Olivia Rodrigo Meets The Cure, Wu-Tang Meets the Knicks + Gov Ball Recap & More

It was a big week here in NYC: Phoebe Bridgers' $1 MSG show, Bright Eyes' doomed album anniversary show, Gov Ball where Dave saw Slayyyter, Geese, Fcukers, Freddie Gibbs, Clipse, Hot Mulligan, A$AP Rocky, Japanese Breakfast (now known as J Preggie), Jennie & more.... and then THE KNICKS (Taylor Swift & the Wu-Tang Clan included) 

+ Olivia Rodrigo surprised Primavera Fest by bringing out Robert Smith of the Cure to premiere a new song they made together and which appears on Olivia's new album which is out today (and which Andrew reviews) 

+ Death Cab For Cutie is still in rotation, and we talk other new albums that came out this week + this week's music news (Strokes, Interpol & Jack White included), all of this & more on this episode of BV Weekly. 

PLUS our 1996 albums turning 30 series ends this week with albums by Tupac and Everything But the Girl. Stick around to the end of the episode to hear that.
