2018! What a time to be alive for new music.
Three records we’re mega looking forward to…

Vampire Weekend have announced two intimate shows, taking place June 16 and 17 at Ojai, California’s Libbey Bowl. “Probably worth catching both ,” the band teased in an Instagram post. Along with the show announcement, they shared a new logo (which is also now their Facebook profile picture).

Gorillaz: “The Now Now”
Long running English virtual band Gorillaz have released a teaser of their new record on thenownow.tv with a retro visual and the June 29 release date. The band will also premier a new track May 31st.
The Now Now follows last year’s Humanz, which arrived stacked with guest appearances.
Jeff Goldblum: Debut Release
The 65-year-old actor will release his debut album later this year and has signed with Universal’s Decca Records.
“As far as I can tell, everyone loves Jeff Goldblum,” Decca director of A&R Tom Lewis said in a statement announcing the label’s newest act. “He’s a fantastic jazz pianist, a great band leader and just about the loveliest man in the world. His love of jazz is infectious and whenever he plays he makes you feel very happy. If we can take Jeff’s music into people’s homes then we will be helping, in our own small way, to make the world a happier place.”
