Margo Price Announces New EP Live From the Other Side, Performs “Hey Child” on Colbert: Watch

Margo Price has announced Live From the Other Side, a new audiovisual EP due out July 16th via Loma Vista Recordings. To preview the project, the country singer filmed a Late Show with Stephen Colbert performance featuring a new version of “Hey Child” with Adia Victoria, Allison Russell, Kam Franklin, and Kyshona Armstrong. Live From the Other Side will contain a cover of The Beatles’ “Help” (also featuring Victoria, Russell, Franklin, and Armstrong), a solo arrangement of “That’s How Rumors Get Started,” and “Hey Child.” In a statement, Price reflected on the year since she released the excellent That’s How Rumors Get Started and shared how Tina Turner influenced her new project. “I hope it kept you warm during those cold, lonely nights,” she said about Rumors. “Some things changed f...

beabadoobee Performs “Last Day On Earth” on Fallon: Watch

Celebrating the release of her new EP Our Extended Play, beabadoobee appeared as the musical guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Friday night. The UK singer-songwriter (and our 2020 Rookie of the Year) performed the jangly single “Last Day On Earth”, turning a studio space into a teen’s dream party with the help from a few extras — and a cameo from Simon Pegg. Keeping in line with beabadoobee’s early 2000s aesthetic, the set of her “Last Day On Earth” performance felt straight out of an episode of Lizzie McGuire. As she perused the set with her microphone in hand, she swung by a DJ booth, jumped on a bed with a crew of friends, and exchanged a handshake with Pegg. Check it out below. Our Extended Play EP, which beabadoobee made in collaboration with members of the 1975, was ...

Lucy Dacus Channels Classic Films With “Brando” Performance on Kimmel: Watch

Lucy Dacus’ third album, Home Video, is out this Friday, and the singer-songwriter celebrated release week with a remote musical guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Performing her latest single “Brando” from the Virginia Repertory Theatre, Dacus aptly brought an old Hollywood style to complement the track’s classic film references. Complete with sequined dresses, bowties, and a dance routine that would make Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers proud, Dacus’ performance of “Brando” begins with a black-and-white filter that bursts into color just in time for the song’s climax. With the vintage setting of the theatre as their backdrop, Dacus, her band, and her dancers feel like they’re lifted straight from a 1940s film. Watch the clip below. “Brando” is the fourth and final preview we get o...

Lil Nas X Perseveres Past Wardrobe Malfunction for Memorable SNL Debut: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-23T14:40:08+00:00“>May 23, 2021 | 10:40am ET Lil Nas X helped close out Saturday Night Live’s 46th season by performing his two latest singles: the chart-topping “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” and his recent follow-up, “Sun Goes Down”. However, Lil Nas X’s appearance on SNL’s season finale nearly proved disastrous, and not because angry conservatives bum-rushed the stage. Rather, all that gyrating during Lil Nas X’s performance of “Montero” caused the front of his pants to split open. He spent the last minute of his performance with one hand on his crotch — which, to be honest, wasn’t all that out of place when juxtaposed alongside some of the other sultry moves carried out by ...

Olivia Rodrigo Performs “Drivers License” & “good 4 u” on SNL: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-16T15:27:32+00:00“>May 16, 2021 | 11:27am ET Fast-rising pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo made her Saturday Night Live debut on the penultimate episode of Season 46. Rodrigo used her first performance of the evening to sing her record-smashing debut single, “Drivers License”. Upon its release earlier this year, the power pop ballad set a record on Spotify for most streams on a single day (17 million), on its way to becoming the latest song to reach 100 million streams on the streaming service. It also spent eight consecutive weeks atop Billboard’s Hot 100. Later in the episode, the 18-year-old Rodrigo performed the live debut of her latest single, the fiery pop punk anthem ...

The Black Keys Bring the Mississippi Blues to Late Show with Stephen Colbert: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-15T17:47:03+00:00“>May 15, 2021 | 1:47pm ET The Black Keys supported the release of their new Mississippi Hill Country blues tribute album, Delta Kream, by appearing remotely on Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Friday night. Filmed to tape at the legendary Blue Front Café, Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney, and their backing band delivered slick covers of Junior Kimbrough’s version of the John Lee Hooker classic “Crawling Kingsnake” and R.L. Burnside’s “Going Down South”. Replay both performances below. Also check out Paolo Ragusa’s interview with Carney about the making of Delta Kream.

