Andrew Bird Reunites With Squirrel Nut Zippers' Jimbo Mathus for New Joint Album
Instagram
Having reunited with his former bandmate to work on ‘These 13’ together, the folk rocker praises his collaborator for ‘representing his own branch of the American musical tree.’
Jan 13, 2021
AceShowbiz – Folk rocker Andrew Bird has reunited with his former Squirrel Nut Zippers bandmate for a new joint album.
The singer worked with Jimbo Mathus in the swing and jazz ensemble back in the late 1990s and they reconnected last year, when Bird joined the group on its song “Train on Fire”.
Now the two musicians are heading back into the recording studio together to work on a full-length project, titled “These 13”, which will be released in March (21). In the meantime, they’ve given fans a taste of what to expect by sharing their first single, “Sweet Oblivion”.

In a statement, Bird heaps praise on Mathus by saying, “Up until meeting Jimbo, all my musical heroes were dead.”
“Jimbo was anything but and just oozed musicality of a kind I thought was extinct. Had I not met Jimbo, who knows, but I think my music would have gone on a much more cerebral, complex trajectory. He is an enigma, a walking contradiction: wild yet refined, worldly yet colloquial. He represents his own branch of the American musical tree.”
“It’s been my dream for years now to make this record with Jimbo,” he adds. “Just guitar, fiddle and our very different voices. I wanted to make sure you can really hear him as if for the first time.”
Mathus added, “Musically speaking, Andrew challenged me early on. As I had the deep south rural musical upbringing but had yearned to know more of the Chicago and New York scenes of those early days of American popular music. Bird had schooled himself on that, absorbing the European strains of American music and theater, as well as the Chicago-based indigenous albeit transplanted African American musical heritage. It was a true mutual benefit society and we both pursued those goals to a final conclusion.”
“At some point after Andrew had been on the road as Bowl of Fire, he began mutating his music and creating an entirely new form. In other words, he started to become the artist he needed to be at that time and so did I,” he continued.You can share this post!

The 1975 lead vocalist is ‘very excited’ about his upcoming music project where he teams up with ‘some brilliant artists’ including the ‘Boom Clap’ hitmaker.
Jan 13, 2021
AceShowbiz – Matty Healy has teased his upcoming collaborations with Charli XCX and Beabadoobee.
The 1975 frontman has admitted he’s “very excited” about the new tunes he has with some “brilliant artists” and confirmed they include the “1999” hitmaker and his record label Dirty Hit’s hottest signee.
The “Love Me” hitmaker wrote on Instagram alongside a series of snaps from his home, “Lockdown in the bunker. Keeping sane by cleaning and taking pictures currently. Very excited about new music in the coming months with some brilliant artists (thank you to them!) – new playlist tomorrow, for sanity reasons.”
And when quizzed by a follower if he is teaming up with the singers, he replied, “BOTH!”
Back in August 2019, the “Chocolate” hitmaker revealed to fans that he had sent a “beat” to “Gone” singer Charli and shared it’s a “monster tune.”See also…
He tweeted at the time, “Sent her a beat at like 5pm yesterday and woke up this morning to a HIT. A MONSTER TUNE!! I’m prolific but she’s on some s***@charli_xcx (sic)”
However, when asked whether his band or himself will feature on the track, Matty said that he didn’t know and added that the band No Rome – who are signed to Dirty Hit – and his bandmate George Daniel worked on the song.
He replied, “Not sure yet but me and Rome and George produced.”
Charli also confirmed a collaboration was in the works.
She said in an interview, “We sent some ideas back and forth, and I’m such a fan of (Matty) and the band. They just get it, and they don’t get it at the same time, which I think is the best way to make music. And I think he’s such a smart lyricist, it’s just very smart and also fun, and I feel like they really love pop music.”
“And I love that, and I’m so inspired by that energy and that uniqueness. So yeah, I don’t know what’s going on. But I really admire their song writing, so hopefully something will come of it.”You can share this post!

