roan, Doechii, and Lewis Capaldi, among others.
Lollapalooza Chile takes place March 13-15 at Parque O’Higgins in Santiago.
Rock icon Ann Wilson, singer-songwriter and founder of Heart, will unveil her remarkable life story in the forthcoming feature documentary In My Voice. Told in Ann’s own words, the film traces her extraordinary 75-year journey, from a nomadic childhood to the stages of the world’s biggest arenas, and into a bold new creative chapter. With additional commentary from family, friends, artists, bandmates, and industry executives, the documentary focuses on the authenticity of Ann Wilson.
Drawing from a deep personal archive of home movies, photographs, journals, and never-before-seen footage, the film offers fans an unprecedented window into Wilson’s life and artistry. For the first time, audiences will hear how she found her voice, sustained it across five decades, and allowed it to guide her through fame, adversity, and reinvention.
“This film is my story in my own words, told the way I’ve always wanted to tell it,” says Ann. “It’s about finding my voice, keeping it alive, and sharing the journey with the people who’ve been part of it all along.”
The documentary is directed by Barbara Hall, a Prime-Time Emmy-nominated producer and director celebrated for her passion for remarkable human stories and music. With over 25 years of experience in developing, producing, and directing original programming, Hall has built a career on authentic, immersive storytelling. She has helmed award-winning specials, series, long-form documentary films, concerts, and thematic music documentaries, and is known for securing rare, exclusive rights to bring untold narratives to the screen. A member of the Producers Guild of America, the Guild of Music Supervisors, and the Documentary Producers Alliance, Hall has also been honored with the 2025 Women In Film/Nashville Alice Award Trailblazer Award.
“What an honor to tell the story of one of our greatest rock music voices of all time,” says Hall. “Her voice notwithstanding, her story exceeds a scriptwriter’s imagination, and her courage to share her story is inspiring. She is a master of her craft and is not defined by genre or gender.”
In My Voice promises to be a landmark documentary that brings Ann Wilson’s singular journey to the screen with honesty, power, and, of course, heart. More details, including release information and exclusive content, will be announced soon.
Belinda Carlisle, beloved solo artist, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and voice of the Go-Go’s, returns to her roots with the release of a new studio album Once Upon a Time in California, available now on the Demon Music label.
Featuring ten new studio tracks including her cover of The Association’s timeless hit, “Never My Love” HERE were recorded in Los Angeles and produced by Gabe Lopez, who worked with Belinda on her 2017 studio album Wilder Shores. Belinda explains, “I wanted “Never My Love” to have that quintessential “California” sound, So I came up with a vocal arrangement which was reminiscent of the Beach Boys. The Beach Boys truly influenced my taste in music up to the present day – they are a part of my DNA and this song really captures that feeling for me.”
The first single from the new album,“The Air That I Breathe” HERE was released in June with Belinda stating – “This song has always been one of my very favorites growing up. I love the lyrics and the complicated melody. This was on the list I originally made of songs that I wanted to sing if I ever did a cover album. During the pandemic I started performing karaoke style on my Instagram every Saturday and called it “Saturday Serenades.” This one got such a good response that I thought ‘This definitely should be a contender for the album’. I’m so happy with the way it turned out and I absolutely love the video as it sort of harkens back to my early solo albums and videos.” In addition, Belinda released her version of The Youngbloods’ “Get Together” HERE and the music video HERE stating “Get Together” was relevant when it was released during the Vietnam war and it’s relevant today with all of the craziness going on in our world. I recorded it firstly because I love it and secondly because I think it is perfect for this time.” Belinda also released the Harry Nilsson classic, “One” HERE and said, “It was fun covering this song that I always loved. I listened to different versions and we decided to go for more of a jazzy approach which fit with the video concept which is a nod to Bob Fosse. I’ve never done anything like this before, so I think it might be a surprise for some of my fans.”
