By Ashley Farnie Assistant Music Director After my first listen to Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder To The Sky, I knew I wanted to see the creative aesthetic album visually. Traveling from the U.K., Porridge Radio was accompanied by Sean Henry & The Valley Social Club of New York at Austin’s Parish. Sean Henry and band maintain a consistently indie rock sound of catchy rhyme schemes appealing to a young and […]
By Ashley Farnie Assistant Music Director We are in the midst of ACL season here in central Texas! Many traveling to Austin will fall in love with our city and contribute to the city’s overcrowding and housing crisis. But let’s focus on the festival… This will be my second time attending ACL. I attended in 2019 and have since been to festivals of varying degrees, molding my opinion of the […]
McKenzie McGuire Music Journalist A night of alluring sounds from Khruangbin was a healing experience. The three members Laura Lee, Mark Speer, and Donald Johnson from Houston, put on a set that allowed people to express themselves, unlike any live show I’ve experienced. With their sound being primarily acoustic, not focusing on lyrics makes the crowd absorb every beat, riff, and baseline that oozes off of the stage. The most […]
By Kylie Hogg Local Music Journalist On Tuesday, September 26th, 2022, I had the honor of spending the night at Harry’s House. For those of you who may be unaware, Harry Styles has been going on a residency tour for the past month and a half or so.

Destany Sanchez Music Journalist I was astonished to learn that ONE OK ROCK (OOR) was returning to the road with a new album after a 3 ½ year hiatus. I’ve been a huge fan of theirs since 2015 and have never been able to have the opportunity to see them live, until this tour. Unfortunately, with just my luck, they had sold out of the pre-sale VIP tickets. On the […]

by Ashley Farnie Assistant Music Director If you read my latest concert review, you know that I spent my summer studying in Ireland. I took a bus ride from Cork to Waterford to camp at the Curraghmore Estate for the All Together Now festival. I picked up a pop-up tent in the city and headed to the bus station to experience a festival out of my home country. […]
By Kenlie Golleher Rap Music Director Earlier this year, L.A. rapper Kendrick Lamar made a huge comeback by releasing his highly anticipated and long-awaited fifth studio album, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. This album comes almost five years after the release of his critically acclaimed and Pulitzer Prize-winning fourth studio album, DAMN., released in 2017. After the album dropped, plans for a supporting tour, appropriately named The Big Steppers Tour, were quickly […]
By Kenlie Golleher Rap Music Director Earlier this year, Florida rapper Denzel Curry released his highly anticipated fifth studio album Melt My Eyez See Your Future, an introspective record that Curry himself described as “the end of an era”. Curry finds himself moving past his previous alter egos and bodies of work and instead embraces his authentic self. "I'm not trying to be Zeltron. I'm not trying to be Aquarius […]
