Perry Farrell - Pirate Punk Politician

Perry Farrell — JANES ADDICTION and PORNO PYROS frontman and Lollapalooza founder—has announced his first solo album in 18 years. "Kind Heaven" is out June 7 via BMG.

Perry Farrell’s Kind Heaven Orchestra will perform at Park Stage on Sunday 6/30, 8:30pm-9:30pm

Today's tune "Pirate Punk Politician" is the lead single from "Kind Heaven". Farrell calls the tune “a good old fashioned protest song about today’s strongmen and their tactics of oppression”.

"Kind Heaven" follows 2001’s Song Yet to Be Sung and the 2011 JANES ADDICTION record "The Great Escape Artist". The new album features a collective of musicians called Perry Farrell’s King Heaven Orchestra. It also includes contributions from Dhani Harrison (George Harrison’s son), the CARS’ Elliot Easton, FOO FIGHTERS’ Taylor Hawkins, and others. It was co-produced by Farrell and David Bowie collaborator Tony Visconti.

In 2005, music producer Tor Hyams approached Farrell with the idea of creating a kids' stage with family-friendly fare at Lollapalooza. Kidzapalooza came to be that year, produced by Hyams and continues to this day with guests like Slash, Patti Smith and LeAnn Rimes appearing in the lineup of artists. Kidzapalooza makes Lollapalooza Stockholm a great festival for all ages – a world full of adventure and experiences for the whole family. Take your kids to see your favorite bands and retreat back to an area filled with entertainment and activities that encourage playfulness, creativity and laughter.

Enjoy lots of performances every day on the Kidzapalooza stage “Tältscenen”, with exciting acts such as James Hollingworth, Britta Persson, Orkester Pop, Oscar Danielson, Maria Llerena – among other activities such as a mini disco and theater shows.

Enjoy today's tune with Perry Farrell performs "Pirate Punk Politician" for the Tonight Show audience.

Greta Van Fleet - When the Curtain Falls

A few weeks ago GRETA VAN FLEET premiered "When the Curtain Falls", the first single from their highly anticipated, as-yet-untitled debut album. A week ago, the band stopped by The Tonight Show to perform the single. See it below.

The young, Michigan-based group first came to prominence last year with their debut EP, "Black Smoke Rising", and its high-flying lead single, "Highway Tune." Since then, the group's profile has risen exponentially, with endorsements from the likes of Joe Satriani and a number of sell-out tour dates. A widespread comparisons to no-less than LED ZEPPELIN with their bombastic riffs, atomic drumming, and searing vocals.

The band have just started touring and soon they will pay Europe a visit and a show in Stockholm is set on November the 4th. Really looking forward to this.

Today's tune "When the Curtain Falls" is taken from the upcoming yet-untitled debut album. The clip is taken from a episode of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", July 26.
