Jam-Scene Favorites Goose Map Out Fall Tour as New Album ‘BIG MODERN!’ Lands

Goose keep stacking the calendar. The next-gen jam favorites have added a fall tour to an already-loaded 2026, timed to the June 12 arrival of their sixth studio album ‘BIG MODERN!’. The new run kicks off November 3 at the Midland Theatre in Kansas City and rolls through the month, with a three-night stand at Milwaukee’s Miller High Life Theatre and two-night stays at Nashville’s The Truth, Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, and Citizens Live at The Wylie in Pittsburgh.

The new record finds Goose meeting the relentless stimuli and accelerated absurdity of modern culture head-on, leaning into the sprawling versatility and range that’s become their signature. Ahead of release, the band has lined up listening parties on June 10 and 11, with vinyl bars, hi-fi lounges, and listening spaces uniting to spin the album together before it drops.

The fall dates land while Goose are mid-swing through Europe and the UK, including sold-out two-night stands at London’s Electric Brixton and Amsterdam’s Melkweg. They headline Paris’s Élysée-Montmartre on June 1 and hit Denmark’s NorthSide festival on June 5 before heading home for an annual summer headline tour that includes Toronto, two nights at Madison Square Garden, and two sold-out shows at Red Rocks.

The band keeps building its own world too. After a second edition of its Viva El Gonzo destination festival in Mexico, Goose heads back south of the border in early 2027 for two sets at “Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds: 10 Years on the Beach” in Riviera Maya. The musicianship throughout this run is the kind that’s turned casual listeners into devotees. One dollar from every ticket sold on the 2026 summer tour benefits the Western Sun Foundation, a volunteer-run nonprofit supporting grassroots causes in the cities the band visits.

Presale sign-ups are open now, with registered fans getting a unique code for the official Goose presale starting Wednesday, June 3 at 10 a.m. More presales run through the week ahead of the general onsale on Friday, June 5 at 10 a.m.

Phoebe Bridgers Plays Madison Square Garden This Week with $1 Tickets

Phoebe Bridgers is turning her road return into a benefit at one of the biggest rooms in the world. The singer-songwriter has announced a June 4 performance at Madison Square Garden with tickets starting at just $1. The concert, presented by TIDAL, benefits the Community Justice Exchange’s Immigration Bond Freedom Fund, which works to release people from immigration detention while their cases move through the system.

The MSG date caps a busy stretch. Bridgers has spent May criss-crossing the country with last-minute underplays in Roswell, New Mexico, plus Memphis, Fargo, and elsewhere. This one breaks the pattern, trading the small rooms for an arena and a cause.

Tickets go out through Seated. Fans had to register by June 1 at 11:59 PM Eastern, with random-selection results delivered by email and text by 1 p.m. Eastern on June 2. Seats are randomly assigned and distributed electronically by noon on June 4, with any remaining tickets released through a waitlist.

Bridgers knows the building well. She played MSG with supergroup boygenius and MUNA on boygenius’s acclaimed 2023 tour, and returning to that stage on her own terms, for a dollar and a good cause, makes for one of the more compelling nights on her calendar.

A$AP Rocky Adds European Dates to His “Don’t Be Dumb” World Tour

A$AP Rocky is widening the net on his big return to the road. The multi-hyphenate rapper, entrepreneur, actor, and fashion icon has added European dates to his 2026 “Don’t Be Dumb” World Tour, the Live Nation-promoted run built around his first full-length release in eight years. Demand pushed the expansion, and now more markets get a shot at the show.

The tour launched in North America on May 27 with a sold-out night at Chicago’s United Center, where Rocky mixed new album material with fan favorites from across his catalog. The run rolls through Toronto, Boston, Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, and Vancouver before wrapping July 11 at the Prudential Center in New Jersey.

From there it crosses the Atlantic, opening August 25 at ING Arena in Brussels and hitting London, Milan, Munich, Stockholm, Hamburg, Berlin, and Paris along the way. The expanded European and UK leg tacks on a second Lodz, Poland date plus newly added stops in Prague, Budapest, Zagreb, and Belgrade before closing out in Athens. It’s a sprawling run that finally brings one of hip-hop’s most singular voices back to stages worldwide.

Presales start Tuesday, June 2, ahead of the general sale on Friday, June 5 at 10 am local time. VIP packages will be available.

Jazz Legend Oscar Peterson’s Centennial Rolls On with Expansive ‘World Tour’ Box Set

Oscar Peterson’s 100th year keeps unfolding in grand style. Mack Avenue Music Group and Two Lions Records continue the jazz legend’s centennial celebration with ‘World Tour’, their most expansive collection of the pianist’s work yet, out August 28. The set arrives as a limited-edition 6-LP 180-gram vinyl box with a 48-page hardcover book, and also as a 4-CD set with a 20-page booklet.

