Over the past couple of years, I’ve become a huge fan of Australian artist Kofi Owusu-Ansah, better known as Genesis Owusu. I find his music exciting because he transcends genres across his albums, seamlessly blending hip-hop, punk, R&B and pop into a cohesive piece of art.

It’s been one month since the start of my senior year, and one of my goals for this year is to explore more of Music City before I leave. I decided to venture out on a Sunday night to Marathon Music Works to try out a new concert venue. The act for the night was The Midnight, a synthwave group based in Los Angeles.
