Today, ANKOR have shared the video for new single "DANZO lying ghost," featuring MAH from the band SiM.

Jessie J was hospitalized in Hangzhou, China after hitting her head on a car roof during her No Secrets tour. The 37-year-old singer documented the incident on Instagram, showing herself getting into a black minivan before footage cut to her undergoing a brain scan at the hospital. "Hit my head," she captioned the post. "I should of minded squashing in the back." Despite the injury, Jessie continued with rehearsals and her scheduled concert performance. "I thought I'd broken my neck but I haven't. But I have really hurt my neck and my back," she explained in the video. The "Domino" singer said she took painkillers to push through the show. Fans praised her professionalism in the comments. This health scare follows Jessie's breast cancer diagnosis last June, for which she underwent surgery and had to reschedule tour dates. 

Three legendary R&B acts from the 1990s-Salt-N-Pepa, TLC, and En Vogue-are joining forces for the "It's Iconic" summer tour across U.S. amphitheaters. The tour features a unique "mixtape vibe" format where groups seamlessly blend their sets without intermissions, similar to New Edition's current arena tour. Fans can expect rapid transitions from "Shoop" to "Waterfalls" to "My Lovin'" as members rotate on stage. Salt-N-Pepa have reconciled with Spinderella, who joins the tour after their legal dispute. Three classic En Vogue members participate: Terry Ellis, Cindy Herron, and Maxine Jones. TLC continues as a duo with T-Boz and Chilli following Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes' 2002 death. The tour launches August 15 in Franklin, Tennessee, and concludes October 11 in Concord, California. Chilli announced intensive July rehearsals: "eight hours a day, five days a week."

More than half a century after "American Pie" first changed the shape of popular music, the original troubadour, Don McLean returns to Australia this October to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the song that continues to define generations.

Still touring, still performing and still drawing audiences who have lived with these songs for decades, McLean's upcoming shows offer something increasingly rare, the chance to see one of the great American songwriters of the modern era performing the music that became part of the cultural fabric of the last half the 20th century and beyond.
From the moment the opening lines of "American Pie" ring out, through to enduring favorites including "Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)," "Castles in the Air," "And I Love You So," and more, these are not simply concerts but shared memories revisited in real time.
Along with the songs, McLean reflects on their origins and the path that took them around the world, sharing stories and memories that bring an added intimacy to the live experience.
At 81, McLean remains a commanding presence on stage, delivering the songs exactly as audiences want to hear them - with warmth, clarity and the unmistakable voice that has carried them across five decades. For many, this tour will be a chance to reconnect with music that has soundtracked entire lifetimes. For others, it may be the first and only opportunity to witness one of songwriting's most influential figures in person.
Few songs occupy the space "American Pie" does in popular culture. Released in 1971, it remains one of the most recognized and discussed compositions of the modern era, a song that continues to resonate across generations and musical styles. Yet a Don McLean performance has always been about more than a single hit. His catalogue stands as one of the most enduring bodies of work in contemporary songwriting. Reflective, melodic and instantly recognizable.
This October, Australian audiences will once again have the opportunity to spend an evening with Don McLean and the songs that have travelled with them through the decades.

