March 10, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Kenny Chesney will be given the first-ever Ocean Legacy Award April 12 when he closes out the Tortuga Music Festival.

This will be Kenny’s sixth time headlining the Fort Lauderdale gathering, which was founded to help raise awareness about ocean conservation and coastal environmental issues.

“To me, when people can come together to learn about the ocean, how to treat it and have a great time with their friends, that’s a total win,” Kenny says. “Even though we’re not touring this year, I do love playing on that beach, seeing all those boats in the water and fans having the best time on that beach.”

“To be given an award for doing what I love somewhere that brings every bit of it together almost feels wrong, but I’m honored if I could be part of bringing how we treat the ocean into focus,” he adds.

Tortuga will be Kenny’s only 2026 concert outside of his June 19-July 11 residency at Sphere Las Vegas.

He headlined the first Tortuga Music Festival in 2013. Since then, the shows on South Lauderdale Beach have raised more than $6 million for ocean conservation.

“Shane was one of my all-time favorite writers,” he wrote. “The passion and deep intensity of his music and lyrics is unmatched by all but the very best in the rock and roll canon.”

A never-before-seen George Michael concert film is set to hit the big screen.

The film, George Michael: The Faith Tour, features footage from Michael’s two-night stand at Paris’ Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy in 1988 during his first-ever solo tour. The long lost film has now been restored and remastered and will be released in theaters later this year.

It will open with Mary McCartney’s short film, Finding Faith, which features a previously unheard interview with Michael, previously unseen photos from photographer Herb Ritts and behind-the-scenes footage of the music video for “Faith.”

In addition to the concert film, a new live album, The Faith Tour, will be released this year, featuring 18 previously unreleased recordings of songs from Michael’s solo and Wham! catalogs.

Jack White clarifies comments regarding his & Taylor Swift’s songwriting styles

March 10, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Jack White has shared a statement clarifying his comments comparing his songwriting style to Taylor Swift’s.

The “Seven Nation Army” rocker brought up the pop superstar in an interview with The Guardian about his new book, Collected Lyrics and Selected Writings Volume 1. He was asked if any of his songs are “entirely autobiographical.”

“Not too much,” White replied. “Now it’s become very popular in the Taylor Swift way of pop singers writing about all of their publicly aired break-ups, which I don’t find interesting at all. I think it’s a little bit boring for me to write about myself.”

According to Rolling Stone, White has since shared and deleted an Instagram post stating, “I didn’t say that I think Taylor Swift’s music was ‘boring’ or whatever click bait the net is trying to scrape together.”

“What I was trying to say in an interview I did about poetry and lyric writing, was that I don’t find it interesting at all for ME to write about MYSELF in my own lyric writing and poetry because I think that it could be repetitive for ME to always write about and It could be uninteresting for people who listen to my music to delve into, and that imaginary characters are more attractive to me as a writer,” White wrote.

“Because I say I have a way of doing things doesn’t mean that I think that EVERYONE should do it the same way,” White added while mentioning Swift’s “tremendous success.” “They should do what works for them, And they do, and it is obviously appealing to many people, and I’m glad to hear that.”
