The xx have released a new video for “Say Something Loving.” Filmed in the band’s hometown of London, the video was directed by renowned photographer and filmmaker Alasdair McLellan, who also directed the video for previous single “On Hold” (which was shot in Marfa, Texas). “Say Something Loving” is taken from The xx’s hugely acclaimed third album I See You, which debuted at #1 in the UK and #2 in the U.S. album charts on release in January.
Of the video, The xx say, “We wanted to celebrate our home town and revisit some of the places that reminds us of our friendship when we were growing up. We're so happy to be back home and so excited to begin our Night + Day residency in Brixton this week!”

Today, Cold War Kids gave fans another taste of their new album, LA Divine, with the release of a new track, "Can We Hang On?," and the accompanying video. The clip, which premiered on Vevo, was shot at El Porto Beach in Los Angeles- watch it HERE.
"'Can We Hang On?' is a hopeful love song that looks back with nostalgia on the good old days but is uncertain about the future," explains Cold War Kids' singer/guitarist/pianist Nathan Willett.
The band has also revealed the cover art and track listing for LA Divine, which is set for release on April 7 on Capitol Records. Fans who pre-order the album will receive instant downloads of "Can We Hang On?"plus the first single,"Love is Mystical" in addition to special limited edition bundles which include signed albums available here.
Cold War Kids will celebrate the release of LA Divine - their sixth album and first for Capitol Records - with a performance and signing at Fingerprints Music in Long Beach, CA (April 8).Fans can sign up to attend the Fingerprints event by pre-ordering the album at the store where they will receive a limited edition poster with purchase.
The band kicks off a North American headline tour tonight at the Okeechobee Festival in Florida. Cold War Kids will also join Young The Giant on the "Home of the Strange Tour," beginning August 2 in Louisville, KY. The run will include a performance at Central Park SummerStage and continue on through the end of September. Tickets for all shows are available at coldwarkids.com. See below for itinerary.
LA Divine, Cold War Kids' most expansive and ambitious effort so far, pays tribute to Los Angeles in all its strange glory, embodying the Long Beach-bred band's endless fascination with their adopted hometown. "In many ways, LA is the least divine city, the most hedonistic and irreverent and disconnected from history," says Willett. "LA's so massive, I feel like I'm always finding something new in it," adds bassist Matt Maust. "It's an incredibly weird place, and I'm happy to have made an album that totally honors that weirdness."
Coming on the heels of 2014's Hold My Home - which featured the chart-topping, Gold-certified single "First" - the band felt emboldened to bring a more deliberate, purposeful spirit to their music than ever before. Produced by their repeat collaborator Lars Stalfors (Health, Local Natives), LA Divine opens with lead single "Love Is Mystical": a soulful, sweeping anthem about seeking transcendence and greater depth in love. "Love is Mystical" held the No. 1 spot for Most Increased Plays at AAA radio for two consecutive weeks and is already in the Top 5 of the Alt 18 Countdown. The single already has more than two million streams on Spotify globally and jumped into both Spotify's U.S. and Global Viral charts . Watch the accompanying "Love is Mystical" video HERE and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the video.
Cold War Kids are Nathan Willett, Matt Maust, Joe Plummer, Matthew Schwartz, and David Quon. Formed in 2004 in Fullerton, CA, the band has sold more than 800,000 adjusted albums, over two million singles, and racked up nearly 200 million streams to date.

Boston-based singer-songwriter Juliana Hatfield will be releasing a brand-new record titled Pussycat (American Laundromat Records) on April 28, following the kick-off of a national tour that will start on April 23. The first single, "Impossible Song" can be heard here: https://soundcloud.com/laundromat13/impossible-song/s-MlVz9
"I wasn't planning on making a record," says Juliana Hatfield, of her new Pussycat album. In fact, she thought her songwriting career was on hiatus, and that she had nothing left to say in song form; that she had finally said it all after two decades as a recording artist. But then the presidential election happened. "All of these songs just started pouring out of me. And I felt an urgency to record them, to get them down, and get them out there."
Hatfield produced and played every instrument other than drums-bass, keyboards, guitars, vocals. From start to finish-recording through mixing-the whole thing took a total of just twelve and a half days to complete.
"It was a blur. It was cathartic," says Hatfield. "I almost don't even understand what happened in there, or how it came together so smoothly, so quickly. I was there, directing it all, managing it, getting it all done, but I was being swept along by some force that was driving and controlling me. The songs had a will, they forced themselves on me, or out of me, and I did what they told me to do. Even my hands-it felt like they were not my hands. I played bass differently-- looser, more confident, better."
Pussycat comes on the heels of last year's Hatfield collaboration with Paul Westerberg, the I Don't Cares' Wild Stab album, and before that, 2015's Juliana Hatfield Three ("My Sister", "Spin The Bottle") reunion/reformation album, Whatever, My Love (American Laundromat Records)
"I've always been prolific and productive and I have a good solid work ethic but this one happened so fast, I didn't have time to think or plan," says Hatfield. "I just went with it, rode the wave. And now it is out of my hands. It feels a little scary."
Pussycat is being released into a very tense, divided and inflamed America. The songs are reflective of that atmosphere - angry ("When You're A Star"), defiant ("Touch You Again"), but also funny ("Short-Fingered Man"), reflective ("Wonder Why"), and even hopeful ("Impossible Song"), with its chorus of 'What if we tried to get along/and sing an impossible song').
The tour will kick off in Hatfield's hometown of Cambridge, MA then head to Philly, Vienna, Virginia and to NYC's Mercury Lounge with more national dates to be announced soon.
Juliana will also be part of the Boston Stands with the ACLU show at the Paradise in Boston, MA on March 18.
Pussycat is currently available for exclusive pre-order in limited edition bundles on the American Laundromat Records website.

