Seven people, including three members of Gospel Music Hall of Fame quartet The Nelons, die in plane crash

Three members of the Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame quartet The Nelons were among seven people killed in a plane crash in Wyoming, according to a surviving member who was not on the plane.

The Nelons co-founder Kelly Nelon Clark, her husband Jason Clark and their daughter Amber Nelon Kistler died in an accident Friday afternoon, their daughter and fourth member of the band, Autumn Nelon Streetman, said in a statement.

“I want to thank you for the prayers that have already been offered to me, my husband, Jamie, our soon-to-be son, and Jason's parents, Dan and Linda Clark,” Nelon Streetman said. “Thank you all for your continued prayers, love and support as we get through the days ahead.”

According to Nelon Streetman, those killed in the tragic accident were Amber's husband Nathan Kistler, her assistant Melody Hodges, and pilot Larry Haney and his wife Melissa.

There were no survivors.

The Atlanta-based gospel music family was on the Gaither Homecoming Cruise to Alaska when the plane crashed, according to a statement from the cruise's sponsor, Gaither Music Group. The family's youngest daughter, Autumn, and her husband, Jamie Streetman, were not on the flight and only found out about the crash after they arrived safely in Seattle.

The couple was taken to a hotel where gospel singers Bill and Gloria Gaither, along with several other artists, gathered with Autumn and Jamie to pray, sing and mourn.

“Autumn and Jamie have rejoined Kelly's brother, Todd Neron, and his wife Rhonda as they navigate the difficult task ahead. Please keep them, and the Kistler, Haney and Melody Hodges families, in your prayers,” Gaither Music Group said.

The aircraft was identified as a Pilatus PC-12/47E, a single-engine turboprop, according to the Associated Press.

The accident happened around 1 p.m. north of Gillette in Campbell County, Wyoming, about 250 miles north of Cheyenne, according to a statement from Campbell County spokeswoman Leslie Perkins.

National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Keith Holloway said Saturday that the incident remains under investigation.

“The aircraft is in a secluded area and once we are in close proximity to the site we will begin documenting the scene and examining the aircraft,” Holloway said. “The aircraft will then be recovered and taken to a secure facility for further examination.”

Holloway told The Associated Press that a preliminary report on the crash is expected to be released within about 30 days, but a final report estimating what caused the crash could take up to two years to complete.

Nelons was inducted into the Gospel Music Association Hall of Fame in 2016 and is a 10-time GMA Dove Award winner, including multiple wins for Song of the Year and Album of the Year.

Kesha started writing music to 'deal with her emotions' – Music News

Kesha began writing music to “deal with her emotions.”

The singer-songwriter, who recently returned to the music industry with 'Joy Ride', spoke about what first got him interested in music.

“I started writing songs to deal with my emotions,” Kesha told Forbes in a recent interview, “because I'm a very sensitive person and I'm a Pisces triplet, these emotions come up very intensely and people can express them in different ways.”

The 37-year-old “TiK ToK” hitmaker explained that he expresses his “anger” by making music.

“When I'm angry, anybody can smash a car window, but when I'm angry, I take it to the studio and I'm surrounded by incredibly trustworthy people who help me turn my emotions into songs,” Kesha said.

“So that's become the way I perceive my life, and the great thing about writing music or making any kind of art is that it allows you to perceive something, hopefully in a safe way,” the artist continued. “Once you get out of your body and put it on paper or on a microphone, maybe the healing that you experience can help someone else heal, if you're willing to share it.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Kesha spoke passionately about the support she's received from LGBTQ+ fans.

“There would be no pop star without the queer community,” she told the magazine. “Justice is a big driving force in my life, and bullying is what infuriates me the most. I want to protect everyone until the day I die, and I will always fight for equal rights.”

Kesha left Dr. Luke's Kemosabe Records after a protracted legal battle and is now an independent artist, releasing Joy Ride on her own new label, Kesha Records.

A soaked orchestra plays the “Olympic Hymn” under a rain cover, sparking heated debate.

July 27, 2024 09:58 | Updated: July 27, 2024 10:04

Members of the French orchestra wore rain covers while performing at the Trocadero, but their instruments were left exposed to the elements.

The opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics was filled with classical and orchestral music.

Before the arrival of the Orchestre National de France, Dvorak's Symphony No. 9 was played on board the refugee athletes, a solo flute played La Marseillaise, Offenbach's cancan accompanied an epic ballet scene, and a mezzo-soprano sang Bizet's Habanera.

During the parade along the Seine, music by Saint-Saëns and Debussy was heard, as well as a rendition of Ravel's “Jouets d'Aqua” by pianist Alexander Kantorow, who played the melody on a rain-soaked piano.