The collection honors the “Maharaja Of The Keyboard” with five never-before-heard live performances and a TV studio recording, spanning nearly three decades from 1969 to 1996. The accompanying book digs deep into the personal, with never-before-seen archival material that includes Peterson’s own photography, poetry, and remembrances from family, friends, and fellow musicians. The CD edition pairs notes from Kelly Peterson and Celine Peterson with tributes from his peers.

Kelly Peterson framed the project as a labor of love. “The process of choosing the material to include, the effort to ensure this set captures and expresses as much as possible, all that Oscar deserves, in celebration of this significant occasion, was a joyful time,” she said. She described the book as a tour of Oscar’s world, built over months to share a more personal view of the man, complete with previously unpublished photos and poems from his own camera and pen.

The release follows last year’s ‘Around The World’, which gathered solo, duo, and trio performances from 1969 to 1981. ‘World Tour’ widens the lens with concerts captured in Detroit, Basel, Auckland, São Paulo, and his home city of Toronto. Across the recordings, whether playing solo, alongside jazz guitar royalty Joe Pass, or in groups featuring Dizzy Gillespie, Ray Brown, Mary Lou Williams, and Louis Hayes, Peterson’s playing lifts the entire bandstand. The performances trace nearly four decades of musical evolution, and the warmth in every note makes the case for why audiences greeted him like an old friend.

Video: Blink-182 Tear Through iHeartRadio ALTer EGO at The Forum In 2020

Blink-182 brought decades of pop-punk firepower to Inglewood. The trio hit the stage at The Forum for the 2020 iHeartRadio ALTer EGO festival, with Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio handling guitar and vocals alongside mainstays Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker. The chemistry showed as they ripped through a setlist that balanced nostalgia and new material, launching into classics like “Feeling This,” “The Rock Show,” and “What’s My Age Again?” before weaving in cuts from their then-recent album ‘Nine’, including “Darkside” and “I Really Wish I Hated You.” The signature banter and humor stayed front and center, and the night peaked with a playful finale that folded a snippet of TLC’s “No Scrubs” into “Dammit,” sending the sold-out crowd home buzzing.

Genre-Blurring Voice Go Kurosawa Brings Hypnotic Three-Song Set to Live on KEXP

Go Kurosawa turned the KEXP studio into something spellbinding. Recorded April 6, 2026, the live session captures the multi-instrumentalist and vocalist (also handling cornet and percussion) leading a five-piece through three patient, atmospheric pieces: “autowalk,” “moon, please,” and “sada no umi.” Ben Hackett adds vocals, wind instruments, and keys, with Taro Yamazaki on bass, Ross McReynolds on drums and percussion, and Rich Ruth on guitar, the players locking into textures that build and breathe across each track. Hosted by Cheryl Waters, the performance is a quietly commanding showcase of a singular musical mind at work.

Celine Dion Stretches Blockbuster Paris Residency into May 2027

Celine Dion can’t keep up with the demand, so she’s adding more nights. The pop powerhouse has announced ten new dates for May 2027 at Paris La Défense Arena, answering what promoters call unprecedented demand from fans who registered for the initial Celine Dion Paris 2026 presale. What started as a five-week engagement already grew by six shows in the fall, and now the residency stretches deep into the following spring.

Concerts West/AEG Presents and Inter Concerts say dedicated sales windows for the added shows go to a select number of fans who previously registered through Fair AXS and the Paris La Défense Arena venue presale. Presales begin Wednesday, June 3, ahead of the general sale on Friday, June 5 at 23:59 CEST. Selected fans get an email from their registration point with purchase instructions the day before. Ticket and Hotel Experiences also open Wednesday, June 3 at 10 am CEST.

The show itself runs through Dion’s most beloved hits in both French and English, a tribute to the songs that have carried her career across generations. Award-winning show designer Willo Perron handles creative direction, and the production promises a reunion worth the wait between one of the greatest performers of her era and the fans who’ve followed her.

Authorized ticket sellers include Paris La Défense Arena, AXS France, Ticketmaster France, Fnac Spectacles, and Event Travel. As before, a limited number of VIP Packages and a select quantity of officially issued tickets through AXS Premium and Ticketmaster Platinum are available across all shows, subject to availability.

ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons Pulls in Keith Urban for New Single “Brown Paper Bag”

Billy Gibbons has a new single out, and he brought a friend. The ZZ Top guitarist has released “Brown Paper Bag,” a track featuring Keith Urban on lead guitar. Gibbons kept the description simple on social media, calling Urban “my good buddy, Keith Urban, playing some good-ass guitar.” No further details on the song have surfaced yet.

The single adds to Gibbons’ run of solo work outside ZZ Top. He’s put out three solo albums to date, all via Concord Records, starting with 2015’s ‘Perfectamundo’, followed by 2018’s ‘The Big Bad Blues’ and 2021’s ‘Hardware’. “Brown Paper Bag” keeps the momentum going between projects.

The release lands just ahead of a busy summer for ZZ Top. The trio opens a European tour in Tartu, Estonia on June 22, then heads back to the States for more shows in August.
