Hey!! I’m Elle Simmons, the station’s programming director for the fall.

Revolution Playlist

Black Lives Matter.

In the past week, we’ve watched a powerful uprising unfold across our nation. Although the recent protests were sparked by the recent cruel and unjust murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and others, they are a response to the systemic racism that is intrinsic to this country’s history. Black Lives Matter. As a… Read More

Letter of Recommendation: Spotify Stalking

Many of you know the joys of Spotify stalking first-hand. This is my personal take on the widespread (I think) social phenomenon.

An indie/folk/rock-ish/really good musician from LA, Phoebe Bridgers was Kate’s favorite artist of the moment (and of all time, claims Kate). At the time, I was bouncing around listening to new kinds of music instead of my normal classic rock… Read More

IGOR: Tyler’s Toxic Antihero

When I decided to make a post about Tyler the Creator’s latest album, IGOR, I revisited the album and listened to it from start to finish multiple times throughout the week.
