The music video even includes some 90’s visuals and wardrobe. While Doja had addressed, she was going to change her style, many […]

By Aaliyah Hamilton Music Journalist First blessing my eardrums in 2019, Dijon was unlike any artist I’ve heard. He was so addicting by the first listen that I’m still just as hooked four years later. Staying clear of any trends in his way, Dijon creates a path for his own original take in the world of R&B, which is far better than any mustard. Starting out within the duo […]

By Samantha Oesch Music Journalist Austin indie-folk band Large Brush Collection has recently returned to the Lone-Star State from a successful Midwest run. Fronted by bassist Nora Predey, Predey plays bass in an unorthodox way that almost resembles a traditional guitar.