Following the success of Belinda’s 2023 EP Kismet, Once Upon a Time in California sees Belinda Carlisle take a deeply personal journey through the golden sounds of her youth with this ten-track collection. Steeped in the spirit of her Californian upbringing, thealbum isa heartfelt tribute to the vintage pop culture that shaped her musical identity.
What sets this album apart is that it’s a celebration of Californian culture that stretches its canvas beyond the familiar evocation of the Laurel Canyon sound. It’s a carefully curated and beautifully realised salute to Belinda’s personal education in pop music, and the magical sounds that arrived in her life from near and far, on the radio and on cherished 45s.
With the assured and distinctive vocal delivery of someone who herself has become one of the Golden State’s greatest exports – initially as frontwoman for the Go-Go’s, who enjoyed Top 10 hits with Our Lips Are Sealed, Vacation and We Got The Beat and as a solo performer with a multitude of hits including Mad About You, Heaven Is A Place on Earth, Circle In the Sand and I Get Weak amongst others, Belinda Carlisle completes this sentimental journey back to her youth with timeless style.
Once Upon a Time in California opens with a stirring remake of the Burt Bacharach & Hal David gem written for Dionne Warwick, Anyone Who Had A Heart. Belinda then pays her respects to such timeless artists as the Carpenters (Superstar), Gordon Lightfoot (If YouCould Read My Mind) and Jim Croce (Time In A Bottle) and to songs for the ages including The Air That I Breathe (The Hollies), Everybody’s Talking (Harry Nilsson) and Reflections Of My Life (Marmalade). The result is an entirely different kind of Californian dreaming for a new generation. Although this marks the first time all ten tracks have been available on one album, three of them – Superstar, If You Could Read My Mind and Get Together have been available on previous Belinda Carlisle collections.
Commenting on the album Belinda says, “I was born and raised in California at a time when music was an important part of Californian culture. I lived and breathed music, it was my great escape – a refuge of fantasy and imagination. Every day after school and when it was summer vacation, I would listen and sing along to the music on the radio for the entire day. Always fantasizing about being a singer myself, one day.
This collection of songs is the best representation of what I loved back then that I could think of – listening to it brings back so many memories of a time and a California that doesn’t really exist anymore. That’s not meant to sound like a bad thing, it’s just different – there was an innocence and energy back then that was unique and magical. Things I doubt will ever be felt in quite the same way again. Here’s to the California of my dreams.”
With Once Upon a Time in California, Belinda Carlisle invites fans old and new to join her on a journey through the melodies that defined a generation.
There’s something truly magical about a band of three that somehow sounds like a stadium-shaking army. You see three figures on stage—just a guitar, bass, and drums—but when they hit the first note, the walls practically rattle. How do they do it? Some of it’s sheer chemistry, some of it’s technical wizardry, and sometimes it’s just the right players in the right place at the right time.
And let’s not forget: they could also be studio wizards. Layered overdubs, sneaky effects, or just the right mix from a genius producer can make a trio sound bigger than most five-piece bands. But even live, these groups proved that three could be mighty. They filled the room with sound, groove, and energy that made you swear someone else was hiding behind the amps.
Let’s celebrate 10 trios who cranked up their sound to larger-than-life proportions. Alphabetically, of course—because we’d never try to rank this kind of greatness!
Beastie Boys What started as a punk trio turned into a hip-hop powerhouse that sounded like a full crew. With stacked vocal trade-offs, bombastic beats, and funky samples, the Beastie Boys built worlds with just three voices and their turntable alchemy.
Cream Eric Clapton’s searing guitar, Jack Bruce’s thundering bass, and Ginger Baker’s jazz-fueled drumming combined into a wall of psychedelic blues. Their improvisations stretched songs into symphonic journeys, each member filling the space like a full band on their own.
Green Day Punk may be fast and scrappy, but Green Day made it sound stadium-sized. Billie Joe Armstrong’s crunchy power chords, Mike Dirnt’s melodic bass runs, and Tre Cool’s explosive drumming turned three-minute songs into anthems that felt massive live.
