A sampler of recent tunes by current students and alumni.

About two years ago, during the halcyon days of this blog’s youth, we took the temperature of the Kenyon music scene, so to speak, and wound up with a compilation called “The Kenyon Sound.” The figurative thermometer gave us a reading that was all over the place: cold electronic textures and beats were found side by side with warmer, more acoustic and vocal pieces, by students and alumni alike.

ICE CREAM SOCIAL: YOU’RE INVITED Free Ice Cream!? Is this real life!? I have to RSVP? I can’t make any promises; I may still be asleep at 6:00 pm on Sunday.

Grillin’ And Chillin’ Is this about grilled cheese or grillz? This is a very important distinction. I want to bring back grillz, people. I would look so fly. Continue reading →
