A band can be described as a group of musicians who play various instruments, percussion, wind, brass, or strings, in one united chord. Each of the instruments is different; unique in sound and appearance, yet together, they combine to make beautiful music, a melody that can stir the soul and arouse to action. We dance, we sing along, we remember the good times that we had when we hear our favorite songs, or they may be a marker to a particular event in our lives. Nevertheless, music is powerful, arousing us to differing emotions and action.

After his engagement suddenly ends, Joshy and a few his friends decide to take advantage of what was supposed to be his bachelor party in Ojai, California. In their attempt to help Joshy deal with the recent turn of events, the guys turn the getaway into a raucous weekend filled with drugs, booze, debauchery, and hot tubs. Written and directed by Jeff Baena, featuring a score by Devendra Banhart and an ensemble cast of hilarious comedic talents-including Thomas Middleditch (HBO’s “Silicon Valley”), Adam Pally (TV’s “Happy Endings”), Alex Ross Perry (director of Queen of Earth), Nick Kroll (TV’s “The League”), Brett Gelman (TV’s “Married”) and Jenny Slate (Obvious Child) -Jeff Baena’s sophomore feature is a wickedly amusing portrayal of male bonding and emotional incompetence.

I’ve been listening to the music of Frank Sinatra regularly since my formative years of high school. In my sophomore year, I received my first Sinatra album as a Christmas gift from a classmate, a compact disc of Sinatra’s next to final album at Capitol Records, the jovial 1961 release “Come Swing With Me,” with Billy May and his orchestra. Riding home from school for holiday break, I popped the disc into my amber-colored (and now fiercely antiquated) Sony CD Walkman.
Listening to the sounds of May’s lit brass section firing off stinging notes from both sides of my headphones on the opening track, “Day By Day,” it was truly the first time I had listened to a Sinatra song that wasn’t considered for (or ever part of) a greatest hits’ compilation.

It looks like Lucy’s got that Vitametavegamin taste out of her mouth – she’s finally smiling! New Lucy was unveiled this week to the delight of many fans. The bronze work of art in the town of Celoron, New York, that made a menacing figure out of the iconic (and quite beautiful) comedian Lucille Ball is no more. The original statue caused quite a few gasps during it’s 2009 unveiling as it was a quite frightening and unflattering representation of the comedic beauty.

Swing is the thing this time around on “Pearce’s Picks,” and we feature two rare titles performed exceptionally by two obscure singers whose work, with thanks to the advent of music downloads, have survived into the twenty-first century. It was 1958. There were two men with the first name of Johnny, one on the West Coast, one on the East Coast. One at the beginning of the year, and one at the tail end, they both set out to make some great music.

Taylor Swift sang about having “bad blood” that “used to be mad love” but Mariah Carey and the producers of American Idol are living those words. Speaking to journalists at the Television Critics Association’s summer press tour on Wednesday (Aug. 3), where Carey was promoting her eight-part upcoming E! docuseries, Mariah’s World, the singer threw a major jab at the once formidable Fox show — for which she was a judge alongside rapper Nicki Minaj, country star Keith Urban and producer Randy Jackson during season 12 — calling it “an abusive experience” and cracking that talking about it would drive her “to drink.”
