There may not be concerts, but music still gets loud this fall
LA TimesWhat was the last concert you saw? When was the last time you were one of the 12 people in a club, watching a thrilling new band that felt like a secret, or joined a chorus of thousands of new best friends for a festival singalong? But if there’s any silver lining to the shutdown of live music, it’s that artists, stuck at home like the rest of us, are recording and releasing music at a remarkably prolific clip. Fueled by quarantine-induced restlessness, by the protests roiling our country, by technologies that provide opportunity for lightning-strike fame or just by the need to make a buck, stars from YG to Bruce Springsteen to Blackpink to Ty Dolla Sign to the Deftones have mastered masked music-making and made exciting new albums. So while this fall may not bring starlit shows at the Hollywood Bowl or stanky rap moshpits in stadium parking lots, it does offer enough great new music to fill your playlists through the end of this miserable year and beyond.
