Everyone has that one song they hope to hear from their favorite band at a live show. Sometimes we get lucky and our favorite track is one of their hits, other times our favorite track isn’t as popular. Perhaps a b-side that rarely gets any love on the stage or a tune from an older album that hasn’t seen a spot in the setlist in years. A festival with a line-up as stacked as When We Were Young, there is potential for a load of surprises. Bands and artists tend to get a little weird as festivals. We crafted a… Read more »

Seeing him tonight is a bad idea right? Olivia Rodrigo has shared her second single “bad idea right?” from her upcoming sophomore album GUTS out September 8th. In all its pop-rock glory, the new track is nothing short of an absolute BANGER. Starting off with a grungy guitar riff, you are immediately transported into the attitude-filled, tongue-in-cheek world that Rodrigo has perfected. It is snotty, clever, and feels like a shit-eating grin of a track. Olivia Rodrigo basically talks the verses, in a smug, self-satisfied fashion. She is doing something she shouldn’t, making a probable mistake, but frankly doesn’t care.… Read more »

Olivia Rodrigo is FINALLY back after what felt like an eternity to announce the release of her upcoming sophomore album, GUTS, due out September 8th. This news comes shortly after the alt-pop star shared that her brand new single “Vampire” will drop as the first taste of the new record on June 30th. We are absolutely going feral over this announcement. Rodrigo totally exploded onto the scene in January of 2021 with her debut single “Drivers License“. Honestly, “exploded” even feels like an understatement. This song took over the world, to say the least. The power-pop ballad broke a string… Read more »
