If you do, then congratulations, you’re normal, and you have a great opportunity today: from 1 to 2 pm, Live at Lerner will be showcasing the folk music of “Bird Dog.” Come to the Lerner Piano Hall for the promised jams and snacks. RSVP to the Facebook event […]

CUMB–do you pronounce the B or not? The world may never know, but Bwog sent Dailier Finn Klauber to check out CUMB’s recruitment process last night. Last night’s events conveniently occurred at the same time as sorority rush. Gotta choose one or the other, we guess. Here’s the run-down. It’s a good thing I wasn’t […]

Give the Action Line at Ferris a break and feed both your body and soul (too cheesy?) with some live music today. Live At Lerner presents Lauv, a pop/R&B/indie artist who will perform songs from his new album “Lost in the Light.” It’ll be today (!), in the Piano Lounge of Lerner from 1 to 2 […]

Illegally lighting up your menorah is one thing, but what about sneaking a Christmas tree into your dorm? Bwog knows just how important holiday traditions are, and we’ve got you covered. Rite Aid on 110th has the trees, we have the answers. Here are five easy solutions we’ve compiled, à la WikiHow, on how to […]

Leave the barren cave that is your dorm room and celebrate the end, or near-end, of midterms with Live at Lerner’s inaugural fall outdoor concert. The concert will feature The Heydaze—a New York-based band with pop sensibilities and a recently released debut EP—so check them out! Opening for them will be two student bands: Blue Holidæ (mellow jams) […]

Deep in the abyss of John Jay Hall, a star is born. Just kidding, she was born in 1997. However, her highly-anticipated EP, Blood Girl, was not. In fact, Blood Girl was birthed from the fiery womb of creativity just about one month after its creator, Rachel Roth, arrived on Columbia’s campus. Rachel Roth, who […]

A Bwog staff writer and committed concertgoer delivers a slice of the sounds of the other John Adams of modern composition. John Luther Adams, a standout in the world of American composition and the recipient of Columbia’s William Schuman Award for 2015, closed out a three-concert series of performances this past Saturday at the Miller Theatre. “Extraordinary Listening: […]

Morgan Hughes, better known as Trill Mah, rose to Columbia music fame last Spring when she was selected as an opener for Bacchanal. Senior Staffer Briana caught up with the artist to see what she’s been up to this year with music and life. “I live on the fifth floor, so I’m sorry in advance for […]

Tuesday Daily Editor Briana “Badgalbribri” is back on this Wednesday afternoon to share some music that she’s been “thinkin about a lot lately.” Most of these songs were made years apart from one another, but their messages remain thematically consistent and particularly relevant right now. Hopefully, the lyrics and messages of these songs will inspire […]

On Saturday it was nearly 80 degrees and today it is right back down to 48 degrees. What’s good?? To boost your mood and warm your soul, Bwog’s personal DJ, Briana “Breezus,” brings some fresh beats you can jam to.   Although I prefer this season much more than everlasting winter, the unpredictable nature of spring can […]

Bold, beautiful, bro, Ross Chapman usually plays a brass instrument, but on Wednesday night he opted to sit back and listen. Heres what he got.   At our weekly meeting on Sunday, Bwog’s Arts Editor (through proxy) pitched a pair of concerts. I could either go to a performance of Bach on Tuesday or a recital […]

Spring break’s over. It’s somehow still cold. You’ve just flunked three consecutive midterms. Zayn left One Direction. We get it; March sucks. Here, our resident music aficionado and features editor Tatini Mal-Sarkar brings you precisely one hour’s worth of angry, angsty music to get you through these really terrible days. 1. Suffocation — Crystal Castles […]

An a Capella aficionado visited the joint concert of a Capella groups at schools that share “Bears” as a mascot. Alliteration with the letter “b,” punny group names, and a bucketload of talent guaranteed.  Last night, Barnard Bacchantae and the Brown Bear Necessities took to Low Steps for a short concert, serenading the school back from […]

The title was vague and the description even vaguer. Music, books, dreams, memories, computer generated sounds? What do all of these have in common? Bwog didn’t know either, so we sent Caroline Montgomery to report. On wednesday night, I traveled over to the Italian Academy, not really knowing what to expect. To be honest, I […]

Dance (let’s be realistic: awkwardly sway) away your midterm woes at this semester’s third Live at Lerner Sounds event in the Lerner Piano Lounge today from noon to 1 pm. This time they’ve got Plastic Cannons, an indie pop band based out of Brooklyn. (Hip!) As always, there will be free food as well: some offerings from this […]
