Tom Petty Ex-Wife’s Lawsuit Over Universal Music Fire Dismissed Again
The class action lawsuit was originally filed against UMG on June 21, 2019, by Soundgarden, Hole, Tom Whalley, Steve Earle and Jane Petty, who were seeking to recover half of any settlement proceeds and insurance payments — reportedly valued at $150 million — that UMG received due to the 2008 fire on the Universal Studios backlot in a confidential settlement, according to court papers. The artists were suing UMG for breach of contract, negligence, reckless conduct and misrepresentation, as well as other causes of action claiming that they suffered irreparable losses to their master recordings. But Hole, Soundgarden, Tom Whalley, and Steve Earle all voluntarily dropped out of the litigation when it was demonstrated they suffered no losses due to the fire. On April 6, U.S. Distri...

Revivalists Singer David Shaw Unveils New Single, Preps NFTs for Debut Solo Album
“Feeling Good was inspired by Shaw’s recent sojourn to Los Angeles where the shift in lifestyle got him thinking about how one’s environment can shift the way artists think about influence. “Every day I’d get up early in the morning and head down to the coffee shop for a cortado before heading out to the beach for a swim. I was mostly listening to Beck, a little Sublime and a lot of Bowie at the time and the intersection of those influences mixed with my geographical location got me in the mood to make a song that went with the kind of days and nights that I was having,” he says. David Shaw was produced by four-time Grammy-winning producer Jack Splash, who Shaw calls “the perfect choice to help bring these songs to life in a fresh yet pedestrian kin...
‘Tina’ Doc’s Oscar-Winning Directors on Bringing a Fresh POV to Tina Turner’s Life
This Saturday (March 27), Lindsay and Martin’s new documentary Tina premieres on HBO at 8 p.m. ET and will stream on HBO Max. Covering everything from her hard-scrabble childhood to her abusive marriage to Ike Turner to her against-the-odds comeback and global domination in the 1980s, Tina paints a portrait not just of Tina Turner the human but of the Tina Turner narrative, detailing her frustration as she was routinely forced to re-live traumatic incidents from her life during countless press spots. Favoring new interviews with people who knew her instead of celebrity testimonials, Tina serves both as an introduction to the uninitiated and an important summation of her remarkable life and talent for longtime fans. Ahead of Tina‘s HBO premiere, directors Lindsay and Martin hopp...

Vicky Cornell has been embroiled in an ongoing legal dispute with the band’s remaining members after her husband’s sudden death on May 18, 2017 at the age of 52 while on tour in Detroit.

She also demanded the court order the band to open its finances to her and to provide her with an inventory o...
Machine Gun Kelly & Travis Barker Go Goth For ‘A Girl Like You’ Cover in ‘Paradise City’ Trailer
A director’s note on the preview explains, “For kids that grow up with one parent, you can go on one of two paths: You can blame the world, your parents, blame God, blame lack of God, or it can light a fire under you that you’re gonna make it no matter what. Paradise City is the show made to inspire these millions of teenagers and young adults. It reminds us that there is no light without darkness, that sorrow and heartbreak can be the greatest drivers of art. It reminds us that there is always hope, that you are never alone and that music is always there if you let it be.” Creator/director Ash Avildsen explains that almost everything in the show was inspired by real events he experienced growing up in a single mom household in which he was estranged from his father...
10 Album Covers Worse Than Justin Bieber’s Justice
Justin Bieber’s new album, Justice, immediately caught people’s attention when it was first announced — not necessarily for the music it promised but for having a really terrible album cover. Along with Bieber’s painful attempt to edgily pose in a dim, green tunnel, as if he was the new Skins cast member, eagle-eyed music lovers also spotted the album font’s similarity to the band Justice’s logo. <img data-attachment-id="1114012" data-permalink="https://consequenceofsound.net/2021/03/justice-cease-and-desist-justin-bieber/justin-bieber-justice-logo-cease-and-desist/" data-orig-file="https://consequenceofsound.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/justin-bieber-justice-logo-cease-and-desist.jpg?quality=80" data-orig-size="1200,675" data-comments-opened=&q...