Tyler Hubbard: Florida Georgia Line Are Still Very Much Together Despite Exploring Solo Projects
WENN
Tyler has once again denied rumors suggesting he and Brian Kelley quit their band due to the opposing political views, insisting they are a ‘package deal.’
Jan 13, 2021
AceShowbiz – Tyler Hubbard has once again slammed rumours he and Florida Georgia Line bandmate Brian Kelley are splitting up, insisting they are a “package deal.”
Reports of trouble within the group began after Democrat Hubbard unfollowed Republican Brian Kelley for a few days around the U.S. presidential election last year (20), which were furthered as the duo pulled out of an appearance at the Country Music Academy Awards due to a COVID-related health scare.
The two stories combined to prompt fans and critics alike to suggest FGL were done, but both Hubbard and Kelley have denied that – instead revealing they are planning to use 2021 as the year they’ll explore solo projects.See also…
And, in a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, Hubbard insisted he’s still on the best of terms with Kelley – and doesn’t foresee a band break-up anytime soon.
“We’ve stayed in really good communication about it (solo projects) and we both feel a lot of freedom, a lot of creative juices flowing, a lot of inspiration, and so it’s fun,” he said. “We’ve always been a package deal, we’ve always done every single thing together, so it really does feel good to say, ‘BK, go make your solo project and go have fun with it, and I’ll go write songs and see what collaborations happen and we’ll just have our own voice and make our own mark for a little while,’ and then in the meantime, still releasing our fifth album in February, and, you know, continuing the tour.”
“So, you know, we’re still gonna be doing a lot together and playing for the fans and singing the hits, but it’s been fun to venture out and have a little bit of individuality as we go.”You can share this post!

Victoria Beckham Realized Music Wasn't Really Her Passion After Watching Elton John Perform
WENN
The singer-turned-fashion designer talks about her departure from the Spice Girls and explains why she declined to reunite with her all-female bandmates.
Jan 13, 2021
AceShowbiz – Victoria Beckham was inspired to “step away” from the Spice Girls by Sir Elton John.
The mother-of-four shot to fame as a member of the girl group and though she stayed with them throughout their chart career, their 2007 reunion, and 2012 appearance at the London Olympics, she declined to join in with their later plans – including a 2016 reunion, which was axed after Geri Horner fell pregnant, and a 2019 concert tour. And writing a letter to her future self in Britain’s Vogue magazine, Victoria admitted it was seeing her “dear friend” perform that made her realise she’d never be passionate about music.
“Remember years ago, watching your dear friend Elton John on stage in Las Vegas,” she wrote. “He performed Tiny Dancer, as if it were the first time, and you realised this was like oxygen for him. It was a life-changing moment – while singing and dancing was fun for you, it wasn’t your passion.”See also…
“That day, you started your quest to uncover your own dreams. It was time to step away from being a Spice Girl. For the first time, you were venturing out on your own, and it was terrifying. It was scary to close a chapter that defined you.”
After launching her own fashion empire and diversifying into beauty, Victoria hinted she also has other projects in the pipeline and will continue to ignore her critics.
She continued in her letter, “I know you are still reinventing yourself, taking on new challenges, and ignoring the naysayers. You always look beyond the conventional wisdom to pave your own path.”
“First, you found this passion in fashion, and most recently, beauty. What comes next? I’m dying to know.”You can share this post!

