Good Band Alert: The Blondies
The Blondies

Members Simon Lunche (lead vocals and primary writer), Frank Klopotowski (bass), Jerry Feist (keyboard), Isaac Roth (guitar), and drummers Paul Davis (in studio) and Elias Williams (live performances) worked together to make their first self-produced track, Just Another Evening, which turned out fantastic. I recently had a brief moment speak with them while they were on tour and the following is our interview.

Q: Who are some of your biggest musical inspirations?

A: "Biggest musical inspirations would be The Beatles (all of them), Jeff Buckley. All amazing songwriters. The Beatles were so creative in their recording practices as well."

Q: What do you hope to accomplish with your music?

A: "We hope to give a voice to all those people out there who have feelings that they don't feel comfortable expressing. We also want to help people to feel something, whether it be a feeling of freedom, sadness, relief, happiness. We hope to take our music to the world. We'd like as many people to experience it as possible."

Q: What is your creative process when you guys are putting music together?

A: "Simon is the songwriter, he writes all of the music and the lyrics. When he has come up with a basic concept he brings it to the other members of the band and tells them what kind of feel he wants to evoke, usually with very specific beats, baselines, and solos. Then we all tighten up the instrumentals as a group."

The Blondies are an exceptionally talented group and surely have the potential to make themselves a house hold name. Their music is a refreshing new sound with old school vibes and is definitely worth a listen.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
