1. Catfish and the Bottlemen

These guys are sort of new to the music scene, but bring a lot to the table. Their alternative sound is awesome and is definitely worth a listen This is the link to their song "Souncheck".

2. Børns

I discovered this band through a friend about two years ago and instantly fell in love with their unique and interesting sound. This is the link to their song "Electric Love".

3. Young the Giant

Although these guys have been around for several years, I don't feel they get as much recognition and attention that they deserve. Here is a link to one of their more popular songs "Cough Syrup".

4. Mutemath

I found a single song from this band about a year ago and gravitated to them after listening to more of their music. They have more of a techno yet alternative sound that is very calming. Here is the link to their song "Light Up". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udPibA85qUg

5. The Front Bottoms

At first when I heard one song by this band I was immediately turned on, but as I continued to listen to them I began to appreciate their music. They have a real different sound than most bands as well as interesting lyrics. This is the link their song "Cough It Out". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n-8iPfI-o4

6. The Strumbellas

I heard this song on the radio and felt their song was really catchy. Their song "Spirits" is just so fun you can't not enjoy it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9kXstb9FF4

7. Florence + The Machine

Florence has been around for a few years, but she's continued to burst out with new hits that everyone loves. I've been a fan of her's for years now, and after seeing her live I realized how her music effects her emotionally and spiritually. Here is a link to her song "Ship To Wreck". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9v8jLBrvug

8. Foster The People

Like Florence, Foster The People too have been in the alternative music scene for a few years. This fun band always puts on a great show and continues to wow their fans. Here is a link to their song "Helena Beat". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABzh6hTYpb8

9. Halsey

I've heard a lot of mixed feelings towards Halsey, but personally her music is one of my favorites. I love her sound and the way she presents herself. Here is a like to her song "Colors". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGulAZnnTKA

10. Marian Hill

I discovered Marian at probably the strangest time in place. I was on a French exchange program, living in France, and trying to find some cool music to jam to and this is what I found! Here is a link to her song "Got It". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wjbY0Tyfr4

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:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

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.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
