Jon Hamm has a new role: He plays an emotionally unavailable boyfriend in singer Leslie Stevens’ new music video for “Blue Roses.”
The clip, released Friday, features Hamm in a cowboy hat and denim shirt, as he hands Stevens blue roses and she sings the lyrics, “Go ahead and take another little piece of my heart/I’ll give it to you as a fall apart.” The bluesy rock-pop track features the hook, “All I get from you are blue roses.”
The Emmy-winning actor even hijacks Stevens’ microphone during her live performance and replaces it with blue roses in the video, directed by Paige Stark of the rock band Tashaki Miyaki.
“I love a music video, and when it’s for a good song it’s even better” says Hamm, whose other music video credits include Eeels’ “Are We Alright Again,” Aimee Mann’s “Labrador,” The Lonely Island and Rihanna...

Heartless Bastards, the roots-rock band led by Erika Wennerstrom, recently announced their new album: A Beautiful Life is the follow-up to 2015’s Restless Ones and will be released September 10th.
Now based in Austin, Wennerstrom enlisted players like Okkervil River guitarist Lauren Gurgiolo and My Morning Jacket keyboardist Bo Koster for this edition of the rotating Heartless Bastards lineup. The result is a sound that leans more indie-rock than Americana, but is informed by a hefty dose of soul. “How Low,” the album’s first single, is a satisfying summer...

Roger Waters has released a new recording and video for “The Gunner’s Dream.” The song from Pink Floyd’s 1983 album, The Final Cut, tells the story of a dying airman who dreams of a safer, better world, without war.
The black-and-white visual opens on Waters playing the piano and singing alone in his studio. His bandmates — guitarist Dave Kilminster, drummer Joey Waronker, bassist Gus Seyffert, guitarist Jonathan Wilson, pianist and keyboardist Jon Carin, Hammond player Bo Koster and Lucius’ Jesse Wolfe and Holly Laessig — join him from their respective...

Following the postponement of his This Is Not a Drill Tour, Roger Waters and his touring band once again reunited apart for a socially distanced rendition of Pink Floyd’s The Final Cut closer “Two Suns in the Sunset.”
“I had an idea to make an album of all the songs we did as encores on the Us and Them tour. We did ‘Mother’ first. Had to do it remotely because of Covid 19,” Waters said Saturday. “‘Two Suns in the Sunset’ is #2. Hope you like it. I love it.”

As twin sisters, Chandra and Leigh Watson have shared nearly everything, from their hair color to the stages where they’ve sung in close harmony. But despite performing as a duo for more than 20 years, the Watson Twins had never written songs together. “I know that sounds completely insane,” Leigh tells Rolling Stone, “but I think that for both of us growing up as twins, you have to share everything, so our songwriting was always really personal to us.”

It’s been a dozen years since the Watson Twins made their mainstream debut as Jenny Lewis’s pitch-perfect backup singers, filling her solo debut, Rabbit Fur Coat, with gospel harmonies and alt-country charm. This month, they’ll reclaim the spotlight for themselves with Duo, the pair’s sixth album. Unlike the releases before it, Duo focuses equally on the siblings’ vocal chops and songwriting skills, with each song featuring the Watson Twins’ byline. They sing every melody together too, creating a thick, harmonically-dense sound that nods to vocal groups of the Sixties.

Dallas Green is no longer the elephant in the room. Or, perhaps more accurately, City And Colour isn't.
"The Hurry And The Harm," out June 4, is the fourth release for Green under the City And Colour moniker, and the first since his split from Alexisonfire. Green first came to prominence as the singer in the singing/screaming post-hardcore act, and his decision to quit and focus on his increasingly popular acoustic solo work precipitated the group's break-up in 2011. It was an awkward situation made all the more so by the fact that his departure was kept quiet for a year, first from his own bandmates, then from the public.
Green comes clean about his feelings on the whole affair on the break-up song "Of Space And Time," the first track leaked from The Hurry And The Harm, singing, "There's an elephant in the back of the room / and it's standing...
