Rhayla’s Picks Quelle Rox The first artist that I am excited to tune into is a Latinx indie-pop superstar on the rise named Quelle Rox, or Rocky. […]

Whether you are doing Valentine’s Day alone, with a partner, or with your besties this year, love is a universal feeling for all to experience. Being that I spent so much of last year developing a new kind of love for myself, it prepared me to be able to honor myself while in a new […]

With spring break just around the corner, anticipation for Austin’s biggest event, the South by Southwest Festival (SXSW), gets higher and higher. From March 7 – 15, the Music Festival will showcase some of the best and newest names in entertainment over nine days, ending with a series of performances from your favorite new artists. […]

There’s a rare, sacred satisfaction in discovering a new artist and instantly to find you love everything they create. That joy doubles when the universe aligns, and you get to witness them perform live shortly after falling in love with their music. This was my exact experience with Lexa Gates. Thirty days into becoming a […]

Elyanna is a Palestinian-Chilean musician, born and raised in Nazareth. Elyanna includes a diverse amount of genres in her music. Growing up her home was filled with jazz and authentic arabic music. Many parts of this tour are inspired by her cultural upbringing and memories from home. The first inspirational artist of the night was […]

A supergroup is a band made up of musicians who were already famous or well-known from other bands before they came together. These artists usually have their own fanbases and bring a ton of experience and talent to the new project. The term “supergroup” is all about collaborations between musicians from established acts, mixing their […]

On November 13th, 2024, KAIRO released their debut album, ARE WE THERE YET?. At thirteen songs and a little over half an hour, it’s a great project that keeps you on your feet and dancing. Right before the release of the album, Coog Radio, along with a few other outlets, had the opportunity to chat […]

On November 11th, 2024, David Kushner brought the Dichotomy tour to Bayou Music Center in Houston, Texas. It was a beautiful show that left the crowd smiling from ear to ear.

“I think we should put music out again on Tuesdays instead of Fridays, for some reason.” Tyler Okonma, more famously known as Tyler, The Creator, smiles passionately in his 2023 interview with Nardwuar. “I know people think that because of the weekend, streams go up… but I feel like it’s a lot of passive listening… […]

Spirals of poetry and jazz that raised a young Fiona are unraveled in Tidal, one of the most timeless debuts of the nineties. Apple turns the tables, making her the poster child for female angst. Her debut came at a time when female artists like PJ Harvey and Alanis Morrissette challenged the traditional expectations of […]

I think it’s safe to say that almost everyone has a comfort album. A record that they can turn to when they’re happy, when they’re sad, when they’re pissed off, anything. The album that comes to mind when I think about what my comfort album could be is Blue Banisters by Lana del Rey. This […]

Pharrell Williams reinvented sound. He’s always been ahead of his time, and I truly do not know where music would be without his existence and influence. Pharrell’s new film, Piece by Piece, gives fans a closer look at his journey in not your typical documentary fashion. The decision to tell his story through LEGOs is nothing […]

As the lights went down at Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion, the crowd went wild as the next few hours were sure to bring some of the best times listening to 3 phenomenal rock bands. Daughtry Daughtry started the night with a bang by performing the song “The Reckoning” off their brand-new EP Shock to the […]

I arrived at Bayou Music Center excited to cover the show. I had heard of Chase Atlantic before, but made sure to revisit some of their greatest hits before the show such as: “Into It,” “Friends” and “Swim.” As I was listening to their music I really couldn’t help but get pumped for being able […]
