If you’ve been to a wedding at any point in the last decade, you’ve probably also developed an allergy to Bruno Mars and Ed Sheeran. Even though those top-40 pop hits are sure to get your aunt and uncle on the dance floor, nobody wants to see them try (and fail) to do dances that haven’t been popular since you were in middle school. Here’s what to play instead, slow songs included.

Houston junior and student musician Tryston Obevoen, also known as Sinoda, is set to release new music within the next few months.

It’s here. Finals week — the week we’ve all been dreading and a hopeful sign that the semester will soon be over.

This works for other tasks, like cleaning or anything similarly tedious. And if you’re a complete clown like me that ends up scrolling on my phone when I’m supposed to be working, bring a STEM major friend. They don’t mess around about studying.

Not to depress you or anything, but, not to worry — “Boyhood” is actually really upbeat, so you won’t get sad if you don’t listen to the lyrics. Just block it out, you guys.

“All Of The Girls You Loved Before” is a previously unreleased track from Taylor Swift’s 2019 album, “Lover.” It’s easy to see how this one fits the theme of that album. Warm, fuzzy and really romantic, “All Of The Girls You Loved Before” is Swift at her most content, most mature in terms of her songwriting.

If you’re in search of the week’s best new music, look no further. Here’s a short list of the music worth a listen to start your week off right.
