A group of people calling themselves “Never Trump” voters have suddenly thrown their support behind the former president following his historic conviction last week.

The Free Press spoke with several voters across the country whose opinions were heavily influenced by the conviction of former President Trump in a New York trial.

Sean Maguire, a Los Angeles-based venture capitalist and former Hillary Clinton campaign donor, declared on social media that he had donated $300,000 to the Trump campaign within an hour of the verdict, and wrote in an essay that he was “outraged” by “the double standards and legal wars that Trump has faced.”

He told the Free Press, “People were saying that Donald Trump would bring about the end of democracy, but it turns out it was the Democrats, not the Republicans, who escalated their legal war tactics. So for now I think Republicans are less of a danger to democracy than Democrats.”

Adam Mortara, a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School, similarly donated $3,300 to the Trump campaign after not voting in the 2020 presidential election and running against Trump in the 2016 Republican primary, hoping that a Trump victory would have a “deterrent effect” on using the legal system as a weapon against political opponents.

“The reason I've come off the sidelines is that if he doesn't win, and doesn't win by a significant margin, it justifies this kind of weaponization of the justice system in the future,” Mortara told the Free Press. “Before, I would have said that if Joe Biden wins the election, it's not a danger to America. But now, I think it is, in some ways.”

Biden scoffs at idea he's 'pulling strings' in Trump prosecution: 'I didn't know I had that much power'

Kate Nitti, a New Jersey marketing consultant described as a “lifelong Democrat,” turned her back on the party after she began living in New York City after the COVID-19 lockdown, voting for a Republican for the first time in the 2021 mayoral election and then supporting Republican candidate Lee Zeldin in the 2022 gubernatorial race.

He previously supported the candidacy of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., but after the conviction he may support Trump.

“I'm no fan of Trump, but I have a lot of issues with the way Democrats have bent the law and used prosecutorial powers in the name of 'protecting democracy' for the past four years,” Nitti said. “I still consider myself a liberal, but I don't think the Biden Democrats reflect what liberalism once meant.”

Jack McGuire, a travel consultant in Texas who voted for Clinton in 2016 but voted for neither Trump nor Biden in 2020, said the trial had “energized” him.

“What's happened shows corruption and deceit on every level and a willingness to use whatever means necessary to maintain power. I've completely stepped up and said enough is enough. I stand fully with the MAGA people because this has to end,” McGuire told the Free Press.

Emery Barter, a California-based guitar teacher and recording engineer, is another “lifelong Democrat” who campaigned for Clinton in 2016 and voted for Biden in 2020, but the “ultra-progressive policies” implemented in his hometown of Oakland have made him regret his support for the Democratic Party and question the media's reporting of the political situation.

“I used to trust the media, but now I feel like they're no longer reporting the truth. I feel like it's all completely fabricated,” Barter said.

Barter added that Trump is not “scared” of him and that “that narrative is just overused.”

“The idea that the threat to our democracy is so great that we must sacrifice democracy in order to thwart this threat through law enforcement is an all-consuming idea that will not be rewarded,” Barter said, adding that “if you don't pay attention and you just check the bluest box, you're actually voting for people who are no longer interested in fulfilling the core functions.”

Daniel Kotzin, a stay-at-home husband of former Levi Strauss & Co. executive Jennifer Say, voted for Obama twice and Clinton in 2016. He considered voting for Trump in 2020 because of his criticism of COVID-19 lockdowns, but ultimately supported the Libertarian Party candidate because of the then-president's promotion of vaccinations. But now he thinks Trump is the “best option.”

“Persecuting Trump was a decision for me because I thought maybe he was different. He'd mix dirt in the gears. They hate him too much. They're going after him so aggressively and so relentlessly that I want to support him. And I can't be the only one. It's just too bad,” Kotzin told the Free Press.

“I don't want Democrats right now. I don't want to be ruled by experts. I don't want better experts. We don't need experts. Trump just wants to break things and he doesn't listen to anything anybody has to say. I don't think that's necessarily a long-term solution. That's what we need right now,” he added.

Maine Senator Eric Blakey, who describes himself as a “Ron Paul Republican,” supported Libertarian Party candidates in the past two elections but decided to back Trump after an “affair” with RFK Jr., supporting the “principle” that “the people choose their president” and donating to Trump's campaign after his conviction.

