Preservation Hall Jazz Band have unveiled the release date to their A Tuba to Cuba album. The soundtrack from their documentary of the same name will be released on June 28th via Sub Pop.
In February, the band released the T.G. Herrington and Danny Clinch-directed A Tuba to Cuba documentary, which chronicled the group’s visit to Cuba. It followed band leader Ben Jaffe as he worked to retrace the connection of New Orleans jazz to indigenous Cuban music, which was a dream of his late father, Preservation Hall founder Allan Jaffe.

It’s been a dozen years since Suzanne Santo and Ben Jaffe sat together in the lobby of a West Hollywood pot dispensary, acoustic guitars in hand, strumming the song that would eventually become the closer for every HoneyHoney show.
“Those were some of our first gigs, playing the weed shops in L.A.,” Jaffe remembers. “They were certainly the first gigs that paid us. We’d play the waiting area for an hour and pick up a few hundred bucks, which was a jackpot back then.”

Select box set reviews from The Associated Press:
Johnny Cash, "The Complete Columbia Album Collection" (Columbia/Legacy)
If you're under 40, you likely see Johnny Cash two ways – as the nearly mythological Sun Records proto-rocker and as the wizened old man staring down God in his American Recordings period in the years before his 2003 death.
Between those two important periods lay decades of songs, personalities and re-inventions many folks aren't familiar with. The massive new box set, "The Complete Columbia Album Collection," will help fill in those gaps for anyone interested in Cash beyond the name-checking cachet he brings to your iPod.
A staggering amount of music is gathered here in 63 discs representing a quarter century of output from an American popular culture icon whose career was far more Technicolor than his Man in Black nickname suggests. And the average music fan yet to turn grey has no idea what that...

Robert Pattinson has bought Kristen Stewart an unexpected gift. Offering details on how the two "Twilight Saga" stars enjoyed last Saturday, March 5, Hollywood Life reported that the British hunk and his rumored girlfriend went first on a private shopping at Michael Kors boutique in Vancouver.

Lenny Kravitz, Mos Def and actor Tim Robbins have teamed up to record a new benefit single to raise cash for the victims of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. The trio are part of the Gulf Aid All-Stars, who have recorded the track "Ain't My Fault" to boost the funds of charity GulfAid.org.
The tune will be available as a download from June 15 and all proceeds will benefit fishermen and seafood restaurant workers, whose livelihoods have been put on hold because of the oil disaster.

USA Today further reported that rapper Mos Def was inspired to write words for a potential song after watching oil executives blame each other for the spill. Meanwhile, creative director Ben Jaffe later toyed with the idea of...
