Songs, albums, live performances — some are simply timeless. From their early roots, circa 1988, playing house parties at Louisiana State University, Better Than Ezra have made their mark on the music world in a major way. Yes, the New Orleans quartet, founded by Kevin Griffin (lead vocals, guitar, piano) and Tom Drummond (bass, backing vocals), who unleash hummable melodies, unshakable guitar riffs, and confessional lyrics, have stood the test of time — from 1995’s number one hit “Good” all the way to Taylor Swift’s famous 2010 cover of the Better Than Ezra classic “Breathless.” And they’re still going strong: in May 2024, the band released their long-anticipated tenth studio album “Super Magick” via Round Hill Records. Named one of the “100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time” by “Billboard,” with a legacy that includes inspiring a classic “Saturday Night Live” skit, Better Than Ezra spent 2024 on the road touring their headline “Live a Little Tour” in the spring and continuing through the year, recently wrapping their “Legends of the Fall: Tokyo Drift Tour.”

Critic Robert Siegel shared praise in “The New York Times:” “[Adam Gopnik] gave a performance of his one man show about life in New York with great emphasis on his misadventures in psychoanalysis, which was both hilarious and very wise.”
A staff writer at “The New Yorker,” Gopnik has been contributing to magazine since 1986. During his tenure, he has written fiction, humor, criticism, book reviews, personal essays, Profiles, and reported pieces from abroad. He was the magazine’s art critic from 1987 to 1995 and the Paris correspondent from 1995 to 2000. From 2000 to 2005, he wrote a journal about New York life.

In commemoration of the 250th anniversary of America’s founding, Norman Rockwell Museum will debut a major exhibition in 2026: American Stories: Revolution to Rockwell. This sweeping exhibition explores how artists—from the Revolutionary era to today–have made visible the evolving story of America. Featuring over 200 powerful works across themed sections, American Stories reveals how illustrations—from the 18th century to today—have reflected and shaped what it means to be American.
The exhibition includes original paintings, prints, book illustrations, broadsides, posters, advertisements, and digital media, from the Museum’s expansive holdings as well as major loans from important institutions and private collectors across the country, including the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. From iconic masterpieces to everyday media, these works chart the nation’s ambitions, struggles, and enduring pursuit of freedom.
The exhibition places Rockwell’s iconic images in a broader national context, spotlighting illustration’s role in illuminating America’s ambitions, achievements, and struggles. Alongside Rockwell’s work, visitors will discover pieces by Virginia Lee Burton, Margaret Hoening French, Rockwell Kent, Jacob Lawrence, J.C. Leyendecker, Roy Lichtenstein, Howard Pyle, Paul Revere, Norman Rockwell, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Jessie Wilcox Smith, Arthur Szyk, Andy Warhol and many more, which appear alongside early engravings, illustrated books, and contemporary works, underscoring the enduring power of visual culture. Bringing the exhibition into today’s moment will be works by some of the country’s top contemporary artists including Scott Bakal, George Barker, Bo Bartlett, Bascove, Shonto Begay, Rabbett Before Horses Strickland, Guy Billout, Irina Borisova, Charles Burchfield, Rebecca Burr, Robert Carter, Christo, Leslie Cober, Alan E.

Each chapter of the exhibition addresses a major theme that has shaped the United States and its critical fortunes. One section explores how artists have helped form our understanding of the natural world—from Audubon’s early bird studies to illustrations of gargantuan infrastructure projects that reshaped the land. Another highlights the role of illustration in capturing the excitement of new technologies, from Edison’s lightbulb to the jet age. A third examines how images have fueled social change and shaped public opinion, tracing a path from Revolutionary-era prints to today’s viral memes. Together, these themes reveal how illustration has not only reflected American life but actively influenced it—making this exhibition both a visual journey through history and a fresh look at the power of images to tell our collective story.
