Today’s music video is the Red Hot Chili Peppers doing Carpool Karaoke with James Corden:
And here’s a hit from 1984, Cruel Summer, by British trio Bananarama:
This is the theme song from the 1963 film Beach Party, starring Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon, which spawned a series of movie comedies aimed at teens and tapped into the new sub-genre of California surf music:
We started chatting and I found out Brett was a Canadian actor living in Los Angeles. He said it was great to return to Canada and see the country from a fresh perspective. I asked him if he had any big roles recently.
“I’m the husband of Jane the Virgin,” he said.
“Jane got married?” I asked, having watched the show but missed the wedding.
“Well, you’ll have to watch and find out,” he said, laughing. Oh, but there’s YouTube:
Jane the Virgin is a comedy/drama TV series based on a Venezuela telenovela Juana la Virgen. Jane is played by Gina Rodriguez, a young Catholic woman who is accidentally artificially inseminated during a mix-up examination by her doctor. Brett plays police detective Michael Cordero. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

One of the world’s best female guitarists, Orianthi Panagaris, recently dropped into Angel with Denise Salazar, the manager of Ori’s boyfriend and band mate Richie Sambora. Ori bought a dress for her sister and a Desigual tank top for herself — she posted this selfie (above) online of her wearing it the next day.
Ori & Richie have been recording a block from my store at the Bryan AdamsWarehouse Studio, produced by former Vancouver rocker Bob Rock (locals will recall his early days playing with Paul Hyde in Vancouver band The Payola$). Bob, who now lives in Hawaii, also recently produced the new recording by The Cult at Bryan Adams’ studio in Gastown.
Ori & Richie met in 2013 at a New Year’s party hosted by Alice Cooper — Ori was in Cooper’s band at the time. They’ll be playing Brazil this summer and will be touring with Bad Company in October. Sambora says he has no plans to rejoin Bon Jovi.
Here’s a recent live version of Ori and Richie playing a song that he co-wrote with Bon Jovi’s frontman, Wanted Dead or Alive:

Today’s music video is Hello by Vancouver band Hedley:
Every time I hear the song on the radio it reminds me of this Don Henley tune:
And finally, here’s a song by Mike Posner, I Took a Pill in Ibiza:
This is remix by Seeb, the Norwegian production duo of Simen Eriksrud and Espen Berg, which hit No. 1 in Europe last year. Here is the original version of the song:
Desigual was started on the Spanish island of Ibiza, where founder Thomas Meyer started selling T-shirts and fashioning jackets out of old denim jeans. Today, the Barcelona-based Desigual has been described as “edgy and complex.”
Cooler weather has moved in for a few days, but that’s okay because Angel has Desigual pants, sweaters and coats to ward off the chillier temperatures after recent summer-like sunshine, with the thermometer hitting 30 degrees inland.

And here’s another new dance tune, Can’t Stop the Feeling!, by Justine Timberlake:
The song, written for a kids movie called Trolls that won’t be released for six months, has been getting mixed reviews, with at least one critic saying “it sucks.” … Last night, I went to see the new Money Monster movie (Bruce is on the soundtrackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG8ZQkeZvzc) starring George Clooney & Julia Roberts — here they are doing Carpool Karaoke with Gwen Stefani & James Corden:
