Starr will discuss his upcoming EP Zoom In and his new book Ringo Rocks: 30 Years Of The All Starrs: 1989-2019.”

- With any luck by the end of 2021, the Doobie Brothers' one-time house in San Jose, California will be marked a California Historical Landmark. The current owners of the house at 285 S. 12th St. in the city's Naglee Park neighborhood have submitted a proposal to the Historic Landmarks Commission and await the final approval by the City Council.

- Beach Boys Mike Love, Alan Jardine, Bruce Johnston, and David Marks, have teamed up for a charity re-recording of the band's 1970 classic, “Add Some Music To Your Day.” The song — billed to California Music — was originally featured on the band's 1970 Sunflower album and marked the group's first single of the 1970's, with the new version benefiting Feeding America.
- Also joining the group for the remake and accompanying video are Brian Wilson's daughters Carnie and Wendy Wilson, Carnie's daughter and husband Lola and Rob Bonfiglio, Carl Wilson's son Justyn Wilson, Mike Love's son Christian Love, Al Jardine's son Matt Jardine, along with longtime Beach Boys sideman Jeff Foskett.
