There are many phenomenal musicians in the world, but very few as diverse and cultured as Dave Matthews. Matthews was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1967. Matthews and his family then moved two years later to Westchester County, New York, where his dad went to work for IBM. Then, in the early `70s, Matthews and his family moved to Cambridge, England, before returning to New York. It was in Cambridge where Matthews' dad died in 1977 from Hodgkin's disease. After his father's death, the family moved back to South Africa in 1980. It was here that Matthews went to a few different schools and learned more about the evils of government, there and in general.

The Cincinnati Musical Center half dollar is a commemorative coin that was authorized on March 31, 1936, and struck by the United States Bureau of the Mint that year. Produced with the stated purpose of commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of Cincinnati as a center of music, it was conceived by Thomas G. Melish, a coin enthusiast whose group bought the entire issue from the government, and who resold them at high prices. Melish had hired sculptor Constance Ortmayer to design the coin, but the Commission of Fine Arts objected to Stephen Foster being on the obverse, finding no connection between Foster, who died in 1864, and the supposed anniversary. Nevertheless, 5,000 sets of three coins, one from each of the three mints, were issued and

I got the chance to attend FIU’s third annual music festival on the Biscayne Bay Campus lawns by the bay. FIU Bayfest 2017 was a multiple genre music festival that featured six groups and artists. The artist A-Boogie Wit Da Hoodie headlined the concert. The performers that opened for A-Boogie Wit Da Hoodie included Kiddo Marv, Gabel Pix, Mr. Vegas, and Sweet Micky. Kiddo Marv, Gabel Pix, and Sweet Micky were Haitian performers. They sung their songs in Haitian-creole. Mr. Vegas was a Jamaican artist and A-Boogie Wit Da Hoodie was an American artist. I could understand all the performers because I am an American of Haitian and Jamaican descent. I knew of Kiddo Marv and A-Boogie Wit Da Hoodie prior to the attendance of the concert.

Anyone familiarized with grunge music can agree that the genre skyrocketed in popularity in the 90’s, due to bands such as Radiohead, Nirvana, and most importantly Pearl Jam. From the beginning of Seattle’s early grunge scene rose a band that would go on to make multi-platinum albums, tour the world, and use their platform to express their own beliefs. Pearl Jam, in spite of their fame, prefer to use their art to reflect their values and use their platform to convey their activist beliefs. Starting in Seattle’s grunge scene, Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament started work on a demo tape after their band, Mother Love Bone, split after the tragic death of lead singer Andrew Wood. They recorded most of the tape without vocals, in hopes for finding

Sonic Youth was influenced by a lot of things from the city they lived in to the composer John Cage. John Cage was non for his crazy music made out of random objects found lying around, and Sonic Youth really took a hold of that style. I thought what you said about noise not being distinguished between music was interesting, because I think that, that is the biggest thing impression Sonic Youth left on the alternative world. How much of an influence do you think New York City had on the band? Based on the book i think that New York had a really big influence on them because of the artist world of the New York underground. I also believe that their music is a lot like New York, because it is loud and interesting and made from many different
