Fresh Friday: Ocean’s 8 In Theaters, Plus New Music From Khalid And Sugarland
Here’s some new stuff to listen to
Khalid has a new single, “This Way,” which appears on the Superfly movie soundtrack.
Hardcore rock fans will enjoy a new track from Thrice called “The Grey.” The same people might also appreciate that The Get Up Kids have a new, four song EP out today.
Country fans can look forward to new Sugarland and Dierks Bentley.
R&B artist Jorja Smith is getting some love from those in the know and could be one of this year’s need-to-know artists.
Plus, new stuff from Dave Matthews Band, Smashing Pumpkins, and Ne-Yo, all for a blast from the past.
Movies now out in theaters
Solo: A Star Wars Story may have officially kicked off the summer movie blockbuster season, but I think it’s safe to say Ocean’s 8 may be the more interesting film to start summer with. Ocean’s 11-13 were silly capers and hopefully Ocean’s 8 can be the same. These movies don’t need to take themselves too seriously, just provide a cohesive and fun story.
Sure, Won’t You Be My Neighbor is a documentary, opening in theaters this week, but don’t discount it. The movie has gotten rave initial reviews and, from the trailer, looks like a real tearjerker.
