I Wish I Could Say I Love Charlie Puth’s New Album By Suong Tran

It’s no question that Charlie Puth is a talented musician, but this isn’t what I’m talking about. I’ll be the first to tell you I’m a huge fan of Charlie Puth and I have been for a long time. His savantish nature yields gorgeous harmonies and a fullness in his music that I believe few others can reach. However, I think his new album is too much for me. I’m […]

Discussing “Eastward of Eden” with Amelia Day by Parker Smith

More than many schools, Vanderbilt is peppered with artists of all colors, from the technical musicians of Blair to the singer-songwriters of the Music Room. As VandyRadio’s music director, I’ve made it my business to know what all of them are up to: what they release, where they perform, and why they love music. And lately, it’s Amelia Day who has captured the spirit of Music City and brought it to campus with her […]

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. Sometimes a little playlist-induced nostalgia is necessary to mourn the start or end of freshman year. 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.

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 […]
