An archival Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers album and box set featuring highlights from the 20-show residency the band played at San Francisco’s famed Fillmore venue in 1997 will be released on November 25.

Put together by Tom Petty‘s estate in collaboration with Heartbreakers guitarist Mike Campbell, Live at the Fillmore (1997) will be available in multiple formats and configurations, including a four-CD package, a six-LP vinyl collection, a two-CD set and a three-LP release.

The four-CD and six-LP versions will feature 58 tracks, including 35 cover tunes. Both packages will come with a booklet featuring rare photos, three custom guitar picks, a replica laminate pass and an embroidered patch.

Live at the Fillmore (1997) features performances recorded during the final six shows of the residency. The band changed the set list every night; in addition to playing plenty of classic Petty & the Heartbreakers originals, they performed renditions of songs by The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, The Kinks, The Everly Brothers, Chuck Berry and more.

Petty and company also welcomed some special guests during the residency, including Roger McGuinn, of The Byrds, and blues legend John Lee Hooker.

“Playing the Fillmore in 1997 for a month was one of my favorite experiences as a musician in my whole life,” Campbell says. “The band was on fire and we changed the set list every night. The room and the crowd was spiritual … AND … we got to play with some amazing guests. I will always remember those nights with joy and inspiration.”

A version of “Listen to Her Heart” has been released as an advance digital track from Live at the Fillmore and a companion music video has been posted on Petty’s official YouTube channel.

You can preorder Live at the Fillmore now.

The 1975 has premiered a new song called “All I Need to Hear,” a track off the band’s upcoming album, Being Funny in a Foreign Language.

“What I’ve struggled is, like, this song, what does it say?” frontman Matty Healy tells Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1. “It’s, like, I don’t need music in my ears, I don’t need the crowds and the cheers. Just tell me you love me. That’s all that I need to hear.”

You can listen to “All I Need to Hear” now via digital outlets and watch its accompanying video streaming now on YouTube.

Being Funny in a Foreign Language, the follow-up to 2020’s Notes on a Conditional Form, arrives October 14. It also includes the previously released songs “Part of the Band,” “Happiness” and “I’m in Love with You.”

The 1975 will launch a U.S. tour in November.

Cardi B and Offset celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary Monday night, and the “I Like It Like That” rapper serenaded her husband with a Beyoncé song.

While riding to a restaurant for a romantic candlelit dinner, Cardi sang “Plastic on the Sofa” from Queen Bey’s new album, Renaissance.

“We don’t need the world’s acceptance, they too hard on me / They’re too hard on you, boy / I’ll always be your secret weapon in your arsenal,” she sang softly while gently caressing her husband’s face in a video posted to her Instagram Stories.

When she asked if he thinks she can sing, Offset replied, “Yeah, you got some vocals.”

Earlier that day, Cardi also sang a line from “Plastic on the Sofa” when she received a surprise personalized early birthday gift from Beyoncé. Mrs. Carter sent her a handwritten note across the top of a vinyl copy of the Renaissance album.

“To: Cardi B,” the 28-time Grammy winner wrote. “Hard working, beautiful and talented queen, thank you for always supporting me. Sending so much love to you and yours, Respect, Beyoncé.” The “Bodak Yellow” rapper was thrilled as she displayed her present on Twitter.

“Look what Beyoncé sent me,” Cardi said, holding the vinyl up to the camera for all her followers to see. “It’s so beautiful, so lovely. I’m gonna put it in a glass frame with laser beams on it. Anybody who gets motherf***ing next to it is gonna get electrocuted on motherf****ing sight.”She ended her video saying, “I just wanna say thank you so much. I feel so special.”

Cardi turns 30 years old on October 11. She married Offset on September 20, 2017 in Atlanta. They have two children together: son Wave, who turned one on September 4, and daughter Kulture, 4.

Billie Eilish released the live videos for her songs “TV” and “The 30th,” which were both filmed in Singapore.

The Grammy winner traveled to the Cloud Forest in the country’s Gardens by the Bay — most likely because they stand for several causes near and dear to Billie’s heart: innovation, sustainability and conservation.

“Singapore was one of the first places I ever went on tour. I was only there for a day and absolutely fell in love with it,” she said in a statement. “The Cloud Forest is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Billie is surrounded by a lush, green garden bursting with bright orange, pink, red and yellow flowers as she performs her two songs. She said it felt right to film the music videos for “TV” and “The 30th” in the Cloud Forest.

“These two songs really are just very important to me in a lot of ways,” the Oscar winner expressed. “I feel really connected to them and very personally protective over them, and I wanted to have some sort of peace with the songs that felt really intimate and personal. It just felt really comfortable to do it in a place as beautiful at the Cloud Forest.”

Billie released the songs early into the summer after launching a surprise performance of “TV” when on her Happier Than Ever world tour. Before debuting the song alongside her brother, FINNEAS, she told the excited crowd, “We haven’t played a new song live before it’s out since 2017 or 2018.”

The new music videos were made in partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board as part of their international recovery campaign, SingapoReimagine.

Maren MorrisHumble Quest is up for Album of the Year at the 2022 CMA Awards, but she says that she might not attend the ceremony this year — even though she’s grateful for the nomination.

“Honestly, I haven’t decided if I’m gonna go,” Maren tells the Los Angeles Times in a new interview. “I’m very honored that my record is nominated. But I don’t know if I feel [at] home there right now.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Maren spoke about her recent feud with Jason Aldean’s wife, Brittany, regarding some transphobic comments that Brittany made in an Instagram reel. It’s not the first time that Maren has spoken out against racism, sexism or other hate-filled speech and actions in the country music industry.

“So many people I love will be in that room, and maybe I’ll make a game-time decision and go,” the singer says of the CMAs. “But as of right now, I don’t feel comfortable going.”

She went on to say that she’s at peace with that decision, especially because she’s previously felt uncomfortable at awards shows.

“I think I was more sad going last year,” Maren admits. “Some nights are fun. Others I’m just crawling out of my skin. I’m not good at those events because I’m awkward. But this time I kind of feel peaceful at the notion of not going.”

The 2022 CMA Awards will air live from Nashville November 9 on ABC. Luke Bryan is set to co-host the show alongside Peyton Manning.
