This past Friday night, the city of Houston was in for a treat when John Legend was set to perform at the Rodeo. It was obvious that this was not John’s first time on the Rodeo stage by showing how comfortable he was with the arena and the crowd. He is no stranger to the […]

During the past few weeks, the real world was consuming my life with homework and midterms. I had no time to catch up with the music world and it was really upsetting. After a hectic week, I was able to consolidate and put together songs that have been buzzing in my ear lately. As you […]

Several months ago, I wrote my first blog post: “A Complete Guide to Frontier Fiesta“. This post was about the possible lineup of performers coming to our campus to perform in March. Today, I am announcing the official line up of performers! I hardly can contain my excitement. So without further ado, here are the artists […]

After many breakup rumors and a brief hiatus, Mumford and Sons have returned and announced their highly-anticipated third album, “Wilder Mind,” on Monday. The album will be released on May 4 through their label, Glassnote Records and the first single “Believe” will debut on Monday, March 9!! The British folk-rock band posted a teaser for the […]

I would like to personally thank a friend of mine for showing me this band and allowing my ears to come alive when listening to them. They are the masterpiece that is Royal Blood. Formed in 2012 in Brighton of the UK, this two man band has been challenging the boundaries of Alternative Rock. With a vibe […]

The country queen has returned to her home-state and received a warm welcome from over 62,000 fans. This was Miranda’s fourth time performing at the Houston Rodeo, “I’m still really freaking nervous y’all,” said Lambert, who made her Rodeo debut back in 2008. Since then, Miranda has been named female vocalist of the year at the ACM’s […]

Whether it was Rachel Platten‘s sweet, bluesy cover of “Thinking Out Loud,” Paradise Fears breaking out with spoken word in the middle of their set, or Alex and Sierra‘s endearing on-stage dialogue and anecdotes (including an adorable Simon Cowell impression), The Good Guys and a Girl tour showed the House of Blues a great time last […]

Ah, the season of tests and midterms is upon us. While I FINALLY finished taking tests for just about every single class I have last week, I know that many students still have upcoming tests to ace, and if you’re a fortunate student that doesn’t have any upcoming tests, I’m sure this post can prove […]

Jeff Rosenstock has his roots set in ska and punk rock music, once singer and guitarist for Bomb the Music Industry!, a band that formed in 2004 and disbanded (heh, see what I did there?) just last year. Fortunately, the band’s bright melodic approach to punk is mostly gone by the time Rosenstock released this […]

“From the beginning we’ve always been trying to write pop music.” -Corin Roddick The Canadian electric duo composing of Corin Roddick and Megan James, otherwise known by their band name “Purity Ring,” finally released their new album to the United States this past Tuesday. Their last album from 2010, Fineshrine, received lots of praise for its […]

Hunter Hayes rocked the Houston Rodeo stage for the second year in a row. Wednesday’s performance was also Armed Forces appreciation day which was perfect considering how big of a supporter Hunter is. On his Tattoo (Your Name) tour last year, Hunter teamed up with the USO where fans were able to keep the light […]

My original title was Remixes You Don’t Know From Songs You Haven’t Heard Of, but all those capitals made my head ache and who am I to say you have not heard of any of these? Regardless, here are some mixes that made songs (which aren’t sub par by any means, but preferences are kind of a […]

  Hailing from Boston, indie rock and grunge-punk band Pile, is the band other bands have dreams of. They have a shout out in Krill’s 2014 EP Steve Hears Pile In Malden And Bursts Into Tears.  If any of the members of Pile were at a bar with other musicians, they would get so many […]

Formed in 2007, San Diego natives Pierce the Veil are seasoned veterans in the music industry, and their experience was prevalent in the detail that clearly went into the design of the show. The band is currently co-headlining a world tour with Sleeping With Sirens, and openers PVRIS and Mallory Knox, that recently passed through […]

If you have not seen an episode of Fox’s hit new show “Empire” yet, it is time to take time out of your busy day for it. The rise of this musical drama has been fascinating to watch over the last few weeks, and things just keep getting better for the show. You must be wondering why I […]

Brother and sister combos have proved to be successful music ventures in the past and recent history. Families have been producing music for as long as music has existed. The Jackson 5 are only one example of musical success, more recently there has also been Echosmith. Another addition to the family vibe is the band […]

Iggy Azalea sat in the director’s chair while filming the music video of her new single, “Trouble,” which was released this Friday. The only way I can characterize the video is to call it three minutes of a modern-day, feminized old western meets Prison Break, seen through the lens of the 70’s. It comes complete with tattooed […]

I was thoroughly impressed by the show put on by August Burns Red at the House of Blues. Between their stage presence, their incredible lighting setup, and the way they treated their fans, I was blown away. They even stopped in the middle of the show to give away cupcakes to fans in the first […]

Have you ever experienced the beauty of being in complete and utter peace? The Texas Yoga Conference assisted in helping their attendees reach just that. This three-day weekend event, which began on February 20th and concluded on the 22nd, left hundreds of participants in awe of the power of yoga. Whether a businessman, a student, […]

This week’s Fave Cover Friday is “Dear No One” by Tori Kelly. For those unfamiliar with Tori Kelly, a good description of her would be: sunshine manifested into an actual person. Tori began posting YouTube covers at the age of 14. Since then, she is now a signed artist with many original songs of her […]
