Weekly playlist: Pride Week

It’s the last week of the school year, and it’s also Pride Week. One of the best things about living in Oxford is its inclusivity. The LOU community does a fantastic job of building up and supporting its citizens that are a part of marginalized communities. This week we’ve got a playlist of songs made […]

Weekly playlist: Double Decker

Double Decker is almost here. It’s hard to believe we’re only three weeks away from graduation, but hopefully, this weekend will be a nice reprieve from all the stress caused by upcoming exams. The Student Activities Association and Visit Oxford did a great job in getting some really cool artists for this year’s lineup. There’s […]

Weekly playlist: Coachella

We only have a few more weeks until we reach the finish line! This week, we’re celebrating by including some songs by musical artists featured at this past weekend’s Coachella Festival in Indio, California. I watched Beyoncé’s performance, and it was definitely a sight to see. This playlist features The Weeknd, BROCKHAMPTON, Eminem, SZA and […]

Weekly playlist: World music

This week, we’ve got world music, and man, is it beautiful! I couldn’t cover every country/culture (because then this playlist would be about 100 hours long), but I hope I did well enough to cover a bulk of some of the world’s coolest music. There’s Jamaican reggae, Greek polka, Tibetan throat singing and so much […]

Weekly playlist: Springtime jazz

Happy spring, everybody! We are five weeks away from exams – can you believe it? This year has flown by, and the weather over the past week has been nothing short of incredible. This week’s playlist is all about jazz, which is one genre I love to listen to when the sun is shining. It’s […]

Weekly playlist: ‘Folksy’ bluegrass

Hey everyone! The springtime always reminds me of my time spent in the mountains, and there’s no better place to be than in the Appalachians around a fire, listening to some good old-fashioned “folksy” bluegrass. Trampled by Turtles, Punch Brothers, Greensky Bluegrass and others make an appearance on this week’s easy-listening playlist. Check it out, […]

Weekly playlist: Punk

Hope everyone had a great spring break! We’re halfway through the semester, so it’s time to buckle down and get those B’s up to A’s. I spent my break in Oklahoma City at the fourth (and, unfortunately, last) Everything Is Not OK punk fest. It was my first time out West, and I loved it […]

Weekly playlist: Women’s History Month

Happy Women’s History Month! This week, we’ve got tunes written and sung by women from all walks of life. March is my favorite month for a plethora of reasons, but I love it most because I love celebrating life with all my lady friends. We have endured some hardships from the suffrage movement in the […]

Weekly playlist: Folk music favorites

Hey, everyone. Welcome back! I know we took last week off, but I’m really excited to share this week’s playlist with you. It’s not so much a playlist as it is a full-length album. I’ve been listening to the soundtrack of a new movie called “American Folk,” and it’s so good I had to share […]

Weekly playlist: Black History Month

Happy Black History Month! This is one of my favorite times of the year because I love seeing my friends of color shine. It’s a month when I, as someone who is white, take the back seat to learn more about my friends’ culture and history. Black artists have changed the world of music and […]
