Lady Gaga Unveils “Hold My Hand” for Top Gun: Maverick Soundtrack: Stream
Lady Gaga has contributed a new song called “Hold My Hand” to Top Gun: Maverick, the long-delayed sequel to the 1986 action classic. Ahead of the film’s May 27th release, “Hold My Hand” is streaming in full below. “When I wrote this song for Top Gun: Maverick, I didn’t even realize the multiple layers it spanned across the film’s heart, my own psyche, and the nature of the world we’ve been living in,” Gaga wrote on Instagram last week to tease the song. “I’ve been working on it for years, perfecting it, trying to make it ours. I wanted to make music into a song where we share our deep need to both be understood and try to understand each other — a longing to be close when we feel so far away and an ability to celebrate life’s heroes.” The singer continued: “I’m so grateful t...
Portishead and IDLES Deliver Truth and Fury at War Child UK Benefit Concert: Recap + Setlist
A variety of local heroes turned out for the UK’s “Help! A War Child Benefit Concert” at Bristol’s O2 Academy on Monday night – but it was the city’s twin bastions of loud and quiet rebellion who stole the show. With all donations from the night contributing to the unfolding crisis in Ukraine – alongside match-funding from the UK government – the concert offered an opportunity for the bands on show to nail their colors to the evening’s philanthropic mast in style. Alongside Portishead and IDLES, the lineup featured Katy J Pearson and Heavy Lungs. It’s worth remembering that Bristol was the English city whose residents dumped the statue of slave trader Edward Colston in their harbor in the summer of 2020, leading to an international debate that rippled across the US and beyond about whose n...

Eyedress Ends His Coachella Debut with an Epic Guitar Smash
In the months after Eyedress‘ HYPEBEAST Diaries, the rising indie star has witnessed his greatest dreams come true, whether the wider music industry cares or not. Both “Jealous” and “Romantic Lover” have earned Platinum and Gold certifications, which can be partially explained by his accidental virality on TikTok and to the past decade that he’s spent fine-tuning his sound. Eyedress’ debut on Coachella’s Sonora Stage is a milestone for the LA-based musician because he’s been able to get to this point by doing things his way with his friends. Eyedress is a notoriously simple guy, but preparing for Coachella requires countless tasks that occur outside of the studio where he and his recently formed band practice: there are hours of rehearsals, remixing on-stage visuals with Brvinfreeze, and w...