“A sad piano in the pouring rain,” classical music publisher Ballenreiter commented about X.

One moment that sparked particularly fierce debate came when now-viral images emerged of the Orchestre National de France performing on a rain-soaked Trocadero next to the Eiffel Tower.

The performers, like many in the audience, were wearing plastic ponchos to weather a night of heavy rainfall in the French capital, but their stringed instruments were left exposed to the elements.

Luthier Christopher Jacoby called the photo “horrible” on Instagram, writing: “Um, no. This is good for business but this is awful. No.”

Star soprano Angela Gheorghiu, widely regarded as one of the greatest sopranos of all time, responded to the image on Instagram with a series of crying emojis.

Another wrote: “All I could think about was their instruments getting wet all night.”

Czech viola player Áneška Khropova added: “No… not even a cheap instrument. It still breaks my heart because it's an instrument with soul.”

At the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics, comedian Rowan Atkinson appeared with the London Symphony Orchestra “performing” Vangelis' Chariots of Fire, a wildly popular skit that has become part of British culture.

Years later, in an interview with Tim Lihollow on Classic FM, Atkinson admitted that the entire performance had been pre-recorded to protect the LSO's precious instruments from London's unpredictable weather.

“Everybody was lip-syncing that night,” Atkinson says, “and because we were playing outside, the London Symphony Orchestra couldn't risk their priceless instruments getting wet in the rain, so the only thing we could do was to pre-record everything.”

“And Simon Rattle was waving his arms around, just like me, and lip-syncing to the music.”

The same decision was probably made for last night's parade in Paris: French musicians were given cheap instruments to use in their pantomimes, but real violins, violas, cellos and basses were well covered in the country.

Harpist Melanie Laurent added: “For those who are concerned, of course they weren't performing on their usual personal instruments – they were given low-cost instruments at the last minute to suit the circumstances.”

“French musicians know how to rebel to get better conditions when they need to,” she joked.

The Orchestre National de France, along with the Radio France Choir, performed the Olympic Hymn, a moving choral cantata by Greek opera composer Spyridon Samaras and lyrics by Greek poet Kostis Palamas. The hymn was written for the first Summer Olympic Games in 1896 and is heard during the raising and lowering of the flag at the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

Busta Rhymes reacts 'emotional' to Hollywood Walk of Fame news – Music News

Busta Rhymes has had an “emotional” reaction to finding out he'll be receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame next year.

It was revealed last month that the hip-hop legend will be awarded a star in 2025 in recognition of his contributions to music.

Recounting his reaction to the news, Busta told Variety , “I'm not going to lie, it was probably one of the most honorable moments, the most emotional moments, the most dream come true moments. It was one of those things I thought I'd never get, really.”

The “Touch It” hitmaker pointed out that some musicians never receive any awards or accolades throughout their careers.

“There are incredible icons out there who have never won a Grammy, never won an MTV Award, never been a Hollywood star, never been in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,” he continued. “They may live to be 90 years old and never win an award. They may have been recording professionally for 70 years and never won an award.”

“For me, this is a really emotional moment because I'm at a stage in my life where my business, creativity, happiness and joy are on the rise. It's probably the best time of my life.”

The 52-year-old, whose real name is Trevor Smith, has been nominated 12 times for a Grammy Award but has never won one, nor has he won the Moonperson trophy at the MTV Video Music Awards 16 times.

The Class of 2025 also includes Keith Urban, Green Day, Prince, Jessica Chastain, Colin Farrell and Jane Fonda.

The date for Busta's star unveiling has yet to be announced.

Razorlight Explains Taylor Swift-Inspired Song – Music News

Razorlight's Johnny Borrell wrote his new song, “Taylor Swift = American Propaganda,” “in about 10 seconds.”

The 44-year-old rock singer insisted that despite the title, the song has nothing to do with the US pop star and was inspired by notes he found in a recording studio.

He told NME: “I went back to the Basque Country where I live and forgot about being a musician for five weeks. My girlfriend asked me, 'Are you writing anything?' and I just laughed. I hadn't even thought about a song until she reminded me. I picked up my guitar and that's when it all happened, to be honest. 'Taylor Swift' came to me in like 10 seconds.”

“When I'm recording, I always write down things people say. When I was in the studio finishing that song, I found a piece of paper that said, 'Taylor Swift = American soft propaganda.' If you want me to comment specifically on Taylor Swift, I don't know if I can because I don't know much about her.”

“Like I said, I don't know much about Taylor Swift, but I want to accept the reality of the creative process and stick with it. And with a lot of albums, people start to want to say something. And then once people start saying, 'Oh, this is a controversial record, what are people going to say about it?', everything starts to smooth out. What's the point in 2024?”

