5 Eclectic Bands To Break The Monotony
Jacques Lowe

I don’t know about you, but I love change. I can’t stand doing the same things the same exact way every day, and this includes the music I listen to. I’m constantly on the lookout for bands willing to break out of the norm and stretch the rules to fit their unconventional ways. So if you ever find yourself bored with your music and need something fresh, I hope this list will help you out. The bands below are some of the most unconventional and out-of-the-box artists I know of. So buckle up, sit back, and enjoy!


Twenty One Pilots

Kickin' it off with the most eclectic band I know and love, duo Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun of twenty one pilots are the epitome of out-of-the-box; in fact, they went and broke the box. You may have heard their hit singles: "Stressed Out," "Tear In My Heart," or "Ride". However, their music ranges from ukulele tunes ("House of Gold") and piano ballads ("Goner") to spitfire rap ("HeavyDirtySoul") and everything in between.


Gungor

Husband and wife, Michael and Lisa Gungor are truly artistic in their endeavor to express themselves through music in entirely original ways. Gungor is most famous for their singles, "Beautiful Things" and "I Am Mountain," but if you've ever explored the rest of their music you'll find this band tends to stick to the path less trodden.


Imagine Dragons

Most known for their hit single, "Radioactive," Imagine Dragons likes to routinely break the boundaries of conventional music and this list just wouldn't be complete without them.

Judah And The Lion

Their older music may be more traditional sounding folk-style music, but with their new album, "Folk Hop N' Roll," they've taken on a new kind of genre. Their new music crosses modern techno style music with the traditional folk.


Lindsey Stirling

Another genre-crossing artist and first of her kind, Lindsey Stirling is a dancing, dubstep violinist. Curious? Take a listen. If you like this, then you'd love her new single, "The Arena."

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
