Kim Gordon stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live to perform her recent single, “Bye Bye.” Appearing with a live band, Gordon tore through the fuzzed out, synth-laden track with moody fervor.
“Bye Bye” comes off the former Sonic Youth musician’s second solo LP, The Collective, which dropped in March. The album was produced by Justin Raisen with help from Anthony Paul Lopez, and follows Gordon’s 2019 debut solo LP, No Home Record, which featured the songs “Murdered Out,” “AirBnB,” and “Don’t Play It.”

Kim Gordon is at the height of her powers right now, making music that’s both noisy and liberating, and unremittingly challenging any expectations that listeners still have for her. That sentence could have been written at various points in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, when she was pushing boundaries as a founding member of Sonic Youth — but it feels especially true right here in the 2020s, after the release this spring of her sol0 tour-de-force The Collective. On March 23, Gordon played the Knockdown Center in Queens, New York, and...

As coronavirus cases continue to decline across the U.S. and President Joe Biden vows to disperse 200 million more Covid-19 vaccine doses by his 100th day in office, Hollywood is inching closer to reopening.
Entertainment is among the industries most crippled by the pandemic. Nationwide lockdowns forced the shutdowns of television and film productions, delayed movie premieres, shifted release strategies and closed movie theaters.
California is set to fully reopen its economy on June 15 if vaccinations remain widely available and hospitalizations continue to stabilize. It will relinquish the four-tiered, color-coded system that has guided the state’s reopening process during the pandemic.
Meanwhile, California allows indoor concerts, theater performances and other gatherings as of April 15. Attendees have to either show a negative Covid-19 test result or proof of full vaccination. Three counties in northern California can hold concerts and other indoor events at 75% of capacity.

Dev Hynes, A.K.A. Blood Orange, released his latest mixtape Angel’s Pulse earlier this month. He’s unveiled the self-directed music video for mixtape track “Benzo,” featuring him and his cohort dressed as French aristocracy. After arriving late at the court, Hynes performs the song in front of the gathered lords and ladies, mixing live cello performance with the more electronic backing track. The entire video exists on this fine line between the traditional and technological: nNeon signs accent the otherwise antique-adorned room where Hynes plays.

Lykke Li has tapped Skrillex and Ty Dolla $ign to remix her ode to late-night longing, “Two Nights,” which will appear on her forthcoming Ep, Still Sad Still Sexy, out July 26th via RCA Records.

The new remix finds Skrillex putting his signature spin on the track, beefing up the percussion and filling in that space with synths...

The English balladeer Sampha performed a quietly thrilling version of his new song “Treasure” on The Late Late Show on Thursday.
The singer brought along a dream-team of backing musicians, including the pianist Robert Glasper, saxophone player Kamasi Washington, cellist Kelsey Lu and singer SerpentWithFeet, all of whom are acclaimed artists in their own right. The resulting rendition of “Treasure” was whispery and yearning, like the best P.M. Dawn ballads. Sampha sang with soft, quavery intensity, and his backing vocalists emitted long, wordless sighs behind him. Washington stayed silent...