Madness Transform Kimmel into “Our House”: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-12T16:33:41+00:00“>May 12, 2021 | 12:33pm ET Time is a walking bass line, and despite some funky digressions along the way, we always seem to wind up back where we started. Perhaps that’s why a certain brand of pre-reggae Jamaican jamming keeps getting re-interpreted for different eras, and why the two-tone legends Madness are once again skascendent. The UK outfit is gearing up for a 2022 tour, and which they’ll preview with a new livestream, “The Get Up”, on May 14th. This busyness is to expected, because, as they demonstrated on Kimmel last night, during the skanaissance, every house is “Our House”. “Our House” came out on the 1982 album The Rise & Fall, ...

Weezer Perform “All the Good Ones” on Fallon: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-11T14:36:10+00:00“>May 11, 2021 | 10:36am ET Weezer were the musical guest on Monday night’s episode of Jimmy Fallon, in promotion of their new album, Van Weezer. During their appearance, the rock veterans performed “All the Good Ones”. The track is a melodic ballad that wouldn’t be too out of place with Rivers Cuomo and company’s previous catalog, except for the heavier ’80s hard rock-inspired guitar riffs. “Rock and roll sounds better in the car,” he sang passionately on Fallon. “I just love the way she plays guitar/ When she dives down on the whammy bar/ She’ll be stuck on repeat, repeat in my head.” Van Weezer was released last week and was previewed by singles like...

Miley Cyrus Covers Dolly Parton’s “Light Of A Clear Blue Morning” on SNL: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-09T05:15:59+00:00“>May 9, 2021 | 1:15am ET Miley Cyrus made her seventh (!) appearance on Saturday Night Live as the musical guest on this weekend’s episode hosted by Elon Musk. Cyrus’ presence was felt from the very onset, as she soundtracked a Mother’s Day-themed cold opening. As various SNL cast members appeared alongside their mothers, Cyrus sang “Light Of A Clear Blue Morning”, a song by her own god mother, Dolly Parton. Later in the episode, she teamed with The Kid Laori for the live debut of her remix of “Without You”, and performed the title track to her latest album, Plastic Hearts. Replay all of the performances below. Related Video Saturday Night Live will close o...

Beach Bunny Float Through “Cloud 9” on Fallon: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-05-02T02:37:38+00:00“>May 1, 2021 | 10:37pm ET Beach Bunny floated on cottony clouds for their performance of “Cloud 9” on Fallon on Friday night. The Tonight Show appearance was the first step of a Beach Bunny victory lap, as the journey that began with the 2020 album Honeymoon culminates in a gigantic North American tour which the Chicago outfit announced earlier this week. The band gave prospective ticket holders plenty of cause to reach for their wallets. Visually, the set was stunning, with blue and violet backdrops adding warmth to the suspended clouds. Even as the melody bounced up and down, singer Lili Trifilio injected a playful emotionality in...

Kid Cudi Wears Dress on SNL in Tribute to Kurt Cobain: Watch

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-04-11T14:23:47+00:00“>April 11, 2021 | 10:23am ET Kid Cudi appeared as the musical on Saturday Night Live last night, where he performed a pair of songs from his 2020 album Man on the Moon III: The Chosen. Cudi’s late-night spins on “Tequila Shots” and “Sad People” will be remembered as much for the rapper’s wardrobe than the performances themselves — through both were impressive in their own right. For “Tequila Shots”, Cudi wore a T-shirt donning the image of former SNL cast member Chris Farley, while “Sad People” saw him wear a floral dress akin to the cardigan Kurt Cobain famously wore. Replay both performances below. Cudi has long expressed his admiration of Cobai...

The Wallflowers Announce New Album Exit Wounds, Share New Song “Roots and Wings”: Stream

<span class="localtime" data-ltformat="F j, Y | g:ia" data-lttime="2021-04-09T16:52:07+00:00“>April 9, 2021 | 12:52pm ET Jakob Dylan and The Wallflowers have announced a new album titled Exit Wounds, which marks their first full-length in nearly a decade. It will be released on July 9th via New West Records, one week before the band’s 53-date arena tour. Exit Wounds spans 10 songs and was produced by Butch Walker. Singer-songwriter Shelby Lynne appears on four tracks. In a statement, Dylan explained the meaning of the album’s title. “I think everybody — no matter what side of the aisle you’re on — wherever we’re going to next, we’re all taking a lot of exit wounds with us. Nobody is the same as they were four years ago,” he said. “That, to me, is what E...
