February 26, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Sarah Michelle Gellar is paying tribute to Michelle Trachtenberg one year after her death.

The actress took to Instagram on Thursday to share a carousel of photos with Trachtenberg, as well as a lengthy caption paying tribute to her Buffy the Vampire Slayer co-star.

“I’m not sure how it’s been a year. I’m one of the lucky ones who has over 30 years of memories with you. From our first day on set together, to less than a year later, when you were already taller than me,” Gellar wrote.

The actress continued, saying she first worked with Trachtenberg on All My Children and watched her “become a star” in the film Harriet the Spy.

“You were great to my kids. Countless kids bdays you attended even though I’m sure you had somewhere cooler to be,” Gellar wrote. “But most of all, when I think of you, that smile that took up your entire face and brought so much joy to others is what comes to mind.”

Gellar ended her tribute by saying she will never forget Trachtenberg.

“You may not have been with us long enough, but we will make sure everyone remembers,” Gellar wrote.

Trachtenberg was found dead in her New York City apartment on Feb. 26, 2025. She died a natural death at age 39 from complications of diabetes, according to the New York City medical examiner’s office.

Sepultura announces farewell EP, ’The Cloud of Unknowing’

February 26, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Sepultura has announced a new EP called The Cloud of Unknowing, which will mark the Brazilian metal band’s farewell release.

The four-track set is due out April 24. Its first single, called “The Place,” is out now.

“This song deals with immigrants who have come to a place seeking refuge and start a new life,” reads a post on Sepultura’s Facebook. “Once assimilated into a false sense of security and relentless propaganda they began to act out against what they hate about themselves.”

“The transition begins to escape from the self hatred and the lashing out against people who believed in the same ideas,” the post continues. “I feel the lyrics truly follow the transitions of the song. Starting with disappointment and arriving at anger.”

Sepultura announced in 2023 they were disbanding after a farewell tour. The final North American leg kicks off in April.

February 26, 2026 by WDNY Radio

Rod Stewart and King Charles III are old pals, which is why this May Rod will be headlining a charity concert celebrating the 50th anniversary of one of Charles’ best-known charities, The King’s Trust.

Charles founded the charity, then known as The Prince’s Trust, in 1976 to help vulnerable people aged 11 to 30, many of whom are struggling with issues like mental health problems, disability, homelessness, unemployment or legal troubles. Now known as The King’s Trust, it helps these people develop essential life skills, train in various fields and access job opportunities.

On May 11, Rod and Jools Holland, his musical collaborator on his most recent album, Swing Fever, will take the stage at London’s Royal Albert Hall for the 50th anniversary benefit concert. Jools says to Rod in an Instagram video, “It’ll be an incredible evening, won’t it?” “It will,” agrees Rod. “If we’re there,” adds Jools. “Fifty years. Be there,” commands Rod.

Also on the bill are Rod’s best friend and former bandmate Ron Wood, as well as British pop stars Anne-Marie, Rita Ora and Craig David. Tickets are on sale now.

Having rock and pop stars perform to raise funds for the charity is nothing new for the trust. Starting in the ’80s, the Prince’s Trust concerts featured everyone from Phil Collins, Queen, Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton to Elton John, Paul McCartney, Tina Turner, George Harrison, the Bee Gees and, of course, Rod.