Hüsker Dü This trio from Minnesota unleashed noise, melody, and speed with an intensity that sounded like five players colliding at once. Bob Mould’s fuzz-soaked guitar and Grant Hart’s powerhouse drumming layered so thick that their sonic storm felt overwhelming—in the best way.
Motörhead Lemmy’s gravelly bass alone could power an entire band, but paired with fast, furious guitar and drums, Motörhead shook the earth. Their sound was raw, loud, and relentless—like a five-piece speed-metal brigade condensed into a trio.
Muse Armed with effects pedals and a flair for the dramatic, Muse made three instruments feel like an orchestra. Matt Bellamy’s layered guitar and piano, Chris Wolstenholme’s booming bass, and Dominic Howard’s drumming created stadium epics that sounded larger than life.
Nirvana With Kurt Cobain’s fuzz-drenched guitars, Krist Novoselic’s deep, anchoring bass, and Dave Grohl’s thunderous drumming, Nirvana blasted into the mainstream sounding like a wall of sound. Every riff and scream came across like a five-person wrecking crew.
Rush Three Canadians who somehow sounded like a progressive rock army. Geddy Lee played bass and keyboards simultaneously while singing, Alex Lifeson filled every corner with guitar textures, and Neil Peart drummed like a percussion symphony. How was this only three people?
The Police With Andy Summers’ atmospheric guitar, Sting’s elastic bass and vocals, and Stewart Copeland’s hyperactive rhythms, The Police created intricate reggae-rock hybrids. Their sparse setup somehow shimmered with layers and space, tricking the ear into hearing more than three players.
ZZ Top Texas boogie never sounded so big. Billy Gibbons’ gritty guitar tone, Dusty Hill’s deep bass growl, and Frank Beard’s rock-solid drumming turned barroom blues into arena-shaking anthems. Toss in those iconic beards (minus Frank, ironically) and they were unstoppable.
So here’s to the trios who sounded like five-piece bands. They remind us that music is about possibility, not numbers. With imagination, chemistry, and a little studio magic, three people can make the earth shake, the sky open, and a room full of fans believe in something bigger than themselves.
In an era of global streaming platforms, TikTok virality, and algorithmic discovery, it’s easy to imagine that physical geography no longer shapes musical careers. Yet the hometown remains a vital launching pad for artists. Local support functions as an incubator: it provides artists with their first sold-out rooms, their earliest champions in press and radio, and a community that feels personally invested in their ascent. More than a symbolic origin point, a strong local base is both a testing ground for artistic identity and a sustainable wellspring of advocacy. When nurtured with care, it becomes the foundation on which national and international visibility can be built.
Here are five forward-looking strategies for cultivating that essential hometown fanbase—practical approaches that combine artistry with community-building and the textures of real connection.1. Treat Local Shows as Community Rituals
Playing in your hometown is filling up your calendar, sure, and it’s also creating a ritual that people anticipate. Each performance should feel like a gathering where music, identity, and place converge. Some artists find this in a gallery or bookstore rather than a traditional club; others transform a warehouse into a seasonal event space. When you play with consistency and a sense of occasion, fans begin to see your shows as cultural markers, woven into the rhythm of the city itself.
2. Collaborate Across Creative Disciplines
The hometown advantage lies in proximity to peers across the arts. Musicians thrive when they become part of a wider cultural dialogue. Teaming up with photographers, dancers, or designers enriches your art while multiplying the networks through which it circulates. Imagine releasing a single alongside a photo zine, or hosting a listening party with a local fashion collective. When your music is encountered in these expanded contexts—visual, tactile, performative—it becomes inseparable from the creative ecosystem of your city.
