New Music New Places!

Before

I had a great time at New Music New Places last night with Tim Chaisson and Poor Young Things! I had not heard of the bands before the show so I did some quick YouTubing to know what I was getting into. I found some great singles that they played last night and had fun singing along to 'slipping away' with the live band.

After

I love that the show was in a part of campus that I have not explored yet. The SA and SAO did a great job transforming this bright bland study area into a comfy relaxing acoustic set. The whole show was very intimate and cozy. The chairs and lighting in the Student Commons really helped create a great atmosphere. I'm very interested to see what spaces are transformed next semester. 

Oh and I almost left out a key element, the show was free! So me and the other students that attended saw an intimate acoustic show with local bands, after class, for free! What a great way to see a show on a budget!

I love this event because I am constantly looking for new local bands to support. These bands offer a great change from the usual top 40 hits you hear on the radio.

All in all I had a great time, discovered some new music, and found a new study zone for exam time!
