Grateful Dead are taking it back to their early career with their latest live release.

Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco, CA (7/3/66) will be released on July 3, on the 60th anniversary of the concert, which took place seven months after the band changed their name from the Warlocks. The performance was part of legendary promoter Bill Graham’s Independence Ball, with the band at the time made up of Jerry Garcia, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh, Ron “Pigpen” McKernan and Bob Weir.

The concert features some of the earliest known recordings of songs like “Tastebud,” “You Don’t Have To Ask” and “Cardboard Cowboy,” which the band would stop playing by the end of that summer. It also includes “Cold Rain and Snow,” which would go on to be a Dead staple.

The performance of “Cold Rain and Snow” is available now via digital outlets.

Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco, CA (7/3/66), which was previously available in 2015 as part of the 50th anniversary boxed set 30 Trips Around the Sun, will be released digitally and as a two-CD set. It will also be released as a three-LP set, its first time ever on vinyl, limited to 6,600 copies. The vinyl release is available exclusively at Dead.net.

US local ambassador Charli XCX stars in ad for YSL Beauty

May 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Charli XCX has been wearing YSL Beauty products for her most recent appearances, and now we know why: She’s the brand’s new U.S. local ambassador.

To go along with her new role, she’s starring in a new ad for the brand that features its new product, Skin Affair Soft Glow Cushion Foundation. The ad’s set to her latest song, “Rock Music,” and shows Charli getting ready in a dressing room. She applies lipstick before heading to a green room, showing off what’s described as a “modernized smoky eye” along with the foundation, lip color and other products.

“It’s been really special to collaborate and evolve how I express myself through beauty with YSL Beauty in the past months. Hope you enjoy what we’re making,” Charli says in a statement.

She tells NYLON, “I’m not that technical with it, which is why I like YSL Beauty. It’s easy and chill for me to use. I like to keep it effortless and natural.” She also reveals that her favorite makeup hack is brushing and sometimes putting hairspray on her eyebrows, which she says is “probably terrible for you.”

Meanwhile, Madonna seems to be taking issue with a line in “Rock Music,” in which Charli sings, “I think the dance floor is dead (It’s so dead)/ So now we’re making rock music.” Madonna posted a carousel of photos on Instagram Wednesday of herself all glammed up, with the caption, “If your Dance floor feels dead Maybe you’re playing the wrong music.”

One fan commented, “OH THE CHARLI SHADE.”

Money moves continue for Cardi B, who has just been announced as the 2026 global brand ambassador for FASHIONPHILE, the ultraluxury accessories and bags resale brand.

She appears in its Get Your Bag campaign, which highlights the “long-term value” and demand for “pre-loved luxury” items via its shop-and-sell model. Cardi is curating a special collection featuring pieces from Hermès, Chanel, Goyard and other high-end brands.

“I love a good bag, but I love a smart buy too. I love Fashionphile because they really have it all. The rare pieces, the classics, and everything’s authentic,” Cardi said in a press release. “This partnership made sense because we both care about quality, style, and getting to the bag!”

“At FASHIONPHILE, we’ve always believed that ultra-luxury is an investment, not just a purchase,” added Sarah Davis, FASHIONPHILE founder and president. “Cardi embodies that mindset in a way that’s both aspirational and real. She understands the value behind these pieces and brings a level of visibility and energy that expands how people think about resale.”

Cardi’s curated FASHIONPHILE collection is available exclusively on FASHIONPHILE.com.

Carly Pearce is headed for musical summer camp in a matter of days, as she and Max McNown serve as guest artists for Grammy Camp in Nashville.

For the program’s 22nd year, 208 high school students from 163 cities and 35 states will get to chase their dreams.

The Nashville edition will take place May 31 to June 6 at the Mike Curb College of Entertainment & Music Business that’s part of Belmont University.

Additional camps are set for Miami, New York and Los Angeles later this summer, with Richard Marx, Frankie Grande and more on board.

Jelly Roll’s also one of the artists who’s helping out Grammy Camp with scholarship and program support.

‘Burning Down the House’: David Byrne performs Talking Heads classic with Stephen Colbert on ‘The Late Show’

May 20, 2026 by WDNY Radio

As Stephen Colbert gets ready to sign off The Late Show, he enlisted Talking Heads frontman David Byrne to help him with his sendoff.

Byrne appeared on Colbert’s Tuesday night show for a special performance of the Talking Heads classic “Burning Down the House.” Midway through the song, Byrne, dressed all in blue, was joined by musicians and dancers all dressed in similar blue outfits, while screens in the background projected a raging fire.

The song ended with Colbert coming out in the same blue outfit, dancing along with the performers.

Colbert is in his final week of The Late Show, with Bruce Springsteen set to perform on Wednesday. Colbert will sign off The Late Show on Thursday; no guests for the finale have been revealed.

CBS announced in July 2025 that it was canceling The Late Show, noting the decision to end the late-night talker was a financial one. David Letterman launched The Late Show in 1993, and Colbert took over when Letterman left in 2015.
