Austin’s Acl Live at the Moody Theater was once again where the stars of tomorrow came out, earlier this month, as Rolling Stone’s Future of Music Showcase at SXSW took over the famed Texas venue for the third straight year. For four nights, fans packed into the 2,750-capacity Moody to see artists like Benson Boone, Megan Moroney, Ivan Cornejo, and Rema, along with acts that spanned an array of genres — pop, música mexicana, Southern rock, country, alt-reggaeton, Afrobeats, hip-hop, folk-pop, indie-rock, soul, and even “Death Cab for Country...

“I’m ready for this year,” Benson Boone told Rolling Stone in a January interview for his new cover story, one of four for our annual Future of Music issue. “I’m so rested, and my mind is so clear. It’s unbelievable.” Boone, of course, is just coming off a major year, with his unstoppable “Beautiful Things” the most-streamed song in the world in 2024. Now, he’s got a new album, American Heart, on the way. One stop along the road to an even more major 2025: Rolling Stone...

[Editor’s Note: The following review contains spoilers for “Evil” Episode 4, “Rose390.”]

A title like “Evil” comes with expectations. Just a handful of weeks into the CBS drama’s run, this week’s episode showed that Michelle and Robert King’s latest TV creation intends to follow its name to grisly places.

Episode 4 of “Evil” — “Rose390” — sees the show’s central sleuths trying to determine whether one boy’s increasingly alarming actions are the result of innate sociopathy or a symptom of an environmental explanation. Psychologist Kristen Bouchard (Katja Herbers) and Church investigator David Acosta (Mike Colter) take their respective approaches in reasoning with young Eric (Luke Judy), trying to understand and counteract his mounting disturbed behavior. Meanwhile, perpetual pragmatist Ben Shakir (Aasif Mandvi) searches for answers in the more unexciting explanations (like water pollutants).

The trio’s services are enlisted by worried parents who have turned Eric’s bedroom into a de facto holding cell. The boy’s...

Twin Peaks Recap is a weekly column by Keith Uhlich covering David Lynch and Mark Frost's limited, 18-episode continuation of the Twin Peaks television series.It's great to be in the know. To have a moment (hopefully more than one) when the veil drops and, per that old song, the mysteries of love (of life) come clear. Part 12 of Mark Frost and David Lynch's revived Twin Peaks opens with just such a scene, as FBI Agent Tammy Preston (Chrysta Bell) is initiated into the Blue Rose Task Force by her superiors Albert Rosenfield (Miguel Ferrer) and Gordon Cole (Lynch). The references Albert drops—to things like "Project Blue Book" and to people like "Chet Desmond"—will be familiar to any Peaks obsessive who has pored over the original series, the Fire Walk with Me movie, or Frost's 2016 tie-in novel The Secret History of Twin Peaks. But remember that...

The new "Twin Peaks" isn't slated to debut on Showtime until 2017, but a flurry of speculation about it happened last week with a tweet from Go For Locations indicating that filming had wrapped on the "first two seasons" of the series.

The episode count for the David Lynch-directed series was always in question, but that tweet suggested we'd be getting even more episodes than originally planned. Said tweet has since been deleted, so we'll have to wait to see how that pans out.

in the meantime in more official news, Showtime, Lynch and Mark Frost has released the official cast list for the new series with a whopping 217 names across the various episodes - a list that includes some real surprise big name inclusions such as Monica Bellucci, Michael Cera, Naomi Watts, Tim Roth, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Eddie Vedder, Ashley Judd, Ernie Hudson, Jim Belushi, Richard Chamberlain, Laura Dern,...
