Queens of the Stone Age

Queens of the Stones Age, led by the multi-talented Josh Homme, release their 6th album in June.

We’ve waited 6 years for …Like Clockwork and guest appearances will range from Trent Reznor to Elton John.

“My God is the Sun” is the first single.

Zooey and Jared

Many musicians have gone on to have successful careers in film, from Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley to Will Smith and Justin Timberlake.

But I can think of only two film stars who have crossed-over and prospered in music: Zooey Deschanel and Jared Leto. This is not to say that some actors are not accomplished musicians, but rather their musical pursuits are more of an avocation. Only Zooey and Jared have flourished as full-fledged musical stars.

Zooey performs with M. Ward as the band She & Him and Jared with 30 Seconds to Mars.

They both have new albums due in May and we feature a track from each.

She & Him “Never Wanted Your Love” (Volume 3)

30 Seconds to Mars “Up in the Air” (Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams)

M83

M83, the French electronic band led by Anthony Gonzales, gave us Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming in 2011. It proved to be one of the best double LP’s in recent memory.

Of late Gonzales has been working with composer Joseph Trapanese on the film score for the Tom Cruise sci-fi thriller Oblivion.

M83 has created the title song for the movie. “Oblivion” features the vocals of Norwegian singer Susanne Sundfør.