3. Build Intimacy Through Direct Engagement
Streaming numbers are abstract; eye contact at a merch table is not. That moment of conversation after a show, the decision to sign vinyl, or sharing glimpses of rehearsal online—all of these create a sense of belonging. A hometown fanbase grows strongest when listeners feel like co-conspirators rather than consumers. By offering that intimacy, you make people feel invested in your journey, and they carry that loyalty with them long after the encore fades.
4. Center Local Media and Storytelling
Every city has its own press ecosystem—alt weeklies, college radio, regional podcasts, even neighborhood blogs. Building relationships with these outlets amplifies your story and connects your name to the cultural narrative of the place. A short interview on local radio might not reach a million listeners, but the ones it does reach will remember. The same is true for profiles in small magazines or photo spreads by local journalists. By embracing these storytellers, you ensure your work becomes part of your city’s documented history.
5. Invest in the Long Arc of Community
A fanbase is not just a crowd but a community that thrives when it’s given reasons to gather beyond performances. Some artists host informal listening clubs, others set up open-mic nights to spotlight younger musicians, and still others volunteer within the local arts council. These gestures demonstrate a commitment that resonates far beyond your own music. Over time, the scene you help nourish will sustain you in return, and your name will be synonymous with a spirit of collective growth.
To build a hometown fanbase is to recognize that music flourishes through place, through the convergence of people and memory in real spaces. The strategies above are not prescriptions but pathways toward embedding your work in the cultural fabric of your city. When nurtured with care, these connections extend outward, shaping how your music is received on a larger scale. In an industry defined by rapid turnover and viral noise, hometown loyalty offers a rare form of durability. It reminds us that music is still, at its core, a communal art.
Billie Eilish’s “bad guy,” released in 2019 from her debut album ‘When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?’, blended electropop and trap-pop into a minimalist anthem. Written with Finneas, the track flipped toughness into playful taunting and quickly became a global smash. It topped the Billboard Hot 100—ending the 19-week reign of “Old Town Road”—and reached #1 in over a dozen countries. Certified Diamond in the U.S. and ten times Platinum in Australia, it also earned Record and Song of the Year at the Grammys.
In today’s digital age, visuals are everything. Whether you’re a social media enthusiast, small business owner, or content creator, high-quality photos can make a big difference in how your audience perceives you. But let’s face it—most of us aren’t professional photographers or expert editors. That’s where tools like aFree Magic Eraser step in, making it easier than ever to clean up images, remove unwanted objects, and give photos a professional polish—without expensive software or steep learning curves.

Unlike traditional editing software such as Photoshop, the Free Magic Eraser doesn’t require complex skills. It uses artificial intelligence to detect objects and seamlessly fill in the erased area with natural-looking surroundings.

Bowling For Soup are thrilled to announce a brand new live album in celebration of the triumphant 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album A Hangover You Don’t Deserve!
Recorded during their huge sold out February 2025 UK tour in Manchester, A Hangover You Definitely Deserve (Live) brings the anniversary tour to BFS fans all across the world in its full glory. This includes all the between song banter that is the cornerstone of any live Bowling For Soup experience.
A Hangover You Definitely Deserve (Live) will be released on the 24th of October through the bands’ own Brando/Que-So Records. Frontman Jaret Reddick discusses the initial decision to take the 20th anniversary of “Hangover” on the road and to then make it into a live album: “I remember being terrified as the 20th anniversary of this album approached. We would have to learn all 18 song…at least half of which, we hadn’t played since recording the album. But as we started plowing away through the album, the magic came back. It was such a good time in our lives and our career making this monster! I hope that comes across on this live recording. I sure feel like it does.”
In addition to the album announcement, Jaret, Gary and Rob are offering a first taste of the live “Hangover” experience right now, releasing the much loved A-Hole as a single. This is a decision twenty one years in the making, as Jaret explains:
“A-Hole’ is one of those songs that I always thought could have been a single. Then, when we did the album tour and asked John James Ryan to join us on stage with his Sax, it took on an even greater life! This song was the highlight of my night during the tour. And I am so glad we are getting to release it in this capacity.”
