That indie band started out as part of alt-country weirdos Giant Sand, but TAKAAT aren’t seeking to branch out from or expand the sound of their parent outfit.

Taylor Swift’s Celeb Pal Purposely Avoided Her — And for Good Reason

6 days ago | spin.com | Michelle McGahan

Taylor Swift is known for making friends with countless A-listers — far beyond her 1989 era “girl squad” — so it would certainly seem strange that one of her celeb friends would openly ignore her at an event, especially one as major as the 2025 Super Bowl.
