Like clockwork, hundreds of students will spend Friday day-drinking because of tradition, partying and tradition. In the same vein of tradition and misguided decisionmaking, the University has once again issued their strict warning to students, daring them to even think about it. Relationships this healthy seem so rare nowadays. The issue with Unofficial isn’t the public intoxication, underage drinking, or even the racist caricature of Irish culture. The real issue with Unofficial St. Patrick’s Day is that the University has zero control over it. Ironically, the more forceful Housing's warnings and discipline become, the more appealing the holiday becomes in the eyes of students. If insanity is trying the same thing over and over again but expecting different results, it may be time for the University to consider embracing the mess they have inherited and/or created. I envision a better alternative: a University-sanctioned, local-business-supporting, safety-enforcing street festival. Block off Green Street between Wright and Fifth (or Fourth, or hell, include The Red Lion and extend all the way to Third). In a true collaborative effort to keep revelers safe, the University could partner with campus bars and restaurants to make Unofficial work for them. They could charge admission and provide wristbands to those who are under 19, between 19 and 20, or 21+. Weather permitting, live music would be pretty cool. Tackling the rest of campustown would be a tougher task, but if a culture of responsbility sprung up along Green Street, it would surely only be a matter of time before it spread to the surrounding neighborhood. Maybe the University’s stamp of approval on Unofficial would make the fake holiday so lame no one would celebrate it any longer. Just kidding, that would never happen. And the University would probably never go for the plan I described – as much as they publicly deride the day, I am sure there is a great deal of private support from Alumni and the Greek community. At the very least, the University should stop pretending that they want Unofficial to go away and instead focus on minimizing the numbers of tickets and arrests, and reducing the risk of alcohol poisoning and death. We at buzz will do what we can to help, and to this end we have included below some phone numbers that may come in handy today. May the Force be with you.

»TEA WITH LEMON I don't know why putting a slice of lemon in tea makes it taste so much better (science? magic?) but it totally does. Take a mediocre tea and pair it with lemon and BAM: not quite as mediocre.

SPRING AHEAD LEAH PAREKH What is the closest you will ever get to time traveling to the future? Daylight Savings, of course! This Sunday, March 8, Daylight Savings Time will begin at 2 a.m., meaning our clocks will “spring forward” to 3 a.m. (until it ends at 2 a.m. on Nov. 8). Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is the hour of sleep we lose. However, there’s an upside: An extra hour of daylight that we would normally have in the morning will be in the evening! This means no more gloomy, dark sky bringing us down when it’s only 5 p.m. Another added bonus for all the environmental folk is that Daylight Savings saves more than just daylight: it saves energy. Due to less need for lighting and appliances, the country’s electricity usage decreases. So this Daylight Savings, turn those lights off and get outside to enjoy the extra hour of daylight you’ve been given!

If you're anything like me, then you need serious incentive to leave the womblike warmth of your bed for the frozen wasteland that is Champaign-Urbana in the morning. The only way I've been able to conquer the crushing despair of having to throw off my covers and embrace the pain has been the thought of biting into the delightuflly saccharine, squishily soft donuts in my pantry, a mere ten paces away. The resulting sugar rush from these chewy delights and the warmth I feel in my belly as the tasty treat stretches out and settles there for the next few days is mind-numbing enough to propel me through the rest of my day.

»Haddaway's "What Is Love" The quintessential lovemaking track of the early 90s as rated by Cosmo, it's incredibly disconcerting that future generation's won't be able to create another masterpiece like this crown jewel of American musicianship and aural euphoria. Clocking in at an objectively perfect 4 minutes and 29 seconds, we may not be sure if the existential question of "what is love?" will ever be answered. And that's just the way Mr. Haddaway intended when his Midas voice graced the recording studio on that fateful August '93 day.

erotic book adaptation Fifty Shades of Grey has finally arrived in theaters after months of hype and controversy. If you’re not familiar with the story, it centers on a relationship between a virginal college graduate and a BDSMobsessed billionaire who unexpectedly fall for one another. Since this movie is certainly one of kind, I felt that it would be appropriate to review it in a unique fashion: thus, below I’ve listed my thoughts about the kinky drama.

1 2 3 4

Fifty Shades of Grey is five hundred shades of boring.

5

She transforms an annoying character into one with dimensions and a sense

The movie is more thinly plotted than a porno. You will literally be asking, “When does the story kick in?”

Dakota Johnson, who plays the female protagonist (if you can call her that) Anastasia Steele, gives an excellent debut performance.

of humor.

6

All references to Ana’s “inner goddess” are gone, and readers of the book will be grateful.

7

Jamie Dornan is disappointing as Christian Grey. His performance is wooden and one-note.

8 9 10

Even so, his body and mysterious, serial killer-like stare are on point.

11 12

Christian Grey plays melancholy ballads on the piano. *Eye roll*

What does Christian actually do to make all of that money?

Christian’s apartment is about as decorated and colorful as the movie itself; in other words, bland and devoid of personality.

There is more chemistry between Ana’s roommate, Kate, and the sandwich she eats out of Ana’s hands than between the film’s two leads.

13

The writers borrow lines directly from the poorly written source material, which makes the dialogue painstakingly cheesy at times.

14

You might be convinced that Fifty Shades is a rom-com because you’ll be laughing so hard at these exchanges.

15 16

Who still has a flip phone?

Why didn’t Christian buy Ana a smart phone before he bought her first editions of her favorite novels, a laptop and a car?

17

Ana’s first experience with oral sex in the bathtub from the book has been axed, and there are no references to her “very own Christian Grey-flavored popsicle.” *Praise hands emoji*

18 19

Christian: “I want to f*ck you into the middle of next week.” Need I say more?

