Widely recognized as one of the best live bands in the world, Muse Will Of The People world tour will be no exception. The North American arena tour will kick off in Chicago, running its two month course throughout multiple cities including stops in Minneapolis, Toronto, New York, Los Angeles, and more.

Entirely self-produced by Muse, the 10-track ‘Will of the People’ album has been previewed by ‘Won’t Stand Down’, ‘Compliance’, the title track ‘Will Of The People’ and ‘Kill Or Be Killed’. Matching the excellence and versatility of these already released songs, ‘Liberation’ echoes glam rock in the age of disinformation. Plus, check out tour dates!

Throughout his decades-long career, Sorum has been revered as the drummer providing the driving beat for countless legendary rock bands, including Guns N’ Roses, Velvet Revolver, and The Cult. In 1990, Guns N’ Roses’ lead guitarist Slash asked Sorum to take over as drummer for the band from then to 1997.

The song’s visceral intensity inspired a huge reaction from fans (after the band performed ‘Kill Or Be Killed’ at various festivals this Summer), who went on to swarm the band’s social media with calls for it to be released. Responding to the overwhelming “will of the people”, Muse decided to share ‘Kill Or Be Killed’ ahead of the album release.

Winter in New York City is not known for being particularly steamy (though the unseasonably mild weather this year gives one reason to pause), but there is always Complexions Contemporary Ballet's season at the Joyce Theater to turn up the heat to a feverish, sweltering boiling point! For the 26th season, the company revived recent seminal works -- Bach 25 and Woke -- alongside favorites spanning from 1994 to a brand new solo in Essential Parts, which acted as a 'Greatest Hits' compilation for the ever-evolving, always revolutionary dance troupe. This year also marked the World Premiere of their latest exploration of the full canon of a particular musician's oeuvre -- Love Rocks featuring the music of the iconic Grammy-winning rockstar, Lenny Kravitz. For patrons unable to attend all programs, FOMO (fear of missing out) syndrome is understandable, but for those who are highly familiar with the group's work or only getting their first taste, Program C -- which featured the latter two mentioned -- was the most delectable sampling of Complexions offerings old and new. The fascinating thing about such juxtapositions is that, in seeing the latest creations from 2020 side-by-side with choreography premiered in the early 1990s, it is remarkable to note how the level of innovation, depth of emotion and current relevance remains the same. It's a reminder that timeliness and timelessness can coexist, given the right mediums and masters. The genius of legendary Co-Founders, Co-Artistic Directors Desmond Richard and Dwight Rhoden (also the Principal Choreographer) cannot be underestimated. Indeed, it has not. They have both achieved phenomenal success and longevity, been lauded as trailblazers and received numerous accolades from peers, critics and audiences alike since they burst on the dance scene. It's no wonder that they have utilized the music of David Bowie, Stevie Wonder, Kendrick Lamar and Lenny Kravitz to tell their stories through bodies in motion -- they are rockstars themselves!
