June 2, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Music fans are getting their first look at the new Peter Frampton documentary, Frampton.

The first trailer for the film has just been released. It features a whole lot of archival photos and video, as well as interview clips from Sheryl Crow, Ringo Starr, Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, director Cameron Crowe, Alice Cooper, Styx’s Tommy Shaw, Heart’s Nancy Wilson, The Who’s Roger Daltrey and more.

There are also clips of Frampton being interviewed, where he comments about the aftermath of the huge success of his 1976 album, Frampton Comes Alive!

“You don’t realize what the onslaught is like until you’re #1 in the world and that’s when the s*** hit the fan,” says Frampton, noting he began drinking too much and doing too many drugs. He was also in a car accident, with Frampton saying, “(I) broke just about every bone in my body.”

Frampton, directed by Rob Arthur, is described as “an intimate portrait of a rock icon who soared, stumbled, and rose again.” It will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Festival on Thursday in New York City. Tickets are on sale now.

Olivia Rodrigo covers Irish singer CMAT’s song as CMAT freaks out

June 2, 2026 by WDNY Radio

The last time Olivia Rodrigo performed for the BBC’s Live Lounge feature in the U.K., it got a big response from fans. This time, she got a big response from the artist whose song she covered.

Olivia’s latest appearance features her singing “When a Good Man Cries” by the Irish artist CMAT, which is short for her full name, Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson. CMAT posted a video of herself watching the cover and then flipping out when Olivia got to the lyric, “Well, I’ve never changed/ But Lord, I’m tryna/ The people’s mess/ Dunboyne Diana.”

“Dunboyne” is the Irish town CMAT grew up in. “She said Dunboyne!” CMAT screamed several times while clapping and jumping up and down. “Oh my God, she said Dunboyne! I don’t know why that’s f****** killin’ me, she actually said Dunboyne!”

“Dunboyne tourism board just exploded,” commented one fan.

CMAT wrote in the caption, “She sang it better than me so now im toast . @oliviarodrigo pints ?” Olivia responded, “I LITERALLY LOVE U SM.”

Olivia previously covered Noah Kahan’s “Stick Season” in the Live Lounge, which led to Noah covering Olivia’s song “lacy” for the same show.

June 2, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Next year will mark the 25th anniversary of the MTV reality series The Osbournes, which followed the lives of Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne, his wife and two of their children. And evidently fans may soon get to experience the show in a whole new way.

“We are in talks with a company now about doing a cartoon of The Osbournes, and it would open up a whole younger audience,” Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, told Global Licensing Group at the recent Licensing Expo in Las Vegas.

“Nostalgia is the key word these days, so I think it just, you know, leans a lot in there. It’s 25 year ago,” his son, Jack Osbourne, added. “Since we started distributing the show again there’s a whole new audience out there for it.”

Sharon and Jack also discussed their desire to keep Ozzy’s memory alive.

“I think that it’s, you know, the Ozzy brand and legacy is open for business,” Jack said. Sharon noted, “Ozzy’s not going anywhere. He’s with us and he’s not going anywhere and that’s what it’s all about, to keep his legacy alive.”

Ozzy Osbourne died July 22, 2025, at age 76.

Harry Styles sets the scene for ‘Golden’ proposal at Amsterdam concert

June 2, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Imagine your partner proposing to you — while Harry Styles serenades you both with a love song he just dedicated to you.

That’s what happened to Natália Machado, after she and her boyfriend, Lucas Bajerski, happened to bump into Harry on the street in Amsterdam in May. As People reports, the couple was in town to see Harry perform on his Together, Together tour, and Lucas mentioned that he planned to propose at the concert.

At the show the next night Harry dedicated his song “Golden” to the couple, saying, “Lucas and Natália, this one’s for you.” Lucas got down on one knee and gave Natália a note that read, “You’re So Golden. Casa Comigo?” That means “marry me” in Portuguese.

Lucas tells People, “As soon as I heard that the song was dedicated for us, I did it… and cried.”

Harry then told the crowd that the two had just gotten engaged, and related the story about how they met on the street the previous day. You can see video of the proposal, and of Harry telling the story, on the couple’s Instagram pages.

“It’s … crazy that he represented the situation really well at the show, because it was how it happened, with every detail,” Lucas tells People, adding that Harry “creates an atmosphere of treating people with kindness. … It was one unforgettable night.”

Lucas wrote on Instagram, “Thank you @harrystyles for making this night even more special, thank you for helping me and dedicating an entire song to us! I hope you know that the invitation to be a groomsman is still open!”

Rescheduled date announced for Jimi Hendrix street naming

June 2, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Jimi Hendrix is finally getting a street named after him in New York.

West 8th Street in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, where Hendrix’s legendary Electric Lady Studios is located, was due to be co-named Jimi Hendrix Way back in February, but an extensive snow storm forced the postponement of the event. The naming has now been rescheduled.

The street will get its new name on June 10 at 11 a.m. ET, with the ceremony taking place a block from the studio.

Among those attending the street naming will be E Street Band guitarist Stevie Van Zandt. The event will coincide with the launch of a new education partnership with the rocker’s education initiative TeachRock, which uses music and pop culture to expand learning in schools. The partnership will result in the addition of a Hendrix curriculum for middle and high school students.

Experience Hendrix LLC President and CEO Janie Hendrix will also be on hand for the ceremony, along with Living Colour’s Vernon Reid, singer Valerie Simpson, Hendrix producer Eddie Kramer, NYC District 2 council member Harvey Epstein, and a group of local TeachRock teachers and students.
