Bob Marley & The Wailers to Revisit Classic 1976 shows on ‘Rock, Reggae: Live at the Hammersmith Odeon’

A classic Bob Marley & The Wailers run from 50 years ago will finally be officially released tomorrow via Tuff Gong/Island/UMe. Titled Roots, Rock, Reggae: Live at the Hammersmith Odeon, the previously unissued 18-track live document will capture the reggae pioneers’ June 15-18, 1976, stand at London’s Hammersmith Odeon, which kicked off the second leg of their Rastaman Vibration tour.

According to the album announcement, “The prestigious booking was a risky move, with a ticket count five times of a usual Wailers show. They sold it out, and the group seized the moment with utter fire and precision, leaving reviewers grasping for words to describe what they’d witnessed. Bob’s time had come. The residency proved to be a watershed moment for the group. Two years earlier, within months of Eric Clapton taking ‘I Shot the Sheriff’ to No. 1 in the U.S., Marley had answered with Natty Dread (1974), his first major statement for a widening international audience. Live!, recorded at London’s Lyceum Theatre, delivered the breakthrough in late 1975, aided by the concert version of ‘No Woman, No Cry,’ which reached the U.K. Top 20 in early 1976. This growing momentum carried Marley into his celebrated June run at London’s Hammersmith Odeon. In the weeks that followed, Rastaman Vibration became his first U.S. Top 10 album.”

The set will arrive in multiple configurations, including as a 180-gram 2LP vinyl. It will also be available as an exclusive limited edition 2LP color vinyl and as a standard 2CD set, in addition to being released as digital download and streaming at all DSPs and, where available, an ATMOS mix for the full “you-are-there” concert experience.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard to Drop ‘Alien Metal’ at Midnight

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard will release their 28th album, Alien Metal, at midnight via their own (p)doom records. The surprise drop coincides with the Australian group’s second annual Field of Vision festival, which will take place in Buena Vista, CO this weekend. Though the members of King Gizzard made a surprise pop-up appearance in LA earlier this week, Field of Vision will be the proper kickoff to their first tour of 2026.

The eclectic group had previously announced that Alien Metal would arrive this summer, but the ensemble did not provide a specific timeframe until today. As reported last month, Alien Metal will lean into King Gizzard’s electronic music influences, much like 2023’s The Silver Cord, taking inspiration from their recent rave sets. It was crafted entirely on the band’s modular synthesizer rig, which they affectionately named Nathan, and all the tracks grew out of a single hour-long improvisation. The Melbourne based six-piece have already released three selections from the album, “Level 5,” “Alien Metal” and “Kill For The Steel.”

King Gizzard are slated to perform each night of Field of Vision, which runs from August 14-16. Blood Incantation, Angine de Poitrine, W.I.T.C.H., La Luz and several other acts will also appear while King Gizzard frontman Stu Mackenzie will deliver a solo set.

Dogs in a Pile have confirmed a trio of fall multi-night runs. The rising New Jersey jamband will hit the Philadelphia market first, appearing as part of King of Prussia, PA’s Concerts Under the Stars series on October 9 and 10.

Then, from October 20-21, Dogs in the Pile will hold court at Baltimore’s 8 x 10 as part of the club’s reopening suite of events. It will also mark the quintet’s return to the Mid-Atlantic venue for the first time in almost two years.

And, looking ahead a bit, Dogs will make their debut at New York’s Irving Plaza on December 4 and 5. The Band Memo will warm up the crowd on night one and Thesaurus Rex ™︎ will round out the bill on night two.

Watch: Ronnie Wood Joins Hollywood Vampires In London

Ronnie Wood made a surprise appearance with the Hollywood Vampires at London’s The O2 Arena last night. The Rolling Stones guitarist emerged during the supergroup’s encore for his band’s 1971 Sticky Fingers classic “Brown Sugar,” as well as the blues standard “Train Kept A-Rollin',” which was popularized in rock circles by The Yardbirds and later Aerosmith.

The Hollywood Vampires—an all-star project consisting of Alice Cooper, Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry, longtime Cooper guitar/bass associate Tommy Henriksen and guitarist/actor Johnny Depp—had not performed since July 30, 2023, before yesterday. They opened their show with “I Want My Now,” a 2019 single, and proceeded to chuck in material from their individual repertoires like Cooper's “School's Out” and “I’m Eighteen” and Aerosmith's “Livin' on the Edge” and “Walk This Way,” among others favorites. They also spliced in a cross-generational mix of covers, such as The Jim Carroll Band’s “People Who Die,” The Who's “Baba O’ Riley,” AC/DC's “Highway to Hell,” The Doors’ “Roadhouse Blues” and the Velvet Underground’s “Venus in Furs.” After Wood’s appearance, the night came to a close with a take on Jeff Beck’s “Hi Ho Silver Lining.”

