Sia writes with Kate Pierson, Bootsy Collins lectures funkily, Miley Cyrus getting snapped in a bikini, John Butler plan a “guerrilla gig” and heaps more.

Here’s a quick round-up of what some musical types are up to on twitter today.

  • Oz prog heroes Karnivool tell their German fans that they’ll be in town with NOFX, The National, Deftones and Jimmy Eat World.
  • Ex-Gunner Matt Sorum posts a pic of him, Duff McKagan and Marky Ramone. Rock!
  • Songwriter extraordinaire Sia says she’s teaming up with the B-52’s Kate Pierson on her solo album.
  • Funk legend Bootsy Collins posts a video of a lecture from Funk University. He must have tenure.
  • Adam Duritz of Counting Crows is still talking about taking his meds. Might be TMI, friend.
  • Bather and tourist Miley Cyrus is stoked about being in Brazil but is no fan of bikini-snapping paparazzi.
  • Adelaide hip-hop champs Hilltop Hoods inform their fans about a guest spot on Vents’ new album, which came out today. Warning: iTunes link!
  • High-profile hippies John Butler Trio add to the rumours that they’ll be doing a “guerilla gig”.
  • Just after releasing his new album, Moby says goodbye to NYC for a three month European tour.
  • Against Me! singer Tom Gabel says there’s some “huge label news” for his band, to be announced soon.

VIDEO: Check out our interview with Karnivool stagemates Deftones below.
