At a time when uncertainty feels like the only constant, Candace Woodson delivers something deceptively simple—and profoundly necessary: a reminder to say yes. Her song “Say Yes” isn’t built on spectacle. It doesn’t chase trends or try to outshout the noise of the moment. Instead, it leans into something far more powerful—truth. The kind that resonates quietly at first, then lingers, then stays. “Say Yes” is about choice. Not the easy kind, but the kind that asks you to step forward when fear is louder than faith. It’s about opening doors you’re not sure you’re ready to walk through. It’s…
“Few minds can explain both Michael Jackson and the meaning of the universe—Howard Bloom does.” It sounds almost impossible at first. On one side, you have Michael Jackson—arguably the most famous entertainer to ever live, a man whose every movement shifted global culture in real time. On the other, you have the vast, ungraspable expanse of the cosmos—the kind of subject that humbles even the greatest scientific minds. Most people spend their lives trying to understand one or the other. Howard Bloom has spent his life navigating both. This is what makes him singular. Bloom didn’t just observe Michael Jackson’s rise—he understood…
Despina Mirou has built a remarkable reputation for her transformative performances, particularly through her celebrated portrayals of Lucille Ball. Her ability to embody the spirit, timing, and physical comedy of the legendary icon has positioned her as a standout presence in both stand-up comedy and acting across the United States. Her journey into comedy began in 2015, when she performed her very first stand-up routine at the New York Comedy Club, appearing as Lucille Ball. The performance marked a defining moment in her career—it was filmed live and photographed by HBO, making it her debut stand-up appearance in America. Mirou continued to…
AVO Records has officially released “La Noche Resonaba,” the latest single from composer and producer Avohee Avoher, now streaming worldwide. Built for peak-season impact, the track arrives with serious Spring/Summer festival energy and a clear eye on global dancefloors. From the first beat, “La Noche Resonaba” leans into a cinematic, high-voltage sound—layering hypnotic bilingual vocals over driving electronic production. The result is a dark, immersive atmosphere where tension builds, breaks, and explodes into full mainstage release. The track is powered by analog synth textures, tightly structured rhythms, and massive, festival-scale drops. It’s just as comfortable in an underground club as…
There’s a moment, somewhere between Coachella and WrestleMania, between Oxford and Brooklyn, between a Brooklyn library job and a stage in front of 80,000 people, where Mark Crozer will look up and think: How the hell did I get here? He says it with a kind of gentle disbelief, the same way he talks about almost everything – from playing bass in The Jesus and Mary Chain to accidentally soundtracking one of WWE’s most iconic modern characters, to making the most honest record of his life in Homecoming. “I still can’t really believe that’s what I do,” he admits of…
Marmozets have unveiled a new single and video, Cut Back. Building up to the release of their long-awaited third album CO.WAR.DICE. – which is due out on May 22 – the track follows previous comeback singles A Kiss From A Mother, You Want The Truth, New York and Running With The Sun In Your Eyes. Speaking to Kerrang! last year about their time away from music, drummer Josh Macintyre admitted that, “For years, there were moments when we thought we would release an album, and moments where it almost didn’t happen. But we’ve always believed – ‘Push on, just keep…
Authorities in the Bahamas have taken a 59-year-old American man into custody as the search continues for his missing wife, Lynette Hooker, who vanished during a late-night boat trip near Elbow Cay. The man, identified by his attorney as Brian Hooker, was arrested Wednesday by the Royal Bahamas Police Force. His lawyer, Terrel A. Butler, said Hooker “categorically and unequivocally denies any wrongdoing” and has been cooperating with investigators. Hooker initially told police that the couple had gone out Saturday night in a small dinghy when his wife, 55, fell overboard while holding the boat’s keys. According to his account,…
A partial collapse at a parking garage under construction in Philadelphia has left one person dead and two others still missing, as emergency crews continue a difficult and time-sensitive search operation. The incident unfolded around 2:17 p.m. on April 8 at a job site in the Grays Ferry neighborhood near 30th Street and Grays Ferry Avenue. The structure, a seven-story garage being built for the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, suffered a major failure during construction work. According to city officials, the collapse began when a precast concrete roof section gave way while being installed. “After placement, a precast roof segment…
The 90th edition of the Masters Tournament got underway Thursday morning under clear skies at Augusta National Golf Club, beginning with one of golf’s most cherished traditions. Honorary starters Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and Tom Watson — winners of a combined 11 green jackets — stepped onto the first tee to open the year’s first major. The ceremony, a custom dating back to 1963, once again set the tone for the tournament. Between them, the three Hall of Famers boast 35 major championships, with Nicklaus alone accounting for 18 — including a record six Masters titles. Player, 90, got things…
We recently headed to Cineworld for a Secret Screaming, which turned out to be the new movie Undertone. A podcast host (Nina Kiri) covering spooky content moves in to care for her dying mother. When sent recordings of a pregnant couple’s paranormal encounters, she discovers their story parallels hers, each tape pushing her toward madness—the revolutionary, immersive soundscape horror from iconic studio A24. Undertone was one of those movies that I wasn’t really sure about. I had heard a lot about its use of sound to scare the viewer, but could it really be that scary? I’ve seen the taglines…
While panto season may be behind us, the Southend Theatre Scene offered the perfect excuse to jump back into the action with a brand-new production of Robin Hood at the Palace Theatre in Southend. Whilst I am more than familiar with the story of Robin Hood through its various adaptations on screen, I had never experienced it as a stage production. So, I was keen to see how KD Theatre Production Ltd, in association with Harlow Playhouse, would bring the story to life as a panto. Thankfully, I can say they did not disappoint. The show jumps straight into the…
Well that’s it from us for this week. If you haven’t got your tickets yet for our 25 year knees up featuring Chuck Prophet, Steve Wynn and a whole load more americana, you can pick them up from this link – we’d love to see you. In the meantime we leave you dear reader with a song which I only discovered this morning reading Alexis Petridis’ review of the new self-titled album by Cameron Picton’s new project My New Band Believe, out on Rough Trade today – but it referenced a track from the final album by British art-rockers Black…
