By The Way is a rapid-fire segment that gives you a snapshot of developing stories in the music world. This week, Taylor Swift is at the center of a political campaign as American politician Terry McAuliffe uses the issues involving her to attack his opponent Glenn Youngkin. Billie Eilish continues to smash records as she is set to play Pyramid Stage as the festival’s youngest solo headliner ever. David Lee Roth, a former Van Halen member will be retiring and his final shows will be around New Year’s. And Courtney Barnett is getting ready to release her third album and to give a teaser - she created a stem mixer that gives fans the opportunity to interact with some of the song’s singles ahead of the release.
