Dagny: The Queen of Aesthetics
Spotify

When it comes to music, Norwegian-native, Dagny, is no stranger. Having been born into the music world, the 28-year-old always had the profound influence of her parents guiding her down the path to success. Dagny grew up surrounded by the sweet vocals and instrumentals of jazz music, but today, she fronts a vivacious pop sound.

With just about every song on the radio having a pop vibe, Dagny recognizes there’s no room in the industry for backseat tracks and trivial lyrics. She identifies the importance of taking a strategic, yet playful approach to creating her music.

Dagny’s break onto the scene leaves us longing to know more about her creative process, insight into her lyrics, inspirations and overall style. On Spotify, she has more than 580,000 monthly listeners, which is a testament to her incredible talent, as well as her ability to give the fans what they want, while also remaining true to her own thoughts.

Dagny recently released her debut EP, Ultraviolet -- and it’s all around perfection. Her breakout song, Backbeat, off of the new EP is what really brought her name to the public’s eye and into the spotlight. It’s the youthful, nostalgic, lively anthem you need in your life right now. The lyrics make us wish for simpler times in the past while reminding her listeners that memories become so much more desirable when they are at a distance.

Dagny’s music follows music’s most recent trend of pop fused with electronic hints, yet her eclectic style makes her craft stand out in this category. The other tracks on Ultraviolet -- “Too Young,” “Fight Sleep” and “Ultraviolet” -- have a perfectly formulated spot on this EP, and are all individualistic works of art that deserve an honorary spot on your “Fresh Finds” Spotify Playlist.

Dagny’s newest project also includes “Fool’s Gold” -- a collaboration with indie, alt-pop mogul BØRNS. Throughout the song, she begs the question of whether the love she experienced was genuine. It isn't sugarcoated or fabricated; it’s insightful and easily relatable, in the sense that she longs for love and will not settle for anything less than authentic.

Dagny is one of the few artists in this industry that truly understands the hype of our pop culture. Her lyrics are fearless and thoughtful while remaining meaningful in her artistic cultivation of sound.

And if that’s not a reason to become a fan, she gives us more of a reason to love her with her edgy cover of Ultraviolet, where she is seen sporting a trendy bomber and short, white-honey blonde hair. Officially becoming the queen of aesthetics: musically and visually.

As a ‘thank you’ for her fans’ devotion, Dagny spreads the love by creating giveaways and free goodies.

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.

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
