The musician and activist answers your questions about her marriage to Ewan MacColl, being the inspiration for The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, and her mother’s legacyTouring at 90 is amazing. What was a career highlight? Nicens_boi
When I was 60 the thought of touring when I was 70 was anathema and the thought of touring at 90 seemed dreadful! The hardest part is sitting in the car. We’re gonna be away six weeks and I’m a walking hospital case. I have meds, a step stool so -
Shanti Celeste: Romance review | Alexis Petridis's album of the week
(Method 808/Peach Discs)
Six years on from her acclaimed ‘fast house’ debut, the UK singer-producer invites listeners into a sunlit space between night out and morning afterNo one could accuse Shanti Celeste of being a dance producer who indulges in lofty conceptualising about their music. Not for her, the album that represents the soundtrack to a film that hasn’t been made yet, or a sci-fi-influenced cosmic opera, or a globe-spanning travelogue inspired by the peripatetic life -
Bruce Springsteen review – a roaring, rousing show that imagines a better America
Co-op Live, Manchester
The Boss and his E Street Band pluck hope from the depths of despair with a fiery show that hits out at the US administration but ends with loveBefore Bruce Springsteen sings a word on the opening night of his European tour, he has something to get off his chest. “The mighty E Street Band is here tonight to call upon the righteous power of art, of music, of rock’n’roll in dangerous times,” he says.“The America I love is currently in the hands -

Bye bye banana wolves! Is social media ruining Eurovision?
From gorilla stage invasions to novelty butter churners, the extravaganza has always been a haven for wackiness. But it’s getting less outre by the year … and YouTube and TikTok are to blame. More Papa Pingouin required!Eurovision has always been a time to gather round the TV and experience dancing babushkas, gorilla stage invasions and someone inhaling from a helium balloon halfway through their song. But being a Eurovision entry now looks like being part of an exhausting social me -
‘I terribly wanted to be liked. Still do’: Status Quo’s Francis Rossi on money worries, his deepest neuroses – and sounding like Nellie the Elephant
Lampooned by critics but loved by fans, Quo turned boogie into blockbuster rock. As a live album captures their 70s peak, their frontman remembers late friend Rick Parfitt – and reconsiders his whole sense of selfIf you want to contemplate quite how far back Status Quo’s roots go, consider this: the band’s founders came together before the Beatles had released their first single, before the idea of “the band” was even a thing in pop music. They’re often dismis -
Guy Garvey on Elbow’s One Day Like This: ‘Every week, someone tells me they got married to it’
‘We threw strings at the track and it exploded into Lion-King-esque euphoria. I once got sent footage of a few hundred people on either side of a tube track singing it at each other’By 2007, we’d had a nerve-racking couple of years. We were on the V2 label for our first three albums but they were slowly folding. We signed with Fiction without them having heard a note of our fourth album, Seldom Seen Kid. As the money was running out, it was looking like “proper job” -
Steven Wilson review – an interstellar sound voyage with Floydian grandeur
Bristol Beacon
On his first solo tour in seven years, Wilson transports a rapt audience through three hours of prog, bubbling electronica and time-bending post-rock blissA few feet above Steven Wilson’s head, the universe expands and contracts. His attention, though, is on a bank of equipment, from which he’s attempting to pull sounds that match the interstellar scope of the visuals spread across the gargantuan screen that hangs over him. Across the course of almost three hours, he d -

The outspoken country star is moving into her pop era and is keen to set the record straight over what that means for her life in NashvilleThe year 2023 was a tough one for Maren Morris. The country singer, then 33, reached the end of her tour for her third studio album, Humble Quest, and the end of her rope with the conservative politics of country music industry.

‘Ich komme!’ The smutty Eurovision songs that dodge the censors
From ensuring your swearwords are in languages other than English to outrageous euphemisms, contestants in the famously camp extravaganza have ways to avoid being toned down …When the winner of this year’s Eurovision song contest is announced shortly before midnight next Saturday, it won’t be the first climax of the evening. “I’m coming / I’m coming,” a scantily clad Finn will announce in the chorus of her song.

Billy Woods: Golliwog review – one of the most engrossing, unnerving records you’ll hear this year
(Backwoodz Studioz)
The New York rapper confronts trauma and state-sanctioned terror with his latest release, pulling out innumerable images of inhumanityGolliwog has the ambience of a horror movie: dissonant strings, like nails on a chalkboard, form the basis of the track Star87; agonised screams are sampled throughout; every so often, an ominous drone will fill a song to the point of overwhelm. On that level alone, New York underground icon Billy Woods’ latest album would be a feat of so -
Lido Pimienta: La Belleza review – Gregorian chant meets dembow rhythm in a work of remarkable depth
(Anti-)
Inspired by the music of Luboš Fiser and Catholic requiem mass, the instrumentals are deft and surprising, but Pimienta’s captivating, flawless vocals steal the showFive years since her Grammy-nominated breakthrough record Miss Colombia, singer and producer Lido Pimienta has taken a radical shift in direction. On Miss Colombia, Pimienta combined sprightly electro pop with cumbia rhythms and soaring vocals to critique racism and misogyny – now, her fourth album La Belle -

Brooklyn Steel, New YorkStranger Things actor’s musical project has now gone from bedroom to the big stage and, while not all of it works, there’s energy to spareBy now, Djo is not a secret.

Ready or not, here she comes: Lauryn Hill’s 20 best songs – ranked!
Ahead of her 50th birthday this month, we rate the best tracks of the multi-hyphenate talent who, with Fugees and as a solo artist, blended soul, hip-hop and reggae with raw emotion and charismaThe closest their debut album Blunted on Reality came to a crossover hit, Nappy Heads is almost unrecognisable as the work of Fugees, who went on to sell millions of records. But it’s an of-its-era joy nonetheless, with a boom-bap rhythm and horns sampled from jazzy 70s funk. Continue reading... -
PinkPantheress: Fancy That review – sharp-minded bops hop across pop’s past and present
(Warner)
Denigrated by some as the epitome of attention-deficit youth, the English pop musician became huge nonetheless – and her latest has an inspiringly free-associative feel
There’s something telling about the fact that PinkPantheress launched the first single from her second mixtape with a video boasting that it was 2:57 long. “Ion [I don’t] wanna see no more song length jokes,” ran the caption accompanying a brief video of her dancing to Tonight, a track that -

‘I was the only person who didn’t know the words to Coldplay’: Anoushka Shankar’s honest playlist
The musician on her love of cheesy R&B, hating karaoke ‘with a fiery passion’, and the people who have sex to her sister Norah Jones’s musicThe first song I fell in love with
Tana Mana by my dad, Ravi Shankar. In the late 80s he was experimenting with synthesisers and released an album called Tana Mana, an anomaly in his discography. I remember my imagination would light up with the title song – I would picture a village dance, and I’d be acting it out in my liv -
Who is behind the great rock’n’roll ripoff? How Ticketmaster swallowed the live entertainment scene
From grassroots gigs to stadium shows, there’s no escaping the ticketing giant, making billions from hiking up prices (and whacking on fees)Even Donald Trump knows that the price of concert tickets is too damn high.
