I have gotten a plethora of cool press releases flooding my inbox recently that you may find interesting. This post includes blurbs
- Hulu has the trailer for the highly anticipated the original UK series "Rivals."
- Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band offers the most in-depth look ever at the creation of the band’s legendary live performances, including footage of rehearsals, backstage moments, rare archival clips and personal reflections from Springsteen himself. Road Diary premieres on Hulu and Disney+ on October 25.
- Check out the trailer for "Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara," premiering on Hulu on October 18th. TRAILER: HERE. Tegan and Sara ascended to global fame as one of the most influential queer indie rock bands of their generation. They worked hard to cultivate an inclusive and passionate fanbase around the world. Listeners were drawn to the duo's beautifully confessional lyrics, but there was more than just the music. Fans found within the community the only safe space to come out and be queer during a time when few bands would declare allyship, let alone celebrate their own queer identity. But a bad actor took advantage of the community's trust and comfort. Tegan and Sara's world turned upside down when Tegan's personal files were hacked in 2011, revealing the dark side of fame and fandom. This is a sprawling yet intimate story of how Tegan's identity was stolen and weaponized in a complex catfish scheme to ensnare members of this community. The film is an examination of the severe ripple effect of mistrust, anxiety, and self-doubt that resulted from Fegan's (Fake Tegan) actions.

Co-written by Madison, the track laces a breezy beat with warm guitar. She flaunts her distinct and dynamic range over buoyant production. Meanwhile, her vocals take flight on the chorus, “I know it’s lonely in the grey. Don’t need to explain or hide all your pain. There’s nothing wrong with living in the grey.” On the track, Bailey shares: “‘The Grey’ is about that feeling of not fitting into certain boxes or connecting with labels placed upon you by pressures of society: the message being to embrace yourself in that in-between place. It’s the perfect introduction to what I hope most of my music and message will be. It’s very honest and straight-up.” WATCH THE VISUALIZER HERE

Kicking off with lead single “San Quentin (Live from Nashville),” Nickelback: Live From Nashville will feature electrifying live recordings from the band’s legendary, sold-out show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on their 2023 Get Rollin’ Tour, which was hailed as a “fiery, raucous, unapologetic and rock-driven” set by The Tennessean.

- Returning to the U.K. from their “Tour Of Earth,” where the record breaking British band performed to sold-out arenas and amphitheaters across North America, today Glass Animals share the otherworldly official video for “Show Pony”—watch HERE. Lifted from their critically acclaimed, fourth studio album I Love You So F***ing Much—their most introspective record to date—the video is a sci-fi tale of love, friendship, and heartbreak, which thematically sits at the heart of I Love You So F***ing Much. Directed by Eoin Glaister, “Show Pony” is a western-inspired tale of an unlikely friendship: where alien meets cow. On the video, Glaister says, “Dave had a personal story he wanted to play out through aliens. I ran with this and added a cow. Naive really, given how hard they are to direct. We shot this in Mexico, which was an incredible experience. Locations were stunning, crew were exceptional, cast ideal, and the constant quesadillas spot on.”
