As they celebrate the 20th-anniversary of their multi-platinum debut album,
The Better Life, 3 Doors Down are planning three special live-stream concerts. Each set, taking place over the next two months, will offers fans a unique opportunity to catch the Mississippi rock band in acoustic and electric settings.
The “3 X LIVE” series kicks off at 6:00 pm PST on February 5 with an anniversary show, in which the band will perform
The Better Life in its entirety for the very first time, in addition to three never-before-heard songs from their vault.
KISS fan community can now look forward to a very high-quality, exclusive vinyl edition:
Killers, the band’s second best-of album from 1982 will be released on 12 March as a strictly limited and numbered 2LP edition. This is the very first vinyl reissue by KISS to be released as a half-speed master.
Following on from the reissue of their first best-of album
Double Platinum in summer 2019, KISS’
Killers compilation is now finally following on vinyl. The new edition – which is strictly limited to 4,000 copies worldwide – is based on the remastered CD edition that was last available exclusively in Japan.
Killers will be released as a lavishly-designed 2LP on translucent pink heavyweight vinyl (180g) in a gatefold cover (printed on silver foil), and includes a fold-out Leporello art print and a bonus sticker.
A seven-day celebration
Independent Venue Week describes itself as “a seven-day celebration of music venues around the country and a nod to the people that own, run and work in them, week in, week out” and says that it is, uniquely, “a nationwide initiative with a completely local feel.”
Says Gruff Rhys: “As a touring musician, my work is completely connected to having independent venues exist. It’s about people, not the actual buildings. It’s about the energy and enthusiasm that music fans have created in towns and cities and villages and so, we need to give a voice for those people to be heard.
It was previously announced that
Demi Lovato would be making an appearance at the event. The full line-up announcement brings news of the participation of Yungblud, Finneas, Zara Larsson, J Balvin, and more in exclusive live performances.
Other musicians to appear at the virtual event include Sabrina Carpenter, Dua Lipa, Ne-Yo, Karol G, Kane Brown, YG, Hunter Hayes, and James Blunt, among others.
“With the world ready to move past an extremely challenging year, YouTube will use its global reach to celebrate the hope and promise of 2021,” YouTube Global Head of Original Content Susanne Daniels said in a statement. “We look forward to closing the book on 2020 and throwing a worldwide celebration that our YouTube community can safely enjoy from home.”
