Around the Tubes: March 26, 2022

            

I have gotten a plethora of cool press releases have been flooding my inbox recently that you may find interesting.  This post includes blurbs on Only Murders in the Building, City on a Hill, The Hardy Boys, Eraser, James Bay, Ural Thomas And The Pain, Jessia, Mystery Science Theater 3000and Theirs Is the Kingdom.


Check out Hulu’s date announcement video for the upcoming second season of "Only Murders in the Building." The new season returns on Tuesday, June 28th.  Following the shocking death of Arconia Board President Bunny Folger, Charles, Oliver & Mabel race to unmask her killer. However, three (unfortunate) complications ensue - the trio is publicly implicated in Bunny's homicide, they are now the subjects of a competing podcast, and they have to deal with a bunch of New York neighbors who all think they committed murder.



SHOWTIME has announced that the third season of its acclaimed Boston drama series CITY ON A HILL, starring Emmy® nominee Kevin Bacon and Screen Actors Guild® award winner Aldis Hodge, will premiere on Sunday, July 10 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, and the network has released a first-look trailer for the new season. The series also stars Jill Hennessy, Lauren E. Banks and Matthew Del Negro, and joining the cast this season as guest stars are Emmy nominee Corbin Bernsen, Joanne Kelly and Ernie Hudson. Season three consists of eight one-hour episodes.



Check out Hulu’s official trailer and key art for the upcoming second season of "The Hardy Boys," which premieres with all 10 episodes on Wednesday, April 6, 2022.  The second season picks up six months after the events of Season 1, building on the mystery and drama of the inaugural season and welcoming new friends and suspects. In Season 2, when a Bridgeport classmate mysteriously disappears, Frank (Rohan Campbell) and Joe Hardy (Alexander Elliot) drop their new normal routine to get back to detective work. But when they discover the mystical relic they destroyed last year is still in play, it becomes clear their simple missing person case is actually part of something far more sinister. The Hardy boys and their friends must quickly learn who they can and can’t trust as they race against time to unravel the truth, and ultimately realize that no one is safe from their past.


 


We just released the never-before-seen trailer for Eraser: Reborn and wanted to share with you. Get in on the action and unravel the secrets with the explosive trailer here:  https://youtu.be/u2_IiOM0vkY.  A reboot of the 1996 blockbuster, Eraser: Reborn comes to Digital, Blu-ray™ and DVD on June 7, 2022, and will be available for streaming on HBO Max in Fall 2022.  This all-new action-packed film stars Dominic Sherwood (Shadowhunters), Jacky Lai (V-Wars), McKinley Belcher III (Marriage Story) and Eddie Ramos (Animal Kingdom).


- Three-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated and BRIT Award-winning multi-platinum singer, songwriter, producer, and guitarist James Bay returns with a brand-new single entitled “Give Me The Reason” via Republic Records.  Listen to “Give Me The Reason” HERE and watch the official music video HERE.  On the new single and music video Bay said: “I wanted this song to feel huge and emotional. It’s about that moment when you feel like the sun is beginning to set on a relationship, it’s about the fight to stay together. I want it to explode with energy when I play it live. It’s about feeling your heart beat fast and love racing through your veins.


Following their barnstorming performances at this year’s SXSW festival, Ural Thomas And The Pain share the new single “Do You Remember The Times We Had?” from their upcoming album Dancing Dimensions out June 3rd on Bella Union/[PIAS].  On the track, Ural says: “To me this song is about that feeling everyone has sometimes, wishing we were kids again. As we go through life, childhood memories can start to fade away, Do You Remember The Times We Had? reminds us to never ‘grow old’ but also to live with joy in the moment.”  The band have previously shared an entertaining video for Dancing Dimensions’ irresistible title track - watch HERE - and announced a London Jazz Cafe show on Saturday 18th June.


- Multi-JUNO Award nominee and Canadian platinum-certified artist  JESSIA delivers the piano-forward, unfettered truth bomb of a track ‘Next Time’, available everywhere via Artist Driven Records in partnership with Republic Records. The vulnerability in her songwriting shines on ‘Next Time’, and JESSIA’s soft vocals steadily build from whisper to battle cry, with a robust crescendo that embodies crushing heartbreak so succinctly it leaves little for the imagination. There’s an aching familiarity to ‘Next Time’; the type of song that has you quietly reflecting on past relationships in one moment, and singing at the top of your lungs in wounded fury the next.  Listen to ‘Next Time’ HERE.  Watch the Lyric Video HERE
