It's March 28th. Welcome to Music News Today. Powered by AI and tuned in to what's next. Shiverches just hit the stage at the Royal Albert Hall for Robert Smith's Teenage Cancer Trust Series, dropping their brand new track Conman Live for the first time. It marked their return after almost three years away, and they shared it during a stacked charity gig lineup. Earlier this month on March 27th, front woman Lauren Mayberry hyped the crowd, saying they'd been deep in the studio, cooking up a full record. The song kicks off with heavy bass and gritty guitars, leaning into a post-punk edge that's fresh for the band. Fans lost it over the debut, especially with the band's history alongside Smith. He guessed it on their 2021 single, How Not To Drown, and they crushed a joint performance at the NME Awards the next year, even snagging an award. Now, word is their new album's 90% done, promising to shock and thrill with some face melting sounds while keeping that core first A's vibe. Meanwhile, bandmates Martin Dordy and Johnny Scott just announced their

side project. The Leaving's debut album Ultimate Buzz drops April 24th. The series rolls on strong this weekend, with garbage and placebo tonight, Wolf Alice Tomorrow, and more heavy hitters like Manic Street Preachers and Elbow already delivering epic sets, pure fire for a great cause.
