Juana Molina is as strange and special as her music. The Argentine singer-songwriter speaks in metaphors and concepts, while her experimental folk/pop music reverberates eerie layers of repetitive synths, sounds, and vocals. Molina’s journey toward creating music is its own story. The influence of her parents — tango singer Horacio Molina and…
Electro-pop singer Børns, born Garrett Borns, is hard to pin down as an artist. Several years ago, the 26-year-old Michigan native went from the tundra of the Midwest to the (mostly) sunny skies of Los Angeles, where he lived in a treehouse and stole Taylor Swift’s mom’s heart along the way via singles such as “Electric Love” and “10,000 Emerald Pools.”

It’s been three months since the rap game lost Jahseh “XXXTentacion” Onfroy to senseless gun violence. His mother Cleo, sister Arianna, famous friends, and an abundance of fans spent the summer mourning the Lauderhill native at various locations, including the place of his murder in Deerfield Beach…
Sammy Hagar can tell you a thing or two about money. And he should know — he has lots of it. His penchant for excess is legendary. He throws himself epic birthday bashes that last for days, sometimes weeks. He owns homes in California, Hawaii, and Mexico, replete with a garage full of bad-ass cars…

For an outsider, Steven A. Clark has a clear perspective of Miami. Born in Arkansas, he caught the music bug during his formative years growing up in North Carolina. But even as a burgeoning artist, he was looking for a way out of the slow life of the South. “North Carolina didn’t have enough going on for me at the time,” Clark says.
Miami rap shows have always had a reputation for being shitty. They’re never complete without underage kids moshing in circles, someone’s girlfriend who doesn’t know the artist but tagged along for the hell of it, and every kind of drug you can imagine being passed around in the pit. A $uicideboy$ show is no different…
There aren’t too many crooners in modern rock like Scott Yoder.

When the garage-rock political revolutionaries of MC5 recorded their live album Kick Out the Jams at Detroit’s Grande Ballroom in 1968, it became an instant classic. But guitarist Wayne Kramer still has an uneasy feeling about that concert. “It was a monumental night, but the pressure was too much…
K.D. Lang is one of the most resounding forces in music. The androgynous Canadian singer with a tuft of dark hair, an angelic voice, and sensual, butch energy ushered in a new era of acceptance for folks who don’t fit into traditional gender norms. Her gift for divine vocals was realized…

It’s so easy to mock farewell tours. Classic-rock legends embark upon them every few years when alimony or back taxes call them to the road one last time — until the next time. But eventually, every artist has a tour that ends up being a farewell. Tom Petty’s came last year, Prince’s the year before…
Charlie Puth talks about his songwriting process and the James Taylor duet he dedicated to Parkland students at the March for Our Lives.
