2019 is off to a fast start. It’s hard to keep up with the ever turning news. In case you missed it major news from The Strokes, Radiohead, and Bob Dylan already have go people excited for what’s to come this year.
Radiohead has released for the first time on all streaming devices A B-Side gem. Ill Wind from Radiohead’s 2016 A Moon Shaped Pool is now available for fans to listen too. Prior to the release Ill Wind could only be found on extended versions of the CD release or on Vinyl.
The Strokes made headlines by announcing their return in what has been proclaimed by the band as a “global comeback.” Their first gig in two years will take place at the Bilbao BBK Live Festival in Bilbao, Spain and a headliner spot this June at The Governors Ball in their home town of New York City. No other dates have been announced yet, but hopefully soon. One can hope that their tour will be accompanied by a new record.
A new Bob Dylan documentary is coming to Netflix this year. Directed by none other than Martin Scorsese, Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story has no release date yet but will showcase Dylan’s 1975-76 Rolling Thunder Revue tour. This is the second documentary the two have worked on together. The other being 2005’s No Direction Home: Bob Dylan. Expect a mix of documentary, live music, and as Netflix describes, “part fever dream.”
