Billie Eilish will bring a timeless, Parisian neighborhood to life with a series of cinematic performances during her Prime Day Show set. Eilish directed her set alongside Sam Wrench, and it will feature new music from Billie’s upcoming album Happier Than Ever.
H.E.R. reimagines what the iconic Dunbar Hotel, once referred to as the hub of Los Angeles Black culture in the 1930’s and 40’s, would look like if it existed in 2021 featuring new music from her album Back Of My Mind.