“Democrats are not defending democracy,” Blakey said. “They're afraid that people won't vote for them when presented with the democratic choice. Democracy is about the people deciding.”

Shania Twain laughed off a simple mistake she made onstage during her Las Vegas show.

The 58-year-old country music star appeared to forget which hand he was holding the microphone in while singing “(If You're Not in It for Love) I'm Outta Here!” Twain was holding the microphone in one hand and holding a drumstick prop up to his mouth while attempting to sing the lyrics before realizing his mistake.

“Oh my gosh, that was funny,” she told Mike after the gaffe.

A fan in the crowd captured the moment on video.

“I'm so glad someone captured this moment. Made me laugh again,” Twain captioned a fan video he shared to Instagram.

People in the comment section were impressed because the moment proved that the “You're Still The One” singer wasn't lip syncing.

“You can tell she's really singing live,” one user commented.

“Proof she's not lip syncing,” another added.

“The way you continued this perfectly is amazing and purely capturing the moment,” one comment read.

Twain is currently performing in Las Vegas as part of Planet Hollywood's resident show “Come On Over.”

Prior to the start of Twain's performance, she demonstrated her pre-show routine of going on an all-liquid diet.

“If I eat anything solid a few hours before a show, I have to burp,” Twain previously told People magazine. “It's a nightmare because I have to burp and sing at the same time, and it's distracting in itself. So on show days, I try not to eat any solid food and only drink liquids until the show is over.”

Twain also revealed that he has developed an intense exercise routine, much like an athlete.

“I'm an athlete, I have to breathe and keep myself in shape,” she told The Sun. “I have to pace everything.”

Frank Carter and the Sex Pistols' Paul Cook, Glen Matlock and Steve Jones will perform their iconic album 'Never Mind the Bitch' in its entirety in a bid to save legendary London music venue Bush Hall.

The 40-year-old Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes frontman will take over as lead singer for two fundraising shows on August 13th and 14th, replacing 68-year-old singer Johnny Rotten/John Lydon, who is not on good terms with his former bandmates.

Proceeds from tickets to the 1977 punk rock landmark record show will go towards preserving the independent venue.

Tickets go on sale this Wednesday (05.06.24) at www.livenation.co.uk/artist-frank-carter-and-sex-pistols-1501314 .

Drummer Paul, 67, and guitarist Steve, 68, grew up watching concerts at the venue, while Frank played his debut gig with his former group Pure Love at Bush Hall in 2012.

Frank and Steve became friends when Frank was interviewed on Steve's radio show in 2008.

Frank said: “It was fun from start to finish. When the Sex Pistols call, we answer. We're very excited to be a part of it.”

Paul commented: “I'm doing a benefit concert for Bush Hall with the famous Frank Carter. We'll be playing Pistols songs. They need support and funds and I thought this concert would be the perfect way to help save the hall from closure. It's my local venue – I grew up in Shepherd's Bush and still live around there. It would be a real shame to see it go and we want to keep it going, so please come to the concert!”

“If everything goes wrong, it's Paul's fault,” Steve quipped.

Bassist Glen Matlock, 67, added: “I tend to agree with Steve.

“Small music venues are the lifeblood of new music. These intimate spaces are where raw talent has a chance to shine, where bands can really connect with their audiences, and where the spirit of live music truly thrives. So we need to keep these places alive.”

Last year, Bush Hall saw a 24.5 percent drop in live music bookings.

The funds raised will be used to “improve internal facilities and support emerging artists through a revitalisation of the Bush Hall Presents programme”.

Isle of Wight Festival promoter John Giddings said: “Without treasured music venues like Bush Hall, we wouldn't have the headliners we have today. Bush Hall is where artists gain experience and hone their craft. It's vital that venues like this continue to exist if the music industry is to thrive and evolve – this is non-negotiable. We'd like to thank The Sex Pistols and Frank Carter for collaborating with us – it's sure to be a fantastic night.”

Rita Ora has teased details about her next studio album, but some fans may be disappointed.

The 33-year-old singer released a new single, “Ask & You Shall Receive,” last week, raising hopes that a new album will be released soon.

However, Star admitted to The Sun that a full-length release could be at least six months away, explaining: “The album is coming along well, we're taking it song by song to be honest.”

“I don't know if it'll be done this year, but the great thing about my label (BMG) is that they have the time and they're really chill.”

