Last September Ava Gore and Ethan P. Flynn, aka Silver Gore, shared their great debut EP Dogs In Heaven. Earlier this week they returned with their first new music of 2026, a single called “Black Cherry Liqueur.” It’s got buzzy synths and a killer chorus; it makes existential uncertainty feel like drinking a fruity spritz.…

When Bruce Hornsby announced his new album Indigo Park, part of the draw was collaborations with Bonnie Raitt, Ezra Koenig, Blake Mills, and the late Bob Weir.

she’s green, from Minneapolis, have a gauzy, dreamy sound that they call “moss music.” I think that’s cool. More bands should invent their own fake genres. If she’s green hadn’t done that, we’d just be calling them a shoegaze band, and that description would be reductive and a little inaccurate. They’re definitely in the shoegaze…

Breakbeats in a Bleachers song? That’s what I think I’m hearing at the outset of “the van,” the latest from Jack Antonoff’s band’s forthcoming everyone for ten minutes.

As far as we know, MJ Lenderman is still technically a member of Wednesday, though he stepped back from touring with them in early 2025. I’m sure a lot of factors went into that decision, but two main reasons come to mind: The runaway success of Lenderman’s 2024 solo album Manning Fireworks, and the fact that his long-term relationship with Wednesday bandleader Karly Hartzman had ended. With new live guitarist Jake “Spyder” Pugh in the crew, Wednesday’s tour schedule is still absolutely popping off — including a night at Madison Square Garden opening for Bleachers this September. And last night at the Roadrunner in Boston, they managed to pull off what I think is a really good April Fool’s joke by opening with a snippet of Manning Fireworks‘ title track.
