Cole Swindell delivers more ‘real life moments’ with ‘Girl Dad’

June 19, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Cole Swindell’s “Girl Dad” is out now, continuing the story he started with 2015’s “You Should Be Here.”

While his #1 dealt with losing his dad in 2013, the new song carries the story forward, imagining what he’d say to his father after getting married in 2024 and welcoming his daughter in 2025.

“I’ve spent a lot of my life chasing dreams, milestones, and moments I thought would define me,” Cole wrote on social media. “Then I became a father. Getting to share these real life moments with you through my music truly means the world to me and my family. I appreciate so many of you already sharing what this song means to you from the clips you’ve heard.”

The “Girl Dad” music video dropped simultaneously, picking up where the “You Should Be Here” clip left off. Cole gave his fan club, The Down Home Crew, an exclusive preview during CMA Fest.

Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo hit big UK chart milestones

June 19, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo have taken over the music charts across the pond.

Olivia’s new album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, has topped the U.K.’s album chart with first-week sales of just under 103,000 units. That’s a lot more than either one of her previous albums sold in its first week: SOUR moved 51,000 units, while GUTS did 60,000. In fact, Olivia now has the biggest first-week sales for any album by a non-British artist in the U.K. so far this year.

Plus, at age 23, she’s the youngest international artist to sell over 100,000 albums in an opening week since Britney Spears did it in 2024 with Greatest Hits: My Prerogative.

Olivia says in a statement to Official Charts, “Thank you so much for this Number 1 album award! It means so much to me. I wrote so many of these songs in the U.K., so it makes it extra special. Thank you all for listening, I appreciate it so much.”

Meanwhile, Taylor’s new Toy Story 5 song “I Knew It, I Knew You” is #1 for a second week on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart. It sold 71,000 units in the past week, giving it the biggest sales week for any single so far this year. The previous record was held by Harry Styles, whose song “Aperture” sold 70,000 units in its first week.

But Olivia is right behind Taylor; three songs from her new album sit at #2, #3 and #5 on the Singles Chart: “stupid song,” “the cure” and “drop dead,” respectively.

June 19, 2026 by WDNY Radio

The Band’s debut album, Music From Big Pink, has gotten an audio upgrade.

The album, which features the band’s iconic Robbie Robertson-penned tune “The Weight,” has just been reissued as part of UMe’s Vinylphyle audiophile series.

The release, cut from the original 1968 album master, has been pressed on 180-gram black vinyl and includes new liner notes by music writer Rick Florino.

The pressing, limited to just 3,000 copies, is available now.

Music From Big Pink, originally released July 1, 1968, was recorded following The Band’s stint backing Bob Dylan on his 1966 tour, when they were known as the Hawks. The album’s title references the pink house in West Saugerties, New York, where Band members Rick Danko, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson lived, and the group worked on the record. The cover artwork is a painting by Dylan.

Mgk has announced a livestream for his upcoming show in Indianapolis on Saturday.

You can tune in to watch Saturday at 9 p.m. ET via mgk’s YouTube and Twitch channels, as well as the streaming platform Veeps.

“Streaming live in concert Saturday night for anybody who couldn’t see the tour in person,” mgk writes in an Instagram post.

He adds that the stream is also “for my Detroiters that only saw half a show,” referencing his recent performance in the Detroit area that was cut short due to weather.

Katy Perry crowd-surfs inside giant water bottle, declines exes’ calls at first Out of Office tour show

June 19, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Katy Perry has created an entirely new show, complete with new props, for her festival run this summer, which she’s dubbed the Out of Office Tour.

During her performance of “I Kissed a Girl” in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, on Thursday — her first show of the tour — Katy climbed into a giant water bottle labeled “Katyade” and went crowd-surfing, to the delight of fans. She also gave her new single “Watch It Burn” its live debut, ahead of its release on June 25.

While singing “Never Really Over,” she stood next to an enormous iPhone and didn’t answer calls from, among others, the initials “JM,” “RB” and “OB.” Those seemingly stood for her ex-boyfriend John Mayer, her ex-husband Russell Brand and her ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom.

But when the caller displayed as “JPJT” — which stands for Justin Pierre James Trudeau, Katy’s boyfriend, who she calls “the love of my life” — she hit “accept.”

According to MundoAmerica.com, another part of the show featured Katy getting a fake phone call from her daughter during the song “All the Love.”

Katy’s costumes included a long white shirt sporting the words “I am not a robot” with a sequined American flag tie and Canadian flag cufflinks, and a two-piece top and skirt that was a near-replica of an outfit she wore in 2009.

Her setlist was also different from her 2025 Lifetimes Tour, which is coming to screens this summer as a live concert film. In addition to all her biggest hits — from “Roar” and “Firework” to “Teenage Dream” — the new setlist included “Harleys in Hawaii,” “Thinking of You,” “Never Really Over” and a cover of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs song “Heads Will Roll.”

Grammy-nominated producer Tay Keith dies at 29

June 19, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Grammy-nominated producer Tay Keith has died, according to the Metro Nashville Police Department.

Police said officers found him dead Thursday in his Nashville apartment on Martin Street while conducting a welfare check. Authorities are awaiting autopsy results, but said no foul play is suspected. He was 29.

Born Brytavious Lakeith Chambers, Tay Keith was raised in South Memphis, Tennessee. He graduated from Middle Tennessee State University with a Bachelor of Science degree and went on to build an extensive production catalog.

Among his most popular productions are BlocBoy JB’s “Look Alive” featuring Drake, Drake’s “Nonstop” and “Pound Town 2” with Sexyy Red featuring Nicki Minaj. He co-produced Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode” — which peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100 and earned a 2019 Grammy nomination for best rap song. He earned his second best rap song Grammy nomination in 2024, for 21 Savage and Drake’s “Rich Flex.”

Keith also produced Beyoncé’s “Before I Let Go,” a bonus track off her Homecoming: The Live album, which has become a staple at summer barbecues, weddings and family reunions.

The Rolling Stones’ Keith Richards doesn’t think another tour is possible

June 19, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Mick Jagger said during a recent appearance on the BBC Radio 2’s Tracks of My Years that he “can’t wait” to go back out on tour with The Rolling Stones again, but it seems Keith Richards isn’t so certain.

While doing initial press for the band’s upcoming album, Foreign Tongues, Richards shot down the idea of a tour in 2026, and now he seems to be reconsidering the possibility altogether.

“I don’t know if tours are possible,” the 82-year-old rocker tells Uncut magazine in a new interview. “It’s the traveling that takes it out of you.”

But that doesn’t mean the band won’t be playing live again.

“But I do see the possibility of us doing [a] residency somewhere,” he adds. “Wherever it is, London, New York, Paris, anywhere. I’ll play Rome! But I don’t see why they shouldn’t be able to throw some shows together in a new format.”

After more than 60 years in the music biz, Richards says he still finds it exciting to make music with the band.

“Yeah, it’ll be exciting until something inside me says, ‘That’s that,’” he says. “I love working with the guys. I mean, what am I gonna do?” He adds, “It’s necessary for me – at gunpoint, if needs be – to keep a band together. ‘You will play drums!’ I do my bit, but it’s an incredible gift from everybody else. I didn’t expect this in return.”

He notes, “It’s still a bit mind boggling, even at this age.”

The Rolling Stones’ Foreign Tongues will be released July 10.