Ed Sheeran has released his new album “÷” (pronounced divide) via Atlantic Records.
The multi-GRAMMY winner’s third studio album is available now on all digital retailers and streaming partners (full track listing below).
It went to #1 on iTunes in 96 countries around the world, including the US and UK. Lead single “Shape Of You” debuted at #1 and has subsequently held the top spot for 5 weeks and counting on the Billboard Hot 100. With the album’s “Castle on the Hill” entering the Hot 100 at #6, the British singer-songwriter became the first artist ever in the chart’s 58 year history to have two singles simultaneously debut in the Top 10.
“Shape Of You” and “Castle On The Hill” have since been certified 2x-Platinum and Gold respectively by the RIAA, becoming the first two songs released in 2017 to receive certifications this year. “Shape Of You” currently stands at #1 on both the Top 40 and Hot AC radio charts with over 200 million in total audience. Likewise, the hit single tops the iTunes “Overall Songs” chart, and both Spotify’s Global and U.S. Top 50 charts, where Sheeran is the most popular artist worldwide.
Sheeran will celebrate his album release day performing on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” this evening, followed by a “CBS Sunday Morning” profile and a performance at the “2017 iHeartRadio Music Awards” both airing on March 5. He’ll return to NYC’s Rockefeller Plaza for an outdoor concert on “TODAY” on March 8. Sheeran kicked off his high profile television blitz last month, performing on “Saturday Night Live” (“Shape Of You”/”Castle on the Hill”), then travelling cross-country overnight to take the stage at the 59th GRAMMY Awards less than 24 hours later.

Some sure-to-be intriguing sounds coming from one of my standout performers at the recent Stagecoach Festival...
When Lindi Ortega went in search of some quiet last year, the award-winning artist was pleasantly surprised to find a voice she hadn't heard in some time – her own.
Amid sparse, atmospheric production, it's precisely this voice – a combination of Ortega's fatalistic perspective expressed with her evocative soprano – that grips your attention on new EP, Til the Goin' Gets Gone.
A dogged resilience permeates this unadorned collection – three originals and a cover of Townes Van Zandt's "Waiting ‘Round To Die." The songs are the hard-won spoils of an internal war with words that struck after an extended stretch of touring, addressed in the EP's title track about the detours and ditches that a traveling musician faces.
"What a Girl's Gotta Do," a song that is the silver lining of an otherwise dreadful date, explores the gritty pragmatism of making ends meet. Alongside the title track, this song offers a second metaphor about artistic life that strengthens the EP's overall sense of resolve. Ortega's somber rendition of "Waiting ‘Round to Die," acknowledges a personal debt – her recent discovery of the legendary songwriter's music is what finally cured her writer's block. The closer, "Final Bow," came when Ortega assumed she only had one song left in her. "I thought I had to quit music but I wanted to leave gracefully," she says. "But then I decided to get up and sing some more." As a whole, this statement captures the essence of Ortega's new EP – it's about dusting off, gutting it out, and getting up for another round.
Ortega recorded Til The Goin' Gets Gone in a converted East Nashville manor, where therapy horses linger on the property. Recording with her longtime guitarist James Robertson, Ortega satisfied a personal goal to co-produce, which she did with Jay Tooke and Jason "Rowdy" Cope. The small production team and minimalist instrumentation make an intimate, immediate setting for Ortega's stark vision of the human condition. Although classic country is an indelible part of her musical history, the EP also sets the tone for the next chapter of her career: "I'll always love Loretta, Dolly and Patsy. But I just want more space. I want more ambience."
Ortega's guitar-playing chops and innate country music instincts put her in an elite group of artists; she has earned an unusually inclusive type of success with both indie cred and mainstream country recognition. From supporting Carrie Underwood on the CMA Awards to her opening slot on Chris Stapleton's upcoming Canadian arena tour, Ortega is a sought-after and unique personality in Nashville's music community and beyond.
Til The Goin' Gets Gone will be released by Shadowbox Music on Mar 17, 2017.

I was lucky enough to catch Ride's 2014 shows at Coachella 2 and the Fox Theater in Pomona, Calif. I'm excited about the new material. Hope they add some West Coast dates to the tour. Read on for the latest...
Following the release of two new songs, British band Ride have announced that in July they will be playing North American shows. The band will head to Toronto, Boston, New York, Philly, and DC for a slew of headline performances, with tickets available now. Ride shared "Charm Assault," followed by "Home Is A Feeling," the first new music that the group had released in 20 years.
Ride's upcoming album, scheduled for release this summer via Wichita Recordings, sees the band reunited with label co-founders Dick Green and Mark Bowen, who they worked with during the band's early years on Creation Records. It also brings the band back together with mixer Alan Moulder (Arctic Monkeys, Smashing Pumpkins, The Killers) who mixed their seminal 1990 album Nowhere and produced its follow up Going Blank Again.
After a lengthy hiatus, Ride reformed in 2014. Comprised of Andy Bell, Mark Gardener, Laurence Colbert, and Steve Queralt, the band sold out headline tours around the world to a plethora of critical acclaim, as well as show stopping turns at festivals including Coachella, Primavera and Field Day. Hear "Home Is A Feeling", "Charm Assault." See below for tickets and details on the band's upcoming shows, and stay tuned for more from Ride soon.