Lana Del Rey Features Controversial Mesh Mask in 'Chemtrails Over the Country Club' Music Video
[embedded content]
The visuals is unveiled one day after the ‘Young and Beautiful’ singer receives backlash over her statement as shares the cover art for the upcoming album on Instagram.
Jan 12, 2021
AceShowbiz – Lana Del Rey has treated her fans to a music video for her new song “Chemtrails Over the Country Club” off her upcoming album of the same title. The visuals was unveiled on Monday, January 11, just one day after she teased the cover art for the album on Instagram.
The vintage ’60s-style video features Lana driving her little red sports car to the country club. She is then joined by her friends who occasionally sport her infamous shimmering mesh mask. Things, however, take an unexpected turn when a twister a la “The Wizard of Oz” appears and takes the singer to her red convertible.
Later in the visuals, Lana and her gal pals reunite as they transform into a pack of werewolves who are howling at the moon in the middle of the night.
“I’m on the run with you, my sweet love/ There’s nothing wrong contemplating God/ Under the chemtrails over the country club,” Lana sings. “We’re in our jewels in the swimming pool/ Me and my sister just playin’ it cool/ Under the chemtrails over the country club.”See also…
The singer sparked outrage over comments she made after posting the cover art for her upcoming album that featured her posing with a bunch of female friends who are from different races. The 35-year-old wrote in the now-edited caption, “As it happens when it comes to my amazing friends and this cover yes there are people of colour on this records (sic) picture and that’s all I’ll say about that but thank you.” She added, “In 11 years working I have always been extremely inclusive without even trying to. My best friends are rappers my boyfriends have been rappers.”
In response to the backlash, Lana explained on BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, “Before I even put the album cover up, I knew what people were going to say. So when they actually started saying things, I responded and I just said, ‘I got a lot of issues but inclusivity ain’t one of them.’ It just isn’t. You can’t just make it my problem,” she said.
“My friends, my family, my whatever… They’re not all one way and we’re not the ones storming the Capitol. We voted for Biden. My girlfriends come from all over the world, they have children from all different types of people. And I’m mentioning all this, like, to people who are listening, because people really wanted even more people of color on my album cover. Which you know is, to a point, a photo just is what it is,” she continued.
“I wasn’t being preemptive, I was definitely responding, but… I just feel like if that’s really what people are gonna say, I have an answer for them, which is that if you look closer, you will see people of colour. It’s a black-and-white image, so zoom in, you know. It’s just weird, you know?” she concluded.You can share this post!

Tommy Vext Pleads With Fans to Stop Bullying Bad Wolves Over His Firing
Instagram
The heavy metal group made the announcement that they had parted ways with their frontman after he was accused of domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend, fitness model Whitney Johns.
Jan 12, 2021
AceShowbiz – Singer Tommy Vext has urged fans to quit “bashing” his former bandmates in heavy metal group Bad Wolves following his ousting from the line-up.
The “Zombie” stars announced they had parted ways with Vext on Saturday, January 9, and although they stopped short of revealing the reason behind the split, the vocalist appears to have blamed his exit on domestic violence allegations made by his ex-girlfriend – claims he has vehemently denied.
In a post on his Instagram Stories timeline, Vext insists he has no hard feelings towards his old pals, even though he believes they acted a little too hastily in firing him.
In a lengthy message, he wrote, “Guys please listen: you can support me without bashing my former band mates in @badwolvesofficial.”See also…
“I understand emotions are high and there’s a lot of speculation but just chill. I will make a statement when legal documents are finalized. I have no animosity toward the boys, the media once again ran with rumors and forced my ex bandmates to make an ill timed response.”
“I am grateful for your support & reassurance and it’s actually moved me to tears,” he continued. “But we don’t need to spread negativity to the other guys.”
“We have very different political and spiritual beliefs but they are good human beings & the way I see it is we will have a healthy competition to create awesome music. So everyone wins. I Love John (Boecklin), Doc (Coyle), Chris (Cain) & Kyle (Konkiel). Please Don’t bully my homies (friends).”Tommy Vext pleaded with fans to stop bashing Bad Wolves in the wake of his firing.
Vext’s former girlfriend, fitness model Whitney Johns, was granted a two-year restraining order against the singer following a five-day virtual trial in Los Angeles last month, when she cited four specific instances of domestic violence as the reason for her legal action.You can share this post!
