Jem Aswad Senior Music Editor Emmylou Harris, Sheryl Crow, Amy Grant, Kacey Musgraves, Jason Isbell, Maren Morris, Margo Price, Mickey Guyton, Kelsea Ballerini and dozens of other top Nashville musicians are calling for the Tennessee General Assembly to pass “common sense gun safety legislation” before lawmakers end their session a few days from now, according to a report in the Tennessean. (A complete list of signees is below.) The letter calls for extreme risk protection laws and legislation strengthening requirements around secure storage of firearms. The letter was drafted after of the deadly Covenant School shooting last month, in which three adults and three nine-year-old children were killed. It was the 19 th shooting at a school or university in 2023 alone — one of hundreds of mass shootings in a country with a government that, largely due to Republican obstruction, refuses to pass more-thorough gun-control laws.
Review: Rave pioneers Orbital deliver storming Hacienda infused set
31.03.2023 - 13:27 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk

As 9pm approached in the old church, tonight's congregation were ready for a different type of worship. Orbital's trademark head torch glasses came into view and the siblings made their way onto a huge raised platform.

Flanked by a web of mixing desks, keyboards and laptops, Phil, barefoot, and Paul, resplendent in a pink suit, Thursday night's sold out crowd were ready for a party worthy of the weekend. The first track transported us back to a time when Orbital's music was far more underground, and the thought of performing it in what used to be a chapel may have seemed highly unlikely.
"Saturday night in south London, hundreds of young people are gathering for the latest craze, an acid house party in a disused warehouse," a sample from a news report stated, before opening track Smiley began. The classic emblem of that time, the yellow smiley face, formed part of a trippy video montage on a huge screen behind duo's stage set up.
The siblings' set drew heavily on the new record, with a particular highlight being Dirty Rat,
