Paramore Is a Free Agent, as Band Wipes Online Presence Clean After Completing Atlantic Contract

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Paramore is a free agent. That, and not a band breakup, is the reason most of the group’s online presence has been suddenly wiped clean, sources tell Variety. The band’s longtime website, paramore.net, now leads to a “404 Not Found” message, which alarmed many fans of the group.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Everyone feels it: It can feel like a chore getting to a show. We all know the routine: dealing with the online ticket queues for bigger concerts, navigating the extra fees at checkout for shows large and small, and then, once you’ve experienced that thrill of victory, remembering that you will, in fact, have to leave the house.

Taylor Swift Breaks Elvis Presley’s Record as Solo Artist With Most Weeks at No. 1 on Album Chart, as ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ Reigns Again

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Taylor Swift has broken Elvis Presley‘s longstanding record for the most weeks spent atop the Billboard 200 album chart by a solo artist. She set a new mark of 68 total weeks, as “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” landed on top of the chart for a fifth time in the final full tracking week of 2023. Although Swift set a new record for an individual, the ultimate high-water mark among all artists is still held by the Beatles, whose albums have spent 132 weeks on top of the Billboard 200.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Mariah Carey already held the record for the most weeks spent at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, but she has put it even further out of anyone else’s grasp by claiming a 93rd week on top, thanks to “All I Want for Christmas” continuing its annual reign again this week. The song is No.

Kanye West Apologizes to the Jewish Community — in Hebrew — in Curiously Generic Message

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic With his new album less than three weeks away from release, Kanye West has taken to Instagram to post a blanket apology to the Jewish community for unspecified past actions… in Hebrew. The boilerplate nature of the message, translated into English, led many fans and detractors alike to wonder whether the message was really written by West or a business associate — coming so shortly after the superstar was captured live, on camera, sounding the opposite of penitent.

As Tributes Go By: Tammy Faye Starlite on Paying Homage to Marianne Faithfull, on Record and in a One-Woman Show

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Tammy Faye Starlite knows few boundaries in her love for Marianne Faithfull, and the New York-based singer and performance artist is expressing it in two ways this season. For starters, she’s one of 25 performers who participated in a compilation album that came out earlier this month, “The Faithful: A Tribute to Marianne Faithfull,” along with other fellow fans ranging from Shirley Manson to Iggy Pop — a record earmarked to have proceeds go toward paying for Faithfull’s medical bills as she deals with long COVID.

Don’t Any 21st Century Christmas Records Get Any Love? Yes: ASCAP Has Kelly Clarkson Topping Its ‘New Classics’ List

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic There’s a secret to having a Christmas record that is successful in the 21st century: Put it out before 1970. That’s clear from just looking at the top 10 songs each December, and knowing that Brenda Lee‘s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the first two weeks of this month.

Noah Kahan on Becoming One of 2023’s Biggest Music Breakouts: How ‘Stick Season’ Made America Fall in Love With Seasonal Affective Disorder

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Noah Kahan is Zooming to us right from the heart of Vermont’s stick season, where things are looking cloudy with a chance of multi-platinum. Now, if you happen to know what that “seasonal” reference actually is, you are probably (a) an 80-year-old New Englander who grew up with that term as a euphemism for the dog days of late fall, or (b) one of the millions of people that have taken to the music of Kahan, who spent 2023 becoming a nearly stealth superstar.

Gracie Abrams Celebrates Best New Artist Grammy Nom by Working on Next Album, Which Is ‘1 Million Percent Influenced’ by Crowd Response on Eras Tour

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic What a funny way of saying hello — by saying “Good Riddance.” But as Gracie Abrams happened to be saying goodbye to certain things in her life in the album of that name, she was also introducing herself to much of the general public. Although the now-24-year-old singer-songwriter had released EPs on Interscope going back to 2021 and singles as far back as 2019, “Good Riddance” marked her first full-length album, and the first release where she really found her own voice, with some help from producer/co-writer Aaron Dessner.

‘Immediate Family’ Review: Studio Musicians Who Defined the L.A. Rock Sound of the ’70s Reclaim Their Inner-Sleeve Glory

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Director Danny Tedesco previously scored a hit among music fans with his 2008 film “The Wrecking Crew,” a documentary about the battalion of 1960s studio musicians whose names were little known even among the cognoscenti, until these unknown soldiers started to quietly get their due decades later. Although it took another 15 years after that film to come to fruition, Tedesco had an easy go-to for an unofficial sequel.

Darlene Love Sings ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’ for David Letterman for First Time in Nine Years, and the World Is Set Aright

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Darlene Love‘s annual television performance of “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” was essentially orphaned after “Late Show With David Letterman” went off the air in 2015, putting an end to the 28-year streak that had the music legend singing her signature holiday song with Paul Shaffer‘s band on Letterman’s last original show before Christmas each December. But they all reunited — not over the air, but on YouTube — for a resumption of the tradition, nine years after the last time this particular caroling took place on CBS. Watch the video, below.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Shares His Love of the Manhattan Transfer, After Breaking Hip on His Way to Salute Group at Final Show

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Not even the pain of recovering from surgery for a broken hip could keep Kareem Abdul-Jabbar from expressing his love for the Manhattan Transfer. Although he wasn’t able to pay tribute to the group during their final concert Friday in downtown Los Angeles, as he was intending to when the injury occurred, he came through on that mission on Sunday night, via a statement of appreciation he shared from his hospital bed. It was previously reported only that Abdul-Jabbar broke his hip at “a concert.” What not even fans of the Transfer knew, as they gathered at Walt Disney Concert Hall Friday, was that the Lakers legend had been on the premises and suffered an injury somewhere between parking and making it backstage.

The Manhattan Transfer Calls It a Night With a Final Show at Disney Hall: There’s ‘Grieving,’ but ‘We Think We’re Going Out on Top’

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Introducing the Manhattan Transfer’s final show at Walt Disney Concert Hall, writer Bruce Vilanch emphasized the multi-genre status the vocal ensemble built up and maintained over a 50-year-plus career that, from all indications, really was coming to a close Friday night. “I’m thrilled to be here for the final concert of the greatest pop-rock-jazz-soul-R&B-scat-vocalese-Brazilian group in the history of America,” Vilanch said. In keeping with that multi-hyphenate spirit, the group’s apparent swan song in downtown Los Angeles’ toniest venue was a happy-sad-ebullient-misty-eyed affair.

How Does a Mom Get Slapped With a $250,000 Judgment Over $380 of Homemade Luke Combs Merch? Experts Cite ‘Cottage Industry’ of Mass Counterfeit Suits in Illinois

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Credit country superstar Luke Combs for being a lot faster to get out ahead of a potential public-relations crisis than your average celebrity — to the point that he’s cleaning up messes before he’s had the chance to wipe the sleep out of his eyes. Combs woke up early Wednesday morning learning of a TV news interview with a weeping woman in Florida, Nicol Harness, who’d been slapped with a $250,000 judgment by a federal court in Illinois, along with having thousands of dollars seized from her frozen Amazon seller’s account, because she had sold $380 of unauthorized Combs merch on the website.