Hollywood Vampires will perform next at Cardiff, Wales’ Cardiff Castle tomorrow. Though The Rolling Stones have opted not to tour in support of their new album Foreign Tongues, Wood did recently run through a few tracks with Mick Jagger and Stones touring member Matt Clifford at a UK press event.

moe. and Umphrey’s McGee Resume Joint Tour in Michigan

Last night, moe. and Umphrey’s McGee resumed their collaborative moe.mentUM Tour at Grand Rapids, MI’s Frederik Meijer Gardens. As the next leg of the run commenced, so did the joint encores and yesterday’s show featured several noteworthy moments.

moe. performed first, then Umphrey’s McGee played and, after the latter band’s set, members of both groups took the stage for a mix of material. At the outset of that encore segment, Umphrey’s McGee guitarist Brendan Bayliss, UM percussionist Andy Farag and UM keyboardist Joel Cummins returned to the stage with all six members of moe. for a take on their classic “Plane Crash,” marking the first time that tune has appeared in an Umphrey’s McGee setlist. Then, the rest of Umphrey’s McGee slid back in and moe. percussionist Jim Loughlin and moe. guitarist Al Schnier remained as the musicians jumped into a version of Umphrey’s McGee’s “Attachments” that segued into Genesis’ “That's All.” moe. keyboardist Nate Wilson also joined the festivities for the latter song.

The moe.mentUM Tour will continue tonight at Indianapolis, IN’s Everwise Amphitheater at White River State Park.

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong “Propose” to New Keyboardist at Domefest

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong have officially made keyboardist Jon Brady a member of their band. The Baltimore, MD-based group asked Brady, who has already spent much of the year touring with the quartet, to join their ensemble during their Domefest event in New River Gorge, WV, offering a surprise onstage proposal during their Saturday headlining spot. The weekend-long festival also boasted the debut of two new originals, a 12-plus-year cover bust out and an appearance by the Domefest All-Stars, among other surprises.

Throughout Domefest, which was held at the ACE Adventure Resort for the second year in a row, Pigeons offered six sets of music. On Thursday, they nodded to their geographic setting with a dancey instrumental mash-up of John Denver’s West Virgina-referencing “Take Me Home, Country Roads” and “Hell Yeah” and offered their first live reading of both Miike Snow’s 2009 hit “Animal” and the new original “Lava.” Then, on Friday, they debuted another new tune, “Lane Change,” and leaned into the day’s “I Love The ‘90s” theme with mix of first-time covers—Seal’s “Crazy,” Ace of Base’s “Beautiful Life,” The Verve’s “Bitter Sweet Symphony” and Cher’s “Believe.” Though a weather delay temporarily interrupted their twist on the Rugrats theme mid-song, PPPP picked right back up where they left off when the music resumed, eventually weaving through “Doug Theme” and back into “Julia” to kick off the weekend’s longest, and latest-running, set.

Friday also included the band’s biggest bust out in their 17-year history. During the night’s encore, PPPP lighting designer Manny Newman stepped out from behind the rig to handle lead vocals on The Bloodhound Gang’s “The Bad Touch,” marking his first time singing with the band. PPPP had not performed the song since December 31, 2013.The Big Blitz horns also augmented Pigeons Playing Ping Pong on “Hell Yeah,” “Feed The Fire,” “Fantasy” and “F.U.” at various points throughout the multi-day gathering.

Over the past two weeks, Gov’t Mule has performed a series of gigs with Joe Bonamassa. These performances began at Wolf Trap in Vienna, VA on July 29 and the most recent was last night at the Rose Music Center at The Heights in Huber Heights, OH.

The collaborations began the very first night, when Bonamassa joined the Mule for “Statesboro Blues.” The five musicians collaborated on that song again last evening, so this seemed like a fine moment to share some videos that capture the musical highlights that have spanned the run thus far.

What is billed as the last North American BEAT Tour will kick off on October 9 in Santa Cruz. This series of shows will pull together the all-star cast of guitarists Adrian Belew and Steve Vai, bassist Tony Levin, along with drummer Terry Bozzio to present the music of King Crimson.

Belew notes, “For those of you who’ve seen BEAT live, it’s important to note we’ll be adding some material from ’90s Crim to our Fall tour. Along with the addition of superman drummer Terry Bozzio, we feel this will result in a new experience for our audience — and this may be your last chance to hear this band play these songs. We’re very excited to play for you again. Don’t miss it!”
