ZEN MCGEE: Playlist Takeover

Check out Zen's playlist! Link to playlist: un viaje a otros planetas by Zen McGee Genres: Alternative, Psychedelic, Dance Why you should listen to this playlist (according to Zen) “I think it captures a lot of different artists, who all have very unique sounds, but somehow, the songs are all pretty cohesive in terms of establishing a harmonious vibe…I would recommend this playlist for a lake/nature moment. It’s a vibe […]

Soundtrack to “Walking through Commons”

Admit it – we’ve all walked through Vandy’s campus, particularly Commons, with some coming-of-age music blasting in our ears.

But don’t worry, because I have just the playlist you need in order to fully enact those feels.   This playlist is perfectly curated to make sure that you feel both nostalgic and inspired. Growth […]

Giveon, You Gave It All

I can't quite explain the sigh of relief I exhaled as I read that Giveon's debut album Give or Take was set to release this summer. With singles like "Lie Again" and "For Tonight," I knew that this album was going to bring everything Giveon has the potential to give (no pun intended), so here we are. And I'll tell you what, I absolutely love it. From the first song, […]

Is WASTELAND a waste of time?

Giving us perhaps one of the most highly anticipated R&B albums of the year, Brent Faiyaz did not come to play with his 2022 album WASTELAND. Personally, Faiyaz’ new album comes as a great relief as I write to you from the Dallas Fort Worth airport, eating slightly disgusting airport food on hour eight of a 13-hour travel day. Stacked with features from start to finish, Faiyaz gives us everything […]

S.G. Goodman at Basement East

“An untamed rock & roll truth teller.” That’s how Rolling Stone describes S.G. Goodman, one of Verge Record’s rising singer songwriters. I had the opportunity to attend Goodman’s Monday performance at Nashville’s Basement East, an iconic venue for the Nashville music scene, where she opened for Madison Cunningham. As I stepped into the dimly lit venue, I was met with a buzzing excitement and anticipation from the growing crowd. Before […]

Waking Up To Fall!

BY: Jinsun Kim Happy September everyone! It’s already starting to get chilly, and I can’t wait for the autumn season to settle in. The campus will look gorgeous once the trees start changing color.  I don’t know about you, but with the rainy weather recently, it’s been getting harder for me to wake up in the morning. It’s so hard to not be groggy getting ready for the day when […]

History of Irish Music

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Commodores! I hope everyone is having a lucky day and enjoying the broadcast. Irish Music has a rich history we thought we would share with all of you through a short blog post. When the Celts arrived in Ireland, they brought many things including music. The first time Irish music was written down was 1762. The Neale brothers published these songs. Irish Music really began to […]

Broadcasting During a Pandemic

By: Ellie Hooey  About a year ago, we all left Vanderbilt’s campus excited to start spring break. Some of us went to tropical places, some were in Europe visiting friends abroad, and some went home to see family. The underlying factor to all of these trips, though, was the looming pandemic. All of us heard on the news about a new virus that was wreaking havoc on people’s respiratory systems. […]