Her last album, “You and I,” was released last year with songs inspired by her planned 2022 wedding to Hollywood director Taika Waititi (48) and their successful marriage.

When asked if her next album would also focus on her marriage, Rita told the magazine, “I'm kind of bored with it at the moment… I want to move forward with music and have fun and do things that make me feel good. If it doesn't make me feel good, I'm not doing it, and I find that very liberating.”

Rita has been releasing music since 2012 and has had four number one singles, including her debut album, Ora, which topped the UK charts.

Her debut album was released in 2012, the sequel, Phoenix, came out in 2018, and her third album was finally released last year, so fans have had to wait years for an album.

Blossoms' new music video stars Rick Astley and is based on the viral true story of a giant fibreglass gorilla being stolen from a garden centre.

The band have announced details of their long-awaited fifth studio album, “Gary,” named after the primate sculpture that inspired the video, as well as revealing upcoming promotional details.

Singer Tom Ogden, 31, said: “This video was directed by myself and my brother Ewan Ogden and is a follow-up to our last video.”

“The song is based on a true story I heard on the radio last year: Gary, an eight foot fibreglass gorilla, was stolen from Reynard Garden Centre in Carluke, Scotland.

“Gardening centre owner Andrew Scott is played by Rick Astley, who recreates the storyline on screen in which the band kidnap Gary.

“This video was great fun to make and was again shot on 16mm film around Stockport, the Peak District and Derbyshire.

“The song itself is the centerpiece of the album, and after considering many different titles, we kept coming back to Gary. In the end, Gary was the only one that stuck.”

The giant primate statue of Gary was stolen from a garden centre in Lanarkshire in 2023 and returned to its owner, Andrew, a year later.

The Blossoms' video for “Gary” was directed by Tom and his brother Ewan, and features the return of their friend Rick, 58, who made a cameo appearance in the band's previous video, “What Can I Say After I'm Sorry?”, in the promotional video.

The new Blossoms album is due for release on September 20th and will be produced by the band's regular collaborators James Skelly of The Coral and Jungle's Josh Lloyd Watson, who produced “What Can I Say After I'm Sorry?” and “Nightclub.”

Singer CMAT (Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson), 28, also co-wrote two songs on the album, “I Like Your Look” and “Why Do I Give You the Worst of Me?”

Tom adds: “At its core, the album is the five of us recording live together in the same room for the first time in years.

“We wanted to capture the energy that occurs when five friends decide to form a band and make music together.

“On this album, I collaborated more than ever before, working with long-time collaborator James Skelly and also bringing in Josh and CMAT.

“We rented an AirBnB on the seafront in Anglesey and holed up with Ciara for a songwriting session and it was one of the most inspiring few days we've spent as a band.

“During the songwriting process, I was listening to a lot of Bowie, Blondie and Hall & Oates.”

Other standout tracks on the album include ‘Big Star’ and ‘Mothers’, which Tom says were also inspired by true stories: “The tracks on the album themselves are based on different stories, mostly from personal experiences.

“In Big Star, after meeting a famous music journalist at the Chateau Marmont, I thought about going up to him and introducing myself, but my embarrassment got the better of me, so I refrained.

“'I Like Your Look' pays homage to Blondie's 'Rapture' and winks at Joan Baez's 'Time Rag,' with lyrics that explore a tongue-in-cheek approach to high fashion.”

“'Mothers' is a celebration of the friendship between me and (bandmate) Joe (Donovan) and references the fact that our mothers were friends in the '80s.”

Blossoms will open for Tom Grennan, 28, at Gunnersbury Park on August 10 and will then play festival dates including the Isle of Wight and TRSNMT before playing the band's biggest headline show to date at Wythenshawe Park in Manchester on Sunday August 25.

Since forming in 2013, Blossoms has enjoyed widespread success and acclaim.

Their 2016 debut, Blossoms, topped the album chart for two consecutive weeks and earned the band Brit and Mercury Prize nominations, while 2018's Cool Like You reached No. 4 in the UK album chart.

The Pixies' new double A-side single is inspired by movie zombie attacks and sci-fi “monster epic” vibes.

The group's album includes the songs “You're So Impatient” and “Que Sera, Sera”, both of which premiered on Steve Lamacq's BBC Radio 6 Music show.

