What You Missed: Day One, Weekend Two – Austin City Limits 2022

By Avery Viers Local Music Director After jumping at the opportunity to apply for media credentials, I was ecstatic to be accepted as a contributing music journalist for weekend two of Austin City Limits Festival. While never having attended the festival before, I was admittedly ill-prepared to embark on a modest 15,228 steps throughout our afternoon spent in Zilker Park. Nevertheless, I couldn’t have asked for a more positive experience […]

Nepotism and the Rush of Live Music: Artist Interview with The Selfless Lovers

Kylie Hogg Music Journalist I sat down with Nik Parr, the lead singer from Austin-based band, The Selfless Lovers to talk about their upcoming Third Thursday show with us on October 20, 2022, as well as other general music opinions. Kylie Hogg: So, your website says you tour around 150 dates per year. Does that get emotionally draining as a band that is not yet ‘established’?   Nik Parr: Yes, […]

Album Review: TiaCorine’s “I Can’t Wait”

Andrea Moor Music Journalist In all honesty, North Carolina rapper TiaCorine has yet to receive their flowers. Despite having nearly a quarter of a million monthly Spotify listeners and being most known for their 2018 TikTok sensation track “Lotto”, the pick-up of their career has yet to be in full effect. Dubbing themselves an “anime trap” rapper, the 29-year-old’s flow is like no other. “FreakyT” effortlessly oozes androgyny from hitting […]

Fontaines dc concert review

By Ashley Farnie Assistant Music Director   And just when you thought I was done talking about Ireland, a favorite Irish band of mine travels to Austin, allowing me to revel in my reminiscence a little longer. Following the release of their most recent album Skinty Fia in April, Fontaines D.C. (Dublin City) takes to the road in the States before heading through the UK on the way back to […]

Concert Review: Khruangbin and Thundercat

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 […]

Album Review: A Lighter Shade of Blue by Christina Perri

By Christina Sims Music Journalist Christina Perri is a singer-songwriter that constantly stuns, a musician who has had several hits over her career. “Jar of Hearts” from Perri’s debut Lovestrong launched her into stardom more than a decade ago, while “Human” from her follow up Head or Heart in 2014 became a hit as well. None of her songs had nearly as much impact as “A Thousand Years” from the final movie in The Twilight […]

Escape Room: The Pop Genre You’ve Never Heard Of      

Tiara Allen Music Journalist  You may have heard of escape rooms. Escape rooms are fun party games where attendees use clues hidden around the room to escape a room that they are “trapped” in. But have you ever listened to escape room?  As I was working on a piece about my pandemic listening habits, I learned that the most recurring genres in the playlist of my top songs were pop, […]

Maggie Rogers: Surrender Album Review

Sofia Gualy Music Journalist Maggie Rogers has done it again, and this time in a way that can be described as freeing and enchanting. Rogers expresses her experiences and emotions in a manner that not many modern artists do. She sings of angst and wanting to break free, emotions that many young adults face. Her sophomore album, Surrender is chock full of incredible vocals, passionate lyricism and the conjuring of […]

Concert Review: M(h)aol at The Lord Kingsale in Kinsale, County Cork, Ireland

 Ashley Farnie Assistant Music Director   If you frequent Austin, TX near Red River, you may be familiar with the iridescent sticker pasted throughout the streets reading “GHOST A POST-PUNK BOY TODAY.” I became familiar with this motto - and began practicing it myself – when I realized the connection between a band my professor recommended that I see while studying abroad in Cork, Ireland. I now own a tote […]
