Singer-guitarist @benkweller was months shy of his

Singer-guitarist @benkweller was months shy of his 16th birthday when life took a dramatic turn and he found himself being hyped as rock’s next big thing.

Years later, in a heartbreaking parallel, his son Dorian, a budding singer-songwriter, died at age 16 in a car crash in 2023 near the family’s home in Dripping Springs, outside Austin.

“There’s a lot of symmetry with me and Dorian,” says Kweller, who’s now 43. “The path he was on with his music, it was almost like a full circle. I saw a lot of myself in him.”

Kweller pours his grief, shock and anguish into his seventh studio album, "Cover the Mirrors," due out May 30, which would have been his son’s 19th birthday. He named the album after a centuries-old mourning ritual.

It’s not just you: Like groceries and other expe

It’s not just you: Like groceries and other expenses, going to concerts, plays and sporting events has gotten more costly. Ticket prices have risen nearly 20% since 2021, according to data collected by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics.

A bill pending in the Texas House of Representatives aims to address some common frustrations with the ticketing process by making it easier to see the total cost of the ticket up front.

But opponents say the language prioritizes ticket resellers over fans by preventing venues and artists from placing a price cap on resale tickets.