“The Pixies create an eerie, cinematic portrait of American pop culture,” reads the press release for their new AA side release, released on Monday (03.06.24).

“You're So Impatient” has been described as a “fierce punk song” and “an explosive two minutes and nine seconds of zombie attack at a shopping mall.”

The release added that the Pixies “tell the 1950s classic 'Que Sera Sera' as a dark folk tale, retelling it through the lens of a sci-fi monster epic.”

The song was originally recorded as the soundtrack for the American television show “From”.

A limited edition 7-inch single containing these songs will be released on July 19th.

Black Francis, 59, the band's songwriter and guitarist, whose real name is Charles Michael Kittredge Thompson IV, said of the song “You're So Impatient”: “'You're So Impatient' is a suburban culture moment with a slightly comedic twist. There's a guy and a girl and they're having a love affair, but it's set in a shopping mall.”

“Shopping malls are sleazy, but they're also the setting for zombie and rock 'n' roll horror movies.”

This year has been billed as a landmark year for Pixies, as it marks 35 years since their breakthrough platinum album, Doolittle, catapulted the band into the UK Top 20.

It's been 20 years since their acclaimed reunion at Coachella.

The Pixies' new AA-side single comes amid a packed tour schedule that sees them play around 70 live shows around the world through 2024.

They've just kicked off a North American tour alongside Modest Mouse and Cat Power, and will return to the UK in August for sold-out headline shows including the Glasgow Academy and Halifax's Piece Hall.

The shows will mark Pixies' second visit to the UK this year, following a string of sold-out shows to celebrate the release of their Bossa Nova and Trompe le Monde albums, including three nights at London's Kentish Town Form.

In the old days, when musical content mattered and music itself wasn't just “content,” Matt Boulter would have been held in the same esteem as the likes of Nick Drake, Al Stewart, and Ralph McTell.
He's been around for a long time, is a Radio 2 and Uncut favourite, has a devoted fanbase and has just released his fourth album in 12 years (his last, Clifftown, was released in 2020). He's also collaborated with the likes of Simone Felice Group, The Duke and the King, Emily Portman's Coracle Band, Blue Rose Chord, The Owl Service & John Bowden's Remnant Kings and one of my favourite Southend bands, Lucky Strike.
The line-up on this album is: MG Boulter – vocals, guitar, pedals, lap steel guitar, percussion, Harriet Bradshaw – vocals, cello, percussion, Lucy Farrell – vocals, sawtooth, percussion, Neil McSweeney – guitar, bass, vocals, Tom Lenthall – piano, Helen Bell – violin, viola, Jenny Sturgeon – vocals and keyboards on “Talk to Me of Water”.

Boulter is a brilliant songwriter who writes and sings songs about real and imagined suburban and small town life, songs about thwarted opportunities and the mundane realities of modern day living, rooted in a world of rumour, mystery, urban legend and the magical thinking we all use to shape our lives, expectations and hopes.

He mixes UFO sightings with adolescent partying, the escapism of fishing with a yearning for a better life somewhere else, etc. The songs on “Days of Shaking” allude to UFO sightings, possible cave gods, and visits from the dead in dreams, all adding to a rich texture of belief in people's wants, needs, and ultimately, hopes.

His music is full of softness and tenderness, exposing and reflecting, embracing the weaknesses and shortcomings in us all. He sings high, clear, but often languidly, over beautifully produced, tender acoustic music with plenty of strings. You can get so lost in a song that by the end, you'll have memorized every note and word, even if it means catching your breath.

This is an important album, it shows that there are still real songwriters out there, real musicians who create images with their lyrics.
I don't know if this society deserves Mr. MG Boulter, but I am very happy that he is still around to shake his fist at the peddlers of “content.”

Sabrina Carpenter 'Short and Sweet': release date, tracklist, theories and news about her new album. Photo: Island, Joe Hale/Redferns

Sam Prince

Here's what Sabrina Carpenter had to say about her new album, “Short N' Sweet,” and all the vinyl editions.

She's a singer so she works late hours. Sabrina Carpenter's new album “Short n' Sweet” is coming out, but when will it be released?

After years of hard work, Sabrina Carpenter has officially achieved main pop girl status. Her latest album, “Emails I Can't Send,” was met with critical acclaim and has since spawned two chart-topping hits, “Nonsense” and “Feather.” Not to mention, Sabrina's single “Espresso” became her first top 10 hit in the U.S. and also became a #1 single in the UK. It's never been a better time for Carpenter.

