“It is our humble little stand, but it is something that we’re proud of,” DiCamillo said. “It’s fun and it just gives us an opportunity to share with others, neighbors, friends and really anybody that decides to follow along the journey.”
Get to know the Lariat staff by learning about the love songs that hold a special meaning in their hearts.
Centineo does a great job also carrying the show’s humor. The same boyish charm he showed in To All the Boys I Loved Before makes him shine like a diamond in this new season.
Another week, another Tunesday. This time, I bring you a song worthy of a disco dance party, a cover of a song by the best grunge band of all time and a freestyle rap by none other than Best Rap Album winner, Doechii.
While Jazz ‘n Stanzas happens during Black History Month, it is an open space which invites these non-Black students to share their stories and cultures as well. The art forms shared include song, spoken word, poetry, dance and other talents, Williams said.
If you are looking to support locally owned black businesses this February, I highly recommend checking out King’s Wings. I’m already looking forward to my next visit, and I highly recommend checking out both their Union Hall and Union Grove locations. The food is flavorful, fresh and priced just right.
The band will release their debut single, “Golden,” on February 14. This will be followed by an EP titled “Extended Play,” which will be released on February 28th and include three songs plus their singles titled “Bloom,” “Home” and “Stereochemical.”
“Companion” struggled to find its identity. It’s a jack of all trades in the sense that it fits into a ton of different genres, but it truly was the master of none. It wasn’t scary enough to be horror, wasn’t funny enough for comedy, wasn’t romantic enough. Any genre you’d think of — it wasn’t enough.
The theme of this week’s Tunesday is (drumroll, please)… pining! That’s right — it’s the season of love. So, if you, too, have been struck by Cupid’s arrow like these head-over-heels artists, join the club and hit play on these recently dropped love songs.
This album a great finale to work of the late Mac Miller. His experimental sounds and vulnerability within his lyrics create a safe place. Miller’s innovative taste and drive to create something different gives me hope for the future of music. After listening to the same three albums for the past six months, I’m happy to say I have a fourth one in the rotation.
“Wolf Man” successfully startled, shocked and horrified me, but at what cost? What scare factors this film showcased were balanced out with several frustrating and predictable moments which caused me to not be able to take the movie as seriously as I’d hoped.
A little bit of rap, a tish of electropop, a dash of alternative indie— this Tunesday has it all. Here are some fresh drops from Central Cee, FKA Twigs and Flipturn to get your week started right.
As the 97th Academy Awards approaches, the eagerly anticipated ceremony on March 2 will bring monumental shifts in film. From “Anora” to “The Brutalist,” this year’s lineup will surely be the first of many changes within movie creation.
The Grammys are just around the corner, and anticipation is building to see who will take home the awards this year. With an incredible lineup of songs and artists in the mix, let’s dive into my predictions for three major categories: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist.
For freshmen, these auditions could allow them to be accepted into the Baylor School of Music. This would then grant them the ability to pursue a music major, which, according to admissions and recruiting coordinator Callan Chappell, isn’t necessarily a requirement for musicians to pursue their passion at Baylor.
While the Waco Independent Film Festival hosts multiple events each year for film enthusiasts, they wanted to work with KWBU to create a space where the community of Waco could gather for the simple pleasure of enjoying a film. After the movie, everyone, no matter the background, could join in the conversation.
Much like the rest of Cain’s discography, “Perverts” isn’t exactly a casual listen. It’s not meant to be consumed while doing the dishes, walking on the treadmill or going grocery shopping. It’s one of those albums you listen to in a dark room, in silence, maybe curled up in bed. It demands undivided attention, solemnity respect.
Tunesday is up and rolling again to bring you some fresh tunes for the start of the new semester. Check out the best songs of January so far in this dynamic list featuring Bad Bunny, Ethel Cain and no — you’re not tripping — Mac Miller.
The club is welcome to students of any major and art level, and Rigmaiden said that they are planning to have future presentations on “sculptures, installations and the artist’s workspace, as well as possibly an art fair where anyone in the club would be able to sell their own work.”
If you’re a fan of thoughtful, artistic movies, even if you don’t like horror, this is a movie you won’t want to skip out on.
While this film might not do enough to satisfy the most dedicated Bob Dylan fans, it’s good enough for me. I’d recommend this film to anybody who’s ever even heard of Bob Dylan and his music. Even my sister who hates Bob Dylan thought it was a good movie.
Elvis Presley may have passed away 46 years ago, but Elvis Tribute Artist Al Joslin continues to keep the King of Rock and Roll’s legacy alive to bring joy to others.
What happens when you mix Y2K hysteria, campy death scenes and a cameo from The Kid Laroi? You get “Y2K,” a time capsule of chaotic fun that doesn’t take itself too seriously. This movie blends nostalgia, humor and a dash of absurdity into an unforgettable cinematic experience.
Ultimately, the film works. Whether you’re a “Wicked” expert or a first-time enjoyer, there are plenty of elements and moments in the film for you to love. I would advise doing a little preemptive research into the characters and songs before watching the film. But even without it, you will still be able to enjoy beautiful scenery, funny one-liners and musical numbers that will have you blasting the soundtrack on the drive home.
It’s upon us: the last Tunesday of the semester … and the year! Before we say goodbye and indulge in holiday festivities, here are some bops a bit off the beaten trail to explore as finals wrap up and as you journey home for the break.
For Golden, Colo., senior Jack Wheeler, a guitar club seemed like something that would have already been in place at Baylor. However, to his surprise, his assumption led him to discover there was no current guitar club at the university. So, eventually, he founded a club of his own.
On Dec. 10 at the Martin Museum of Art, a new exhibition titled “400 Degreez: The Act of Making Nothing Out of Something” will open featuring artist Vitus Shell. The exhibition will include work from his “Gold Everything” series and will also serve as a guided tour for CAE credit.
With a little ingenuity and some dedication, it’s easy to transform your dorm or apartment into a festive space without spending much. Grab a cup of hot cocoa, turn on your favorite holiday playlist and start decking the halls.
Now that they’re finally back from Thanksgiving break, many students might find it hard to get back on their grind. Hopefully, with the help of these good tunes, scholars will find it easier to lock in for the final push of the semester.
