Netflix’s hit drama The Crown, which follows the life of England’s Queen Elizabeth II and the royal family, has set a premiere date of November 9th for Season 5.

Season 5 will see Imelda Staunton playing Queen Elizabeth, taking over the role from Olivia Colman, who played the monarch in middle age. Also starring is Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip and Lesley Manville as Princess Margaret, with Dominic West as Prince Charles, Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana and Olivia Williams as Camilla Parker Bowles, and Jonny Lee Miller as Prime Minister John Major.

The new season will follow the royal family into the 90s, including the highly publicized divorce of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.

The series is expected to take viewers into the 21st century in Season 6, with the recent announcement that Rufus Kampa and Ed McVey have been cast to play Prince William next season, and Meg Bellamy will join the cast as his future wife Kate Middleton.

Following the recent death of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II, Peter Morgan, creator and writer of The Crown, shared that the series paused production on Season 6 out of respect as Britain entered a period of mourning over the death of the monarch. Any pauses or pivots made in production now are not expected to impact the upcoming season.

shutterstock_340291136-2

Metallica have announced that they will be leading the lineup for a Tribute Concert honoring Megaforce Records owner and founder Jonny Zazula and his wife Marsha, with a special show in Florida. Jonny died in February 2022 from complications of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIPD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and osteopenia. Marsha passed away from cancer in January 2021.

The special concert will take place at the Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, on, November 6th. A portion of the proceeds from this show will be donated in Jonny and Marsha’s name to MusiCares, a safety net supporting the health and welfare of the music community offering preventive, emergency, and recovery programs to musicians and industry professionals. Additionally, All Within My Hands will be supporting ‘Feeding South Florida’ with a donation following the show.

Metallica had this to say of the event:  “We’re excited to add one more night to the tour calendar this year with a special show . This night will be extra-special as we’ll be celebrating the life, legacy and achievements of Jonny and Marsha Zazula. Jonny gave us our first break in New York, released our first albums on his Megaforce Records label, and put us out on the road for our first real tour. With Marsha by his side, Jonny was a mentor, a manager, a label head, and a father figure to us all…. we would not be where we are today without the two of them. Sadly, we recently lost both Jonny and Marsha, just a little more than a year apart. We’ll be cooking up a special setlist for you full of songs from our days with Jonny and Marsha at Megaforce. Our main touring partner from that time, Raven, will be joining us to add to the celebration and bring back the memories. Head out to Hard Rock Live and celebrate two heavy metal pioneers and champions with us!”

Nancy Wilson releases Taylor Hawkins tribute song “Amigo Amiga”

shutterstock_1867583473-1

Heart co-founder Nancy Wilson has released “Amigo Amiga” the tribute song she wrote for her friend, the late Taylor Hawkins, a few days after his passing. Hawkins was found dead in his Bogota, Colombia hotel room on March 25th while the Foo Fighters were on tour in South America.

The song and new lyric video, featuring Nancy, are available now, with all proceeds from the release of the single benefiting the Recording Academy’s MusiCares.  Wilson explains of the song: “The night we heard about losing Taylor I started writing the song. I heard myself in tears saying ‘too soon too soon’ which became a refrain in the song. I spent quite a few sleepless nights trying to express it all. He was a wonderful friend and we always had funny pet names for each other like Amigo and Amiga as well as Luv and Dahling. I sang on his great solo album Get the Money at his home studio and later he returned the favor and played drums on my solo album…t is such a painful loss — but it also feels like Taylor has galvanized and re-energized Rock and Roll with so many of his musician friends and fans coming together — it’s a new renaissance Taylor and the Foo family have gifted us all.”

Take a look at the lyric video for “Amigo Amiga” – here.  At the request of the Foo Fighters, Wilson performed the track at the tribute concert for Hawkins at The Forum in Inglewood, CA.

shutterstock_1653006115

Sam Smith has teamed up with Kim Petras on “Unholy”, the lead single from Smith’s fourth studio album. The teaser for “Unholy” went viral prior to its official release, with over 26 million views, and over 300K creates on TikTok.  You can check out the lyric video for “Unholy” – here.

Smith says of the track: “‘Unholy’ was made in Jamaica and was one of the most glorious creative moments I’ve ever had as an artist. I’ve never had so much fun making a record. It was so cathartic and freeing to experiment like this and throw out the rule book. It has also been an honor to work with Kim and get to witness her brilliance. This song is about liberating oneself from the clutches of others’ secrets…”

Petras added: “I am such a big fan of Sam. It is cool to meet another artist who is a really good writer and has a vision that’s their own. I had the best time in the studio with them. They really believed in me and encouraged me to be totally myself. I feel so honored that they chose me to be on this song.”

Kentucky school shooter involved in 1997 incident sentenced to spend life in prison

shutterstock_508557775

On Monday, the Kentucky Parole Board ruled that 39-year-old Michael Carneal, the man convicted in the 1997 school shooting that took the life of three students, should remain in prison for the rest of his life. The unanimous ruling from the seven-member board means that Carneal will never be eligible for parole consideration again.

Carneal was 14 years old when he injured five people along with killing three in the shooting at Heath High School in Paducah, Kentucky. He testified to two members of the board last week that he still “heard voices” in his head, similar to the ones that led to him opening fire on the high school on Dec. 1, 1997.  However at last week’s hearing, Carneal said while he knew right from wrong when he committed the shootings, he blamed his mental health condition for his actions.

Carneal had served nearly 25 years before his last parole hearing. The living victims of the shooting, including one who was paralyzed, testified in front of the board last week as well. Parole Board Chair Ladeidra Jones told Carneal that due to the seriousness of the crime” and because lives were taken, “it is the decision of the parole board that you will serve out your sentence.”

The Ohio State Highway Patrol confirmed the news, nothing that a female passenger was also with Garrett in the vehicle. Garrett was transported to Cleveland Clinic Akron General Medical Center, and his female companion was transported to Cleveland Clinic Medina Hospital.
