Ari Lennox is soul in its purest form—fearless, radiant, and singular. Hailing from Washington, D.C., the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter has built a career defined by emotional honesty, vocal excellence, and unwavering artistic integrity. Her latest album, Vacancy, recorded over three years and executive produced by longtime collaborator Elite, marks a confident new chapter in her artistry. The project finds Lennox embracing growth and self-assurance, upping the emotional depth and perspective that have defined her work. She steps fully into her “Soft Girl Era,” not as a reinvention, but as a refinement. Lennox co-wrote every track on the album, further cementing her reputation as a gifted songwriter with a distinctive artistic voice. The Guardian hails Vacancy “the R&B sophisticate’s loosest and most fun outing yet,” raving, “Lennox balances jazz-soaked tradition with flashes of unruly humor and a surefire viral hit.” Known for her powerhouse live performances, Lennox has captivated audiences from major festival stages to her sold-out 2023 headlining tour, which moved nearly 90,000 tickets worldwide. Recent highlights include multiple sold-out nights alongside Robert Glasper during his Blue Note residency in Los Angeles, and a featured performance at EBONY’s star-studded 80th Anniversary Power 100 Gala. Lennox first captured global attention with her 2019 debut Shea Butter Baby, a modern R&B classic which produced the platinum-certified title track and “BMO,” along with Gold-certified fan favorites “Whipped Cream” and “Up Late.” The album earned her a Grammy nomination and honors from the Soul Train Awards and NAACP Image Awards, firmly establishing her as one of contemporary R&B’s most compelling voices. In 2021, she reached new heights with the chart-topping single “Pressure,” her first solo entry on the Billboard Hot 100. Across each release—including her celebrated 2022 album age/sex/location—praised by Rolling Stone as an “R&B gem”—Lennox has distinguished herself as both a dynamic vocalist and a songwriter whose music resonates with clarity and truth.

The album is his first with The Texas Gentlemen, the all-star collective of players from the Lone Star State. The Texas Gentlemen are Ryan Ake (guitars), Daniel Creamer (piano, organ), Paul Grass (drums, percussion) and Scott Lee (bass); the record also features Richard Bowden (fiddle, mandolin) and Cody Huggins (electric guitar, acoustic guitar, pedal steel). Across the album’s 10 tracks, including standouts “The Lucky Ones,” “Twist the Knife,”  “Ballad of The Texas Gentlemen” and “Americana,” Bingham reflects on the highs and lows of an artist’s life on the road and his newfound sense of joy and hope, all framed by the unique genre-defying sound he and the band create together.

 Austin City Limits (ACL) is thrilled to present a worldwide livestream event featuring rock superstars Queens of the Stone Age on November 18 in an intimate and historic performance. The celebrated band returns to the ACL stage for the first time in a decade to showcase their remarkable new work, Alive in the Catacombs—conceived and recorded in the ancient tombs beneath Paris—for what promises to be one of the most singular and unforgettable tapings in ACL’s 50-plus-year history. 

Currently on a limited run of tour dates in support of Alive in the Catacombs, the Austin City Limits taping and livestream will transport that immersive Paris experience to a global audience for the first time. “If you’re ever going to be haunted, surrounded by several million dead people is the place,” Homme reflects. “I’ve never felt so welcome in my life.”

The full-set performance will be livestreamed worldwide on Tuesday, November 18, offering fans everywhere the chance to experience the acclaimed band’s powerhouse taping direct from  Austin, Texas.

Queens of the Stone Age—Josh Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen, Michael Shuman, Dean Fertita and Jon Theodore—continue to defy boundaries and expectations. Three decades into a groundbreaking career, the band ventured underground for Alive in the Catacombs, an innovative album-and-film pairing that reimagines their famously heavy catalog in an otherworldly setting. Recorded beneath Paris in centuries-old crypts, the project serves as both séance and statement—summoning everything that has made QOTSA a singular force in modern rock. 

In a musical landscape dominated by conformity and speed, QOTSA persist in carving out space for nuance, mystery, and soul. That creative ethos has fueled the band since their beloved 1998 self-titled debut—a blast of raw, inventive rock at a time when pop and boy bands ruled the airwaves. Their trailblazing discography includes the acclaimed Rated R (2000), the Grammy-nominated Songs for the Deaf (2003), the chart-topping …Like Clockwork (2013), the Mark Ronson-produced Villains (2017) and the international No. 1 In Times New Roman (2023). Known for their electrifying live performances, QOTSA have long held a reputation as one of the most powerhouse bands on earth. 

Frontman Josh Homme—formerly lead guitarist in Palm Springs stoner-rock pioneers Kyuss—has also fueled numerous acclaimed side projects, including The Desert Sessions, Eagles of Death Metal and Them Crooked Vultures (with Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl and Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones).
