Forget what you’ve heard

Lizzi Holland March 24, 2011

I hate when the same song is played on the radio every half hour. It drives me crazy. I crave variety and I simply cannot stand it when only a handful of songs is played day after day. No bueno. If...

This Providence

Lizzi Holland March 3, 2011

Normally, when I broach the subject of “indie bands” I am greeted with a chorus of groans. The generic image of some “hipster” with a vintage T-shirt and a scarf also pops into many’s heads....

Pierce the Veil

Lizzi Holland February 25, 2011

Now let me just begin this with the fact that I’m a sucker for good lyrics. A catchy beat may be enough for some of you, but I’m not that type of music lover. The best songs are beyond the superficial...

Time to Panic! at the Disco

Lizzi Holland February 17, 2011

Tunes for the blues

Lizzi Holland February 11, 2011

Fountains of Wayne

Lizzi Holland February 4, 2011

Have you ever listened to a band and thought, “Why the heck is this band not mainstream? They have the talent, so why not the publicity?” I have, and most likely all of you have as well. The sad truth...

Party like a Millionaire

Lizzi Holland January 27, 2011

Parties need to have a certain vibe. Listening to smooth jazz won’t cut it. Neither will heavy metal. Neither will screamo. Or love songs. Or folk music. Or Indian spirituals. All you need is something...

Band program gets back in the swing of things

Lizzi Holland January 27, 2011

The snow fall not only canceled school last week, it canceled after school activities. Among the activities canceled was the A-Band’s performance at the girls home basketball game against Holt High...

I’ll put a spell on you

Lizzi Holland January 20, 2011

Unrequited love is probably one of the most notorious music genres. Sappy, cheesy love songs are present everywhere, the worst being wanna-be country stars practically whining into a microphone as someone...

Fasten your seat belts; it’s going to be a bumpy ride

Lizzi Holland January 13, 2011

Hello guys and dolls. I’m assuming that you know that I’m Lizzi Holland, but you know what they say about assuming. I’m new to Francis Howell Central, coming from McCluer North, and I must say I...
