There must be something in the water in Virginia, Pharrell Williams said at the University of Virginia on Friday — and UVA graduates, whether born and bred or transplants, have an obligation to use their talents to help others. “Virginia has continued to produce icons, and I know that there are a bunch of future icons in this room waiting to reveal yourself,” he said in a fiery Valedictory Exercises address at John Paul Jones Arena.
“But my deep love for Virginia and for its people does not blind me to the fact that there is also troubled water here. In fact, my love for Virginia heightens my awareness that Virginia has a complicated history, a history that continues to shape the present.” Williams is a producer, songwriter and philanthropist who was born in Virginia Beach and performed at the Concert for Charlottesville in 2017. He spoke about challenges endemic to Virginia since its founding, and challenged graduates of the Class of 2019 to fight oppression wherever it is found.

A wine-country summer staple, Bottle Rock returns to the Napa Valley Expo May 24–26 with an eclectic lineup featuring some all-time greats of soul, rock, folk, indie and hip-hop. This year’s headliners are indie folk band Mumford and Sons, two-time Rock’n’Roll-Hall-of-Famer Neil Young and Grammy-winning electro-pop band Imagine Dragons. If those aren’t your cup of tea, the rest of the lineup includes some notable highlights, including May 25’s performance from super-producer Pharrell Williams, who, in addition to being a star in his own right, helped create some of Ariana Grande, Missy Elliott and Gwen Stefani’s most memorable tracks.
Oakland rap icon Too Short performs on May 26, as well as guitar god Carlos Santana, Bay Area soul band Con Brio, Big Boi of Outkast and actor-turned-musician Jeff Goldblum. Chart-topping rapper Logic performs May 24, plus Irish punk band Flogging Molly and Oakland retro rock’n’roller Shannon Shaw (who performs again on May 25 with her band, Shannon and the Clams). May 25’s lineup also includes ’90s stoner rappers Cypress Hill, Colombian pop star Juanes and punk band Against Me. Three-day passes for Bottle Rock are sold-out, but single-day tickets are still available. The full schedule and more information about the festival can be found here.