Melodic rock powerhouse Mattador is excited to announce the release of their new studio album, titled "III", and scheduled for June 19, 2026, via Frontiers Music Srl. The band also shares the new single "Black Water". Carlos Benitez expressed his enthusiasm for the release, by saying: "We are very excited about finally releasing the long-awaited single "Black Water" from our new album. This song is going to kick you up and put you in gear. It's a very hi-energy, rocking tune with great performance, loud choruses, and it's the first song we wrote for this album... So, it's a special one. I can't wait for all of you to rock out to this one!" Carlos Benitez said: "We feel that we have a great album packed with amazing songs, from big ballads and acoustic compositions to rock anthems and so much more. It's an evolution of the band and it has it all. The production is more on the organic side of things, when talking about the sound of the album. We didn't want it to sound like other productions out there today, and we worked hard to find the right balance to make it sound powerful and current but different from what is considered standard nowadays; and we are pleased with the results". "We focused more on the music we wrote for this one. The album was co/produced and mixed by Bob St John, who has worked with Bands like Collective Soul Extreme, Duran Duran, and many others. Newcomer to the band is our bass player and multi-instrumentalist Abraham Millett, who comes from working and touring as a member of Third Eye Blind and many others", he added. "I play drums, and I also produced the album, while on vocals is original singer Mike Villegas, and on guitar is original member Miguel Rodriguez. Collectively all of the original members have been involved in high-profile gigs/bands and working with international artists and world tours during the band's hiatus and bring all of that experience and growth to the group's creative process. With this lineup, we found the right balance that inspired us to make this new album." Mattador, the veteran melodic rock band from Puerto Rico, returns with "III" - their powerful new studio album of all-original material. Originally active from 1988 to 1995, the band earned a loyal following thanks to their explosive live shows and a unique blend of hard rock and Latin influences, performing alongside legends like Aerosmith and Iron Maiden and gaining attention across the European rock scene. Reunited in 2022, the founding members reignited their creative fire, channelling decades of experience into 12 brand-new tracks. From soaring power ballads to riff-heavy anthems and high-octane rockers, "III" captures Mattador's signature sound with renewed energy and vision. Co-produced and engineered by Bob St. John (Extreme, Dokken, Collective Soul), the album also marks the beginning of the band's collaboration with Frontiers Music Srl, poised to bring their music to a global audience. The current lineup features original members Michael Villegas (vocals), Carlos Benitez (drums, vocals), Miguel "Tito" Rodriguez (guitar, violin), and new member Abraham Millet (bass, keyboards). Together, they forge a unique sound that combines the melodic sensibilities of classic Rock with an undercurrent of Hard Rock with a hint of Prog and a contemporary edge. Rooted in Puerto Rico and ready for the world stage, Mattador is back - tighter, louder, and more inspired than ever. 

Lipz take on Paula Abdul's iconic hit and flip it on its head. "Stripping the song down to its core and rebuilding it with roaring guitars and arena-sized energy, we've transformed the pop classic into a bold, hard-hitting rock anthem while keeping the unforgettable melodies intact", they commented.
 The Lipz saga started in 2011, with the visionary Klintberg brothers, Alexander (vocals, guitar) and Koffe (drums), and guitarist Conny Sv rd. The band's journey took a transformative turn when Alexander assumed the role of frontman, paving the way for their distinctive sound. Lipz's musical journey began with the release of their debut single, "Ghost Town", in September 2012, followed by the EP "Psycho" three years later. The quest for a stable bass player added a unique twist, leading to a three-year adventure to complete their debut album. Undeterred by challenges, Alexander took on bass duties, exemplifying the band's unwavering dedication to their craft. In a ground-breaking move in 2023, Lipz joined forces with Frontiers Records, marking a pivotal moment in their musical odyssey. Their latest album, "Changing The Melody", was released in March 2024, ushering the band in a new era of glam rock on the global stage. Renowned for their infectious energy and sonic brilliance, Lipz are rising as trailblazers in the realm of glam rock. Line Up:Alex K Klintberg - Lead vox/guitarJonatan Berg - Guitar/backing voxKoffe K Klintberg - Drums/backing voxTaneli Armas - Bass/backing Vo

Florida Georgia Line performed together for the first time in four years on Thursday night at a Country Radio Seminar event honoring Jason Aldean. Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley reunited to perform "You Make It Easy," a song they wrote for Aldean in 2018. "Man it feels good to be here tonight. It feels good to be here with my brother to celebrate our other brother," Hubbard said before their performance. He thanked Aldean for believing in them and taking them on tour, noting Aldean was among the first artists to record his songs after discovering his music on MySpace. "You Make It Easy" represents the fourth collaboration between Florida Georgia Line and Aldean, reaching number one on Billboard's Country Airplay charts for two weeks upon release. The duo announced an indefinite hiatus four years ago to pursue individual solo careers
