The first weekend for Coachella happened this week. No Doubt officially reunited Saturday night during day two of the festival. It’s been nine years since the original members of the 90s band played together, and they did an 80-minute set, performing a nostalgic show that fans called “absolutely phenomenal,” “so iconic” and “one of the best performances of the year” on social media. At one point, No Doubt was joined by surprise guest Olivia Rodrigo who rocked an, “I ❤️ ND” tank top – for a rendition of “Bathwater,” followed by 54-year-old Stefani performing push-ups effortlessly just moments before belting out “Just a Girl” – LINK

Slash cold-called Chris Stapleton and asked him to be on his new album that is dedicated to classic blues songs. Slash had to have Stapleton on his cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Oh Well.” “His singing cadence and that drawl that he has for this particular song, in my mind’s eye, it sounded perfect,” Slash, said. After they recorded the track, it came out exactly how Slash imagined it would. “I think it was one of the best ideas I’ve had in recent memory, was to have him sing that song,” he said. Slash’s new album, Orgy of the Damned, arrives on May 17.
