Hum Release First Album in 22 Years
Alt-rock outfit Hum have been quiet for some — a long time, actually. The Champaign, Illinois-based band known for their 1995 hit “Stars” has kept an extremely low profile since their 2000 breakup. Sure, they reunited a handful of times since, but that’s been it. Until today. The band dropped their first album since 1998’s Downward Is Heavenward today, which came without any knowledge or previous notice broadcaster anywhere. Inlet features the band’s original members (Matt Talbott, Tim Lash, Jeff Dimpsey, and Bryan St. Pere) and is out now via Polyvinyl. “Vinyl manufacturing has been delayed a bit due to Covid. We are hoping we can ship late Summer. We’ll keep you posted. The band is extremely thankful for the kindness we have received over the years, and we hope everybody i...

Miami Dolphins Rookie QB Reached Out to His Celebrity Music Crush and She Said ‘Thank You Baby’
Miami Dolphins rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa did a Q&A on Twitter recently in which he gave fans a peek into his private life, weighing in on whether pineapple should ever be on pizza (nope), the strangest thing a fan ever said to him (that they named their dog after him) and what peanut butter would be called if it wasn’t called peanut butter (peanut cream). But it was when he was asked who his favorite guilty pleasure singer was that things got interesting. You see, Tagovailoa, 22, said Shania Twain, but then he also said she was his celebrity crush. “Shania if you watch this, from this moment on, please message me back,” he said. Here’s where things got interesting. It seems Shania, 54, caught wind of Tua’s feelings and she tweeted back on Sunday, w...

Bruce Springsteen on America’s Future: ‘I Have the Feeling of Optimism About the Next Election’
Bruce Springsteen has been outspoken in recent months about the issues that America has been facing, from COVID-19 to racism to the ongoing Black Lives Matters protests. Last week on his SiriusXM radio show, he took aim at President Donald Trump, calling him out on the government’s continued lack of response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Boss spoke with The Atlantic’s David Brooks about what’s been going on in the country, and unsurprisingly, had a lot of thoughtful things to say. On whether or not he feels good about the country, Springsteen said, “If you look at all this, you could be pessimistic, but there are positive sides in each of these circumstances. I think we’ve got hope for a vaccine. I think any time there is a 50-foot Black Lives Matter sign leading to the White House, t...
Paris Jackson’s The Soundflowers Release Debut EP: Stream
The Soundflowers, the new musical project of Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris Jackson and her partner Gabriel Glenn, have today released their self-titled debut EP. Stream the five-track effort below via Apple Music and Spotify. Jackson and Glenn first connected on the Sunset Strip after the former caught a performance of the latter’s band, TrashDögs. The pair began sharing music and writing together, finding themselves a natural artistic fit. With Jackson encouraged to share her own music for the first time, they entered the studio with producer Mike Malchicoff (King Princess) and GRAMMY-winning mixer Rob Kinelski (Billie Eilish). The results are something far away from Jackson’s pop lineage, with The Soundflowers focusing instead on acoustic and indie folk sounds with hints of “bluegrass...
