Matty Healy’s favorite artist is James Taylor — at least according to his fiancée Gabbriette, who surprised the 1975 frontman with tickets to see the singer-songwriter back in September. On that tour, Taylor’s supporting act was Tiny Habits, a Boston-based folk-pop trio who went viral for their cover of the 1975’s “Somebody Else” a few years ago. Now, in a full-circle moment, Tiny Habits are covering James Taylor with (a newly-mohawked) Healy.

After getting pushed back a week due to inclement weather, Tyler, The Creator’s annual Camp Flog Gnaw went down at LA’s Dodger Stadium over the weekend.
