Modern Baseball scores big with ̶...
Rookie band Modern Baseball could have easily tried to create an album that is deep, introspective and trendy, but instead they made a collection of songs about relationships, friends and growing up. I could not be more pleased with the results. “Sports” is the band’s first full-length release, and hopefully not their last.
Frontman Brendan L [...]
Music professor shows musical prowess...
Dr. Lane Weaver may quite possibly be one of the busiest men on the campus of Fort Hays. When he’s not conducting Symphonic Winds or Brass Choir, he’s probably writing drill charts for the Marching Tigers or giving a private lesson to his large studio of trombonists, euphonium players and tubists. While he also stays busy with his family and [...]

If there’s something Luke Johnson has a greater passion for than his Monster energy drinks, it has to be the timeless form of music known as jazz. Whether he is taking his turn conducting our very own Jazz II Ensemble, plucking away at the bass in Jazz I or performin [...]

There are some people who consider pop-punk a very generic and bland genre. Who can blame them? With so many bands that want to be New Found Glory or blink-182 sound-alikes, it’s easy for good representations of pop-punk to get lost in the mire by casual listeners and critics alike. This is definitely not the case with The Story So Far.

FHSU band displays immense talent at ...
In my one and a half years at Fort Hays State University, I’ve noticed a lot of interesting things. I’ve noticed that raccoons in Hays are freakishly huge, walking to the third floor of Rarick Hall can practically be your workout for the day, and oriental students are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. The biggest thing I’ve noticed [...]
Seriously, Don’t Stop Please
To fully understand and appreciate how great — or not great — a band is, you have to see it live. Live music tells all. It exhibits the band’s talent, energy and charisma — or like I said, lack of it. Fortunately, Don’t Stop Please was overflowing with all three last night.
Gellas Diner and L.b. Brewing Co. opene [...]

Start making room in your wallets now. A couple years down the line, you’ll most likely be buying a couple singles or an album from The Gallery. The future kings of Los Angeles radio have just released their album, “Restless,” and they’re destined to start making waves in the music scene.
If you haven’t heard of The Gallery, you certainly are [...]
