Noah Kahan joins the long list of musicians publicly objecting to their music being used by the Trump administration. Meanwhile, Megan Moroney's Denver show ended abruptly, and a couple of new album announcements broke through the noise.
Another day, another unauthorized use of a song by the White House.
Noah Kahan publicly called out the White House for using his song 'American Cars' in a Trump promo video, saying he'd never approve its use for the administration. It's the latest in a long pattern of musicians pushing back against political appropriation of their work.
A couple of live music stories with abrupt endings.
Megan Moroney had to cut her Denver show short after just three songs due to illness, apologizing to fans on Instagram. It's a tough call for any touring artist, but she handled it with transparency.
The Las Vegas show 'Absinthe' is going dark for two weeks in November, partly due to the disruptive F1 race. Two outlets picked this up, signaling it's a notable hiccup in the Vegas entertainment calendar.
Some notable announcements for fans waiting on new releases.
Hatebreed announced their first album in six years, 'Fatal Paradox,' due November 6th, with a new single 'Kill Count Increase' out now. Hardcore fans have been waiting for this.
Arin Ray is teasing his upcoming 'LIMBO' EP with the 80s-infused single 'Too Good' and has announced a fall tour. It's a smooth R&B move worth noting.
