Click here to more details on the following musical updates:
One of the stranger news stories developing around the time of the Grammy Awards last month was the report that rhythm and blues star Chris Brown had assaulted his girlfriend, singer Rihanna, the day before the two were scheduled to perform at the Grammy Awards ceremony. Recent news has surfaced that the two have reconciled and are spending time together.
The supergroup U2 will release a new album this week, and will perform for five consecutive nights on the late-night David Letterman show.
Steven Page, the lead singer for Barenaked Ladies, has left the band in order to pursue a solo career.
For the first time in nine years (since Carlos Santana's "Supernatural" album), country singer Taylor Swift's latest CD, "Fearless", has spent its 10th non-consecutive week in the Number One position on the Billboard 200 chart for the week ending March 7.
A new band, Tinted Windows, has been formed, including keyboardist Taylor Hanson.
