Julien Baker Plots 2024 North American Tour

Julien Baker Plots 2024 North American Tour

Julien Baker will return to the road this fall for a North American tour.

The songwriter and boygenius member will kick off the trek with three nights at Chicago’s Thalia Hall beginning Sept. 23. She’ll then head to the East Coast — with a stop at the inaugural All Things Go Music Festival in New York alongside Chappell Roan, Reneé Rapp, Janelle Monáe, and others — before spending three nights at New York’s Webster Hall. The tour will wrap back on the West Coast, with multiple nights in San Francisco and Los Angeles.


Baker released her most recent solo album, the excellent Little Oblivions, in 2021. She spent 2022 on the Wild Hearts Tour with Angel Olsen and Sharon Van Etten, before dropping the explosive, full-length boygenius debut the record in 2023. The trio — consisting of Baker, Lucy Dacus, and Phoebe Bridgers — toured extensively and won several Grammys.

In boygenius’ Rolling Stone cover story, Baker spoke about the immense fame she was about to experience with the record. “There is a part of me that gets very easily intimidated by stuff because I have a country-mouse complex,” she said. “But so far the commitments that we have, they’re just my job at a different scale. I don’t think that my life can change and blow up without my permission. I could just go play these gigs in bigger venues than I’m used to playing, and then I could just continue to go home and go help my neighbors mow their lawn.” 

Tickets for Baker’s tour go on sale Friday.

RFK Jr. Suspends Campaign, Endorses Trump

RFK Jr. Suspends Campaign, Endorses Trump

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suspended his 2024 presidential campaign, and according to a court filing in Pennsylvania on Friday will throw his weight behind former President Donald Trump.

Multiple news outlets reported on Wednesday that independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. was planning to drop out of the race and endorse Trump. He clarified at an event in Arizona on Friday that he is not terminating his campaign, only suspending it, and that his name will remain on the ballot in non-battleground states. He said that if enough people still vote for him and Trump and Kamala Harris tie in the Electoral College, he could still wind up in the White House.

The Chicks’ ‘Not Ready to Make Nice’ Has Somehow Become a MAGA Anthem on TikTok

The Chicks’ ‘Not Ready to Make Nice’ Has Somehow Become a MAGA Anthem on TikTok

One little funny/bizarre/horrifying thing about the internet is the way it offers up everything and, in doing so, makes it possible to strip anything of its history. But to paraphrase Kamala Harris, you didn’t just fall out of the coconut tree. “You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you” — wise words worth heeding, especially for all the Trump voters and conservatives making TikToks with the Chicks’ “Not Ready to Make Nice.”

Over the past month or so, “Not Ready to Make Nice” has become an unexpected MAGA anthem of sorts, meant to express a certain rage at liberals supposedly telling conservatives what to do all the time (the past few Supreme Court terms notwithstanding, apparently). Young women especially have taken the song as a way to push back against the possibility of Harris becoming the first female president.

Hear Blink-182 Have Fun While Complaining They Have ‘No Fun’ on New Songs

Ahead of the release of One More Time … Part-2, Blink-182 have released two new charging pop-punk songs, “All in My Head” and “No Fun.” The updated album will come out Sept. 6.

On “All in My Head,” Mark Hoppus sings about how hard touring life is staying in “lonely hotel rooms, cum stains on the couch.” But for as gross and sad as that reads, the song itself is pretty fun. Hoppus and Tom DeLonge trade vocals on the chorus: “I’m moving on, I’m better now, I sleep alone,” Hoppus sings, while DeLonge counters about how he’s not giving up despite feeling like he’s not good enough and how it hurts getting up. All that leads to an existential crisis, “I’m freaking out, is it all in my head?”
