David Crosby

JAN 19: Sad news today, David Crosby has passed away at age 81 after a long illness. The singer-songwriter and guitarist was a founding member of The Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash - he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with each. RIP

Anita Baker

JAN 26: Happy birthday to Anita Baker, born today in 1958! She released her debut album in 1983, but it was her album, Rapture, in 1986 that would catapult her into the spotlight. Baker has won eight Grammy awards and continues to tour today.
