Bon Iver on SABLE, fABLE's 'Visual Story,' Collaborating with Taylor Swift and Danielle Haim: Podcast
The post Bon Iver on SABLE, fABLE's 'Visual Story,' Collaborating with Taylor Swift and Danielle Haim: Podcast appeared first on Consequence.
Listen via: | | |
Justin Vernon joins Kyle Meredith With… to dive into SABLE, fABLE, Bon Iver's latest and most rootsy record in years. But don't call it a pivot — Vernon says it's more about clarity than change. 'Less mystery, more humanity,' he explains, crediting the song 'Everything Is Peaceful Love' as the emotional and sonic compass for an album that tracks a 'Man in black in a cabin, making the choice to change his life.' Listen above or wherever you get your podcasts.
Vernon discusses the cinematic quality and 'visual story' of the songs, the subconscious as his favorite collaborator, and how the album helped stitch him back together after a tough chapter. We also hear about the influence of Rickie Lee Jones ('The Horses' is his second favorite song of all time), why the band hasn't played 'Exile' without Taylor Swift ('It's her song'), and what it was like getting snowed in with Danielle Haim ('She's one of my favorite people ever') during recording.
We also dig back into Bon Iver lore to reflect on that cover of The Outfield's 'Your Love.' Vernon still considers it some of Bon Iver's best cover work: 'It was a big moment for us,' he says.

Questlove Pays Tribute to Sly Stone: 'Changes He Sparked While Here Will Echo Forever'
The post Questlove Pays Tribute to Sly Stone: 'Changes He Sparked While Here Will Echo Forever' appeared first on Consequence. Questlove has paid tribute to late funk pioneer Sly Stone. In an Instagram post, The Roots drummer and music historian reflected on the musician's legacy and vast accomplishments, while also sharing his personal experience working on the original documentary Sly Lives! (aka the Burden of Black Genius). 'Sly Stone, born Sylvester Stewart, left this earth today, but the changes he sparked while here will echo forever. From the moment his music reached me in the early 1970s, it became a part of my soul,' Questlove wrote. 'Sly was a giant — not just for his groundbreaking work with the Family Stone, but for the radical inclusivity and deep human truths he poured into every note. His songs weren't just about fighting injustice; they were about transforming the self to transform the world. He dared to be simple in the most complex ways — using childlike joy, wordless cries, and nursery rhyme cadences to express adult truths. His work looked straight at the brightest and darkest parts of life and demanded we do the same.' Questlove continued by acknowledging Stone's addiction battle and disappearance from the spotlight before stating that the artist 'lived long enough to outlast many of his disciples, to feel the ripples of his genius return through hip-hop samples, documentaries, and his memoir.' 'Still, none of that replaces the raw beauty of his original work,' Questlove added. 'As I reflect on his legacy, two lines haunt me: 'We deserve everything we get in this life' — a line from the Sly Lives! documentary that feels like both a warning and a manifestation — and, of course, the eternal cry of 'Everyday People': 'We got to live together!' Once idealistic, now I hear it as a command. Sly's music will likely speak to us even more now than it did then. Thank you, Sly. You will forever live.' Stone's death at the age of 82 was announced by his family earlier today, June 9th. It followed 'a prolonged battle' with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 'other underlying health issues.'

Sydney Sweeney Put On More Than 30 Pounds for Christy Martin Biopic
The post Sydney Sweeney Put On More Than 30 Pounds for Christy Martin Biopic appeared first on Consequence. For her role as pioneering female boxer Christy Martin in an upcoming biopic, Sydney Sweeney went full Christian Bale, quickly and radically transforming her body to best fit the part. 'I came onboard to play Christy, and I had about three and a half months of training,' Sweeney told W Magazine in a new cover story. 'I started eating. I weight-trained in the morning for an hour, kickboxed midday for about two hours, and then weight-trained again at night for an hour.' 'My body was completely different,' she continued. 'I didn't fit in any of my clothes. I'm usually a size 23 in jeans, and I was wearing a size 27. My boobs got bigger. And my butt got huge. It was crazy! I was like, 'Oh my god' … But it was amazing: I was so strong, like crazy strong.' According to W, Sweeney then dropped the weight in just seven weeks to reprise her role as Cassie in the new season of the hit HBO series Euphoria. A proper title and release date for the David Michôd-directed biopic have yet to be announced. Sweeney is also recently made headlines thanks to her unique, we'll call it, collaboration with Dr. Squatch soap.
