It's April 22nd. This is Music News Today, Music Coverage Powered by AI. Jesse Maillain just dropped a heartfelt tribute track called Hollywood Forever for his late friend, Halle Pyro, the basis from degeneration who passed. In 2022, the single comes with a B-side cover of the Clashes Rudy can't fail, and last week they released a music video packed with Pyro's photos, plus his. Wild collection of occult books and figurines. Pyro, born Howard Couston in 1960, lost his battle with liver disease on May 4th, 2022. He was a DJ who connected with everyone from the Ramones to Hell's Angels and drag queens, and he always said Hollywood Forever Cemetery was his dream. Resting spot if he had to go, that same vibe hits close to home for Maillain, who suffered a rare spinal stroke a year later at a dinner celebrating Pyro's memory, leaving him, paralyzed. It shook his world, but he channeled it into music and stories about their bond. Now Maillain's stage show Silverman hadn't weaves in that friendship alongside his love

for New York City, sharing his health scare and pyrotales. He just announced his final extension through May 10th at the Bowery Palace Theatre. This one's a straight-up love letter from one artist to another, keeping Pyro spirit alive in songs, screens, and spotlights across the city.
