An Amelia Earhart mural by @jeks_nc was unveiled at @nwrc_college during @foylemaritime ’s Get Up Street Art Festival in Derry-Londonderry last weekend. The new mural—Northern Ireland’s tallest—commemorates Earhart’s 1932 landing in the city to become the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic. Laurie’s new album, ‘Amelia,’ is out next month. #AmeliaEarhart #Amelia #Mural

On this day in 1937, Amelia Earhart disappeared over the Pacific Ocean while attempting to become the first female pilot to circumnavigate the globe. The lyrics for “Radio,” a song from Laurie’s upcoming album ‘Amelia,’ are inspired by the radio log of Earhart’s final communications with the US Coast Guard cutter Itasca. #AmeliaEarheart #Amelia

“It’s like an engine for the world. And when we don’t have that—we can’t not have that ... It’s like we’re compelled to do it,” @CecileMcLorinSalvant says of the arts on the series How Art Changed Me from NYC @PBS station @ThirteenWNET ’s @AllArtsTV . “For me, singing and music has been a way to really be direct and say what I mean and what I feel.” You can watch it at link in bio. #CecileMcLorinSalvant #Arts #Art #PBS #WNET #AllArts #Jazz #Nonesuch #NonesuchRecords

“’Ghost’ explores the weariness and anxiety of being a fully feeling human who is forced to live in our modern world and its tech-saturated chaos,” @Ringdownmusic ’s @DanniLeeP and @CarolineAdelaideShaw say of their second Nonesuch single, out now. “This is especially isolating in the world of internet dating, where the spotty texting tempo and normalized behavior of ‘ghosting’ someone can feel crushing. We used the clunky pedal sounds from a vintage piano as a heartbeat throughout the song. To us, this represents the yearning for connection beyond technology.” #Ringdown #DanniLeeParpan #CarolineShaw #Ghost #Ghosting #Ghosted #Nonesuch #NonesuchRecords

Congratulations to @kdlang , whom the Canadian Country Music Association (@ccmaofficial ) has named the 2024 artist inductee to the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame! She will be honored in an induction ceremony in Edmonton in September. “I am beyond thrilled, and frankly pleasantly surprised to be honored in this way,” lang says. “My love for the prairies, the people, and our culture underscore every ounce of my inspiration.

I am so stoked to be coming to Edmonton to bask in this celebration … with deepest gratitude.” More at link in bio. 📷: @herbritts Foundation #kdlang #ccma #CandianCountryMusicAssociation #CountryMusic #HerbRitts #Nonesuch #NonesuchRecords

Congratulations to composer and band leader @DarcyJamesArgue on being named the Frankfurt Radio Big Band’s new Composer in Residence. “Taking on this legacy is a massive responsibility, one I accept with the very deepest gratitude. Over the past 16 years, Jim McNeely has honed this group into a world-class big band, filled with amazing players that take great personal pride in the ensemble, and who always put the music first. I love this band and the people in it, and I’m very excited to be embarking on a new adventure with them!” Read more at link in bio. 📷: @beyersteinlindsay #DarcyJamesArgue #BigBand #Jazz #FrankfurtRadioBigBand #Nonesuch #NonesuchRecords
