Kings favorite The Neighbourhood who we posted before they struck a deal with Columbia Records recently performed at Coachella. Their single “Sweater Weather” is quickly climbing the rock charts. In a recent MTV interview, Rutherford said this:

“When I was a kid, I had goals: a record deal with a big old record company, playing Coachella and these cool shows; I want to push it far,” he said. “I truly believe that we’ve written some strong songs, and they’re not the best songs we’re ever going to write, but they’re damn good songs. And I want people to feel part of this, to be part of this community, part of the neighbourhood.”

Fleetwood Mac have released their first collection of new music in a decade. As promised, the legendary band tabled a full album in favor of an EP, titled “Extended Play” and available exclusively on iTunes.

The foursome — Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie — announced the release on the band’s website on Tuesday.

The record kicks off with the bouncy “Sad Angel,” in which Buckingham and Nicks harmonize over looping guitar and Mick Fleetwood’s driving beat. “Hello, hello sad angel, have you come to fight the war?” they ask.

The rest of the EP includes the classic-sounding “Without You,” which started as a track for Buckingham Nicks, the duo’s pre-Mac group. There’s also a piano ballad by Buckingham called “It Takes Time” and the album closer “Miss Fantasy.”

It’s their first new music since 2003’s “Say You Will,” which debuted and peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200.

Wayward, a DIY pop act from Reno have released 3 EP’s with the latest produced by Andrew Goldstein, Dan Book and Alexei Misoul (Hot Chelle Rae). The band filmed their first video for the track Crazy For Loving You which has already passed 45,000 views.
