Brazil Concert Band kicks off summer concerts over the weekend
BRAZIL, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — The Brazil Concert Band held their first performance of the season over the weekend.
The Brazil band has roots dating back all the way to 1858.
One band member has been in the local concert band playing the French horn for over 50 years.
'I've always loved music and it's kind of a family thing,' said longtime band member Darla Scherb. 'My dad was in the band for years and years and I wanted to join. We have some really great crowds here.'
The Brazil Concert Band plays all throughout the summer and will wrap up at the end of August.

The ‘Taylor's Version' Era Is Over. Swifties Are Relieved.
When Taylor Swift announced last week that she bought her early master recordings from Shamrock Capital Advisors, gaining control of her first six albums, she was quick to anticipate a question from her fans. 'I know, I know. What about Rep TV?' Swift wrote on her website, referring to the shorthand for 'Reputation (Taylor's Version),' the anticipated rerelease of her sixth studio album. 'Full transparency: I haven't even re-recorded a quarter of it.'

TikTok gives artists new tools to track and boost viral songs
TikTok has boosted the careers of numerous musicians, thanks to their songs—both new and old—going viral. The latest example is Connie Francis' 1962 hit Pretty Little Baby, which is currently inescapable across For You pages. Now, TikTok is making it even easier for artists to capitalize on viral moments. The platform has rolled out its music insights tool globally, following a limited beta launch that was quietly tested with a select group of artists two months ago. TikTok for Artists offers musicians daily updates on how their songs are being used and which tracks are generating the most engagement. Metrics include the number of views, posts, and creator interactions per song, as well as insights into each post's performance. Artists also gain access to demographic data about their followers, such as age, language, and self-identified gender. 'All tiers of artists will gain insights on TikTok that they can use to take their careers to a whole new level,' said Tracy Gardner, TikTok's global head of music business development, in a statement. 'We built the platform to give artists transparent access to useful, actionable data about their music and their fans, to help them better engage with the TikTok community and supercharge their careers both on and off the platform.' One early tester, Cyril Riley, said: 'My team and I rely on TikTok for Artists daily, sometimes even hourly. In such a rapidly evolving industry, it's crucial for us to consistently monitor and review the analytics of my account.' Another musician, Jordan Adetunji, called it a 'game changer.' Alongside the analytics tool, TikTok has launched a pre-release feature that lets artists promote upcoming music on the platform. Fans can pre-save unreleased albums directly to their Spotify or Apple Music libraries, making the music instantly available when it drops. Not everyone is enthusiastic, though. Some critics view this as TikTok following in Spotify's footsteps (Spotify launched Spotify for Artists back in 2016), fostering a culture of music made specifically to go viral. As The Fader 's Jordan Darville writes, 'a massively popular app creates artist 'services' that steer the sound of music in directions more profitable for the platform, and simultaneously throttles royalties to make shareholders happy.' Perhaps these new TikTok features will inspire more unexpected comebacks from pop icons of the '60s—or maybe they'll just give us new options to soundtrack our TikTok carousels.

Nottingham Forest hope Nicolas Dominguez will recover from knee injury before start of new season
Nottingham Forest hope that Nico Dominguez will recover for the start of the new Premier League season after the midfielder suffered a knee injury. Dominguez has had to withdraw from international duty with Argentina because of the problem, which has seen him require treatment to repair a meniscus issue. Advertisement The 26-year-old established himself as a regular under Nuno Espirito Santo in the final stages of the campaign, as Forest secured European football for the first time in three decades. His form was enough to earn him a call-up for the World Cup qualifiers in Chile on June 6 and at home to Colombia on June 11. Dominguez last played for his country in a 0-0 draw with Brazil in November 2021, but will have to wait a little while longer for his next cap. Dominguez, who signed from Bologna in September 2023, made 23 starts and 11 substitute appearances in the top flight for Forest last season, as Forest pushed for a top-five finish – before ultimately finishing seventh, to secure a place in the Conference League next season. The player, who began his career at Velez Sarsfield in his home country, will be assessed in the coming weeks and throughout pre-season. But there is a hope that he could yet return for the start of the new campaign in August, if his recovery timeline goes positively.