Sabrina has now announced her sixth studio album, Short n' Sweet. Here's everything we know about the new project, including the release date, tracklist, collaborators, and the upcoming music she's teased so far.

Is Sabrina Carpenter releasing a new album?

When will Sabrina Carpenter's “Short and Sweet” be released?

Sabrina Carpenter will release “Short & Sweet” on August 23. Taking to Instagram on June 3, Sabrina shared the cover art and wrote, “'Short & Sweet' my new album coming out August 23rd!!!! 💋 This project is very special to me and I hope it's special for all of you too. You can pre-order it now!”

She also teased, “There'll be a surprise on Thursday night, so keep an eye out!”

Sabrina has been quietly pursuing her music career since 2023. Speaking to Cosmopolitan in March, she said, “I'm trying to process this experience before I move on to the next thing… I've been working on my next thing for a while.”

She added: “I'm starting to feel like the songs I'm singing have grown beyond measure, which is always an exciting feeling because it means the next chapter is right around the corner.”

Will Sabrina release “Short n' Sweet” on vinyl?

You can currently order the album on vinyl, CD and cassette from Sabrina's official store. At the moment, only one vinyl edition and one picture disc are available. The vinyl is a striking blue, and the picture disc features a photo of Sabrina in a pink slip with lipstick kisses across the back.

Sabrina is also selling a range of exclusive “Short n' Sweet” merchandise on her website, including short-sleeve t-shirts, long-sleeve t-shirts and hoodies.

At this time, it is not possible to pre-order a physical copy of the album elsewhere, but we will let you know when it becomes available.

What is the track listing for Sabrina Carpenter's “Short n' Sweet”?

As of now, Sabrina Carpenter's sixth album, Short and Sweet, has no officially announced tracks aside from the smash hit “Espresso,” but Sabrina has hinted at a surprise for “Thursday Night,” so more songs could be on the way soon.

Sabrina didn't reveal the tracklist for Emails I Can't Send until a week before its release, so it may be a while before we see her next song.

Who did Sabrina Carpenter star alongside in Short and Sweet?

Sabrina co-wrote “Espresso” with longtime collaborators Amy Allen, Steph Jones and Julian Bunetta, who have previously worked together on songs like “Nunsense,” “Feather” and “Vicious,” and we suspect all three artists will be involved in the project.

Sabrina has yet to say anything about other collaborators on the album, but she was spotted back in the studio with Amy Allen and Julia Michaels (Because I Liked a Boy), and Dua Lipa and Selena Gomez producer Ian Kirkpatrick was also there.

Additionally, fans have speculated that Jack Antonoff may be featured on the LP after he shared a meme featuring Sabrina and other artists he's worked with before (Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey). Sabrina has also recently appeared on his Instagram.

Meanwhile, Sabrina was recently spotted with Billie Eilish's brother, producer Finneas, who could be working with her as well.

Speaking about the vibe of her future music, Sabrina said in an interview, “I feel a lot more free and excited about what I'm making now because I've realised that genre isn't necessarily the most important thing. It's about honesty and authenticity and what I'm drawn to.”

She continued, “There were a lot of genres on my last album and I want to continue that while making music.”

Kate Hudson explained that stress was the reason she delayed her music career.

The 45-year-old Oscar nominee is best known for her acting career, but last month she released her debut album, titled “Glorious.”

The star, whose parents are actress Goldie Hawn and musician Bill Hudson, reflected on why she hesitated to pursue a musical career, saying that if she had released music in her 20s and it had failed, she would have been devastated.

She told Variety: “Rejection is generally tolerable. When you're an adult and you're trying to follow in your family's footsteps — and it's big footsteps — I don't think people realise how much strength it takes to get there. Within the industry, it can feel like you're under a microscope internally…”

“I don't know if it's the way our parents raised us or if our family is so close-knit or how happy we are in real life, but we don't value noise… We really value work. That's how we were raised and it's given us a very tough mentality for the acting world.”

She added, “But with music, I feel like I'm just so vulnerable, and if I was doing this in my late 20s, it would've been really hard for me to not be swayed by what people said. But at this age, and where I'm at in my life, I'm not afraid of rejection anymore. I just want to share it.”