And he urged Taylor's fans not to take the title too seriously.

He said: “I want to stay true to myself. Every step of the way this album was made is a direct reflection of what was going on in the studio. That piece of paper was a joke that someone thought was funny at the time, so why not?”

Razorlight recently released “Planet Nowhere,” the first album recorded since 2008 with the group's classic lineup of Borrell, guitarist Bjorn Agren, drummer Andy Burrows and bassist Carl Dahlem.

Morad – I Lost My Smile Somewhere – Music News

Indonesian singer-songwriter Morad has been releasing a string of uniquely diverse singles since 2019. His blues-infused single “How” was nominated for Best Alternative Performance at the 2021 Indonesian Music Awards. The following year, his hugely popular, languid, soulful single “If Tomorrow I'm Losing You” racked up over 1 million streams on Spotify, a well-received interview with NME and the release of his debut studio album, “About A Woman.”

“I Lost My Smile Somewhere” is another Morad speciality. This latest single shares a common summer release with one of the greatest troubadours of all time. The first trailer for the Bob Dylan biopic “A Complete Unknown” was released this week, sparking a worldwide discussion about the historical impact of folk and country on modern music. When you think of the next generation of musicians inspired by musicians like Dylan, look no further than Morad. Citing Nick Drake, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young and Paolo Nutini as influences, Morad showcases his folk music side with a dash of sentimental pop lyrics.

A young and multitalented artist, Morad tries new styles and directions, using the warm tones and laid back vocals of Americana on “I Lost My Smile Somewhere.” Set in tempo by the constant thumping of a tambourine, Morad's intimate vocals are accompanied by hypnotic rhythm guitar and layers of strings, piano, percussion and a cathartic plea from Morad's backing vocals. We are stirred with him until a divine sounding organ leads us to a tranquil finale about 30 seconds before the end of this highly affecting track.

If you haven't heard his previous minimalist acoustic guitar single “Heartless Man,” you'll find this to be another labor of love that leans squarely into country-style heartache.

I Lost My Smile Somewhere is available now on all major streaming platforms.

Celine Dion performs at Olympics for first time since suffering from stiff person syndrome

Celine Dion is back on stage.

Two years after first going public with her stiff person syndrome diagnosis and cancelling all her performances, the singer made her comeback performance at the Olympic Games opening ceremony.

After the lighting of the Olympic torch, Dion belted out Edith Piaf's French ballad “L'amour” beneath the illuminated Eiffel Tower and Olympic logo. Wearing a glittering dress and accompanied only by piano, she hit her signature high notes. After the performance, Kelly Clarkson, co-host of NBC's Paris Opening Ceremony coverage, grew emotional while talking about the moment, praising Dion's performance and strength.

Following her performance, Dion posted on her Twitter handle X: “I was honored to perform at the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony tonight. I'm so happy to be back in one of my favorite cities! Most of all, I'm so excited to celebrate these incredible athletes, with their stories of sacrifice and determination, pain and perseverance. You've all been so focused on your dreams, and whether you bring home a medal or not, being here means your dreams have come true, I hope! You should all be so proud. We know how hard you've worked to be the best you can be. Stay focused and keep going. My heart is with you all!”

This was Dion's second time performing at the Olympics, having previously performed “The Power of the Dream” at the Atlanta Games in 1996. The Olympics' official Twitter account shared a video of Dion's first performance since her return to the Olympics.

The moment marked her first public performance since her diagnosis and a notable comeback for the singer. Dion first announced her diagnosis when she postponed her Las Vegas show until 2022 and then canceled the North American legs of her “Courage” world tour. She postponed her European dates to 2023 and 2024, but ultimately canceled those as well.

According to the Mayo Clinic, stiff-person syndrome is “an autoimmune disease of the nervous system” that “often causes progressive and severe muscle stiffness and spasms in the legs and back.” There is no cure for the condition.

In June, Dion said the condition made her feel “like someone was choking me” when she tried to sing. “It felt like someone was pushing on my larynx. When I was talking like that, I couldn't sing high or low. I would have spasms.”

“I wish I could find a miracle, find a cure through scientific research, but for now I have to live with the disease,” Dion told French Vogue in May. She also said she undergoes “exercise therapy, physical therapy, voice therapy” five days a week to limit the effects of the disease. “I train my toes, my knees, my calves, my fingers, my singing, my voice… For now I have to live with the disease and I have to stop questioning myself.”

The “My Heart Will Go On” singer recently revealed that she had noticed she was having difficulty controlling her voice since around 2008. But it took a pandemic-induced hiatus in 2020, after numerous concert tours and a Las Vegas performance, for doctors to finally carry out the necessary investigations to pinpoint her illness.