When Christian and Ana take a walk in the woods, was anyone else’s first thought, “Twilight”?

20

There was more nudity in Borat, Bruno and Observe and Report to name a few films. Fifty Shades is child’s play in comparison.

21

There are only two scenes that involve any sort of BDSM, so don’t walk into the movie expecting dungeon porn.

22 23 24

Edward and Bella in Breaking Dawn have rougher sex than Christian and Ana. If Christian Grey’s sex is that tame, then there is truly no hope for the rest of us.

The scene in which Christian and Ana fly a glider and do some flips is about as exciting as the movie gets.

25

If my boyfriend of two weeks traveled from Seattle all the way to Georgia to see me when I simply texted him, “Wish you were here,” I would call 9-11.

26 27

But really, Dakota Johnson carries the movie. It would be nice to see her in a good film.

I.D.E.A Store Hatch Festival Organizer, Gail Rost. Photo by Alyssa Abay

CHAMPAIGN-URBANA’S

Hatch Festival is the only creative reuse art festival in Illinois. Now in its third year, Hatch is produced by The I.D.E.A. Store, a creative reuse marketplace that serves as an earned-income enterprise of the Champaign Urbana Schools Foundation (CUSF). buzz talked with Gail Rost, Co-Chair of Hatch, to find out what makes it so unique. buzz» As a lead-in to talking about Hatch, what exactly is The I.D.E.A. Store? Gail Rost» The I.D.E.A. Store is a retail store that sells items for creative reuse—and sometimes very practical reuse—that might otherwise have gone to the landfills… The money that’s earned from the I.D.E.A. store goes back to support the Champaign Urbana Schools Foundation—we call it CUSF—and that supports K-12 (education) in Champaign-Urbana. So it’s what we call an earnedincome enterprise. It was designed to support pub-

lic (education), and it sells old stuff or what might be trash or what might be thrown away and (sent) to the landfill to earn that money. buzz» It sounds like it serves a very useful purpose in the community. GR» Absolutely, the community’s just been very supportive of it. It’s in its fourth year, and it’s doing very well. We’re definitely filling a niche here. buzz» Good to hear! Now… what is Hatch? And how did the idea to have a creative reuse festival come about? Did you just think this was the best way to promote The I.D.E.A. Store’s role as a creative reuse marketplace? GR» Exactly. One of the things that we wanted to do to ensure the sustainability of the store was to create a market so that people would realize that they can... work with and use creative reuse items. So we needed to go through an educational process with the community to help them understand what (creative reuse) is. One of the things that’s really fun is to do something like a “Trashion Show.” The

whole festival itself has erupted from that… buzz» It sounds like it implements it in a better way [than what we usually see with these kinds of events] because it allows people to access it—the idea of creative reuse—in a way that they might think is more applicable to their lives, separate from charity or (even community). GR» Yeah, and you know that’s really important. We’ve heard so many times about recycling but reuse is actually a little better than recycling if you want to get right down to it. And what it does, by teaching people to think about objects in a different way, is take away the punitive response. I mean, you get scolded all the time, right? “Oh, you’re going to throw that away, you better recycle.” We don’t want to make people feel bad. We want to give them the time to realize that there are actually some very useful things that can be done with items that usually end up in the garbage. So this is one way to make it fun and to raise the profile of I.D.E.A., and that’s what Hatch really is all about. We also have an exhibition of artistic items that are really high quality… art pieces by many artists. Then we have a fair, which is where crafters and… multiple item-type designers are making things for sale. The fair also looks at the world differently with creative reuse - everything from clothing to jewelry to household items and that kind of stuff. And then we’ve got a music night where people are making music with electric waste, so that’s going to be really cool. It isn’t just “junk.” buzz» Yeah, one of the things that I really appreciate about things like Hatch is that: A lot of emphasis today, with the Capitalist society that we live in, is on the new. Presenting something that we are able to reuse in a way that looks just as functional (and is just as functional) as something new is something that we definitely need. GR» Yeah, no kidding. I mean, there is a finite limit to what we can create. And if we don’t learn how interrupt the waste stream with “reuse,” there (are) going to be serious consequences (to) that. I think… we haven’t made that (idea) accessible to everybody. Back in the day, with our older people—especially during World War II—“reuse” was common. There weren’t many new things being churned out. And you know, our grandparents… would reuse clothing over and over again until there was nothing left. We are not that society anymore, we’re a consumptive society, so it’s important that we understand that we’re going to be mining our own garbage. And in fact, that’s already happening. buzz» Very cool. I like the tie-in to history there. As a (very) loose segue from history, I was wondering how this year’s festival was (going to be) different

from the two that you’ve had in the past. GR» A lot of the things are the same because we know that they’re working. We’ve got our festival, we have the art fair on the 14 (of March), then we have our exhibition that runs for two weeks and our Artists-in-Residence. This year, we are bringing mostly new artists to the whole event. We have a new Artist-in-Residence that we’ve never had before, who places an emphasis on jewelry, which we’ve never done. We’re (also) doing what’s called a Hatch Clatch and that is going to be an event just for art teachers at the store. We’re bringing in a lecturer to talk about reuse and showing a couple of fun things that they can do with their students. buzz» One of the things that impresses me about the entire event is how many people you’ve been able to coordinate to come to Champaign-Urbana. How much work does that entail? GR» It’s a lot of work and is all done by volunteers. We raise money from supporters to help bring our Artists-in-Residence, but all of the work is being done by volunteers - all of the graphic work, all of the coordination, all of the schedules. We have a community of very dedicated people who are willing to help. I throw that out there, too, we are definitely looking for a couple more people to serve on the steering committee, so if they’re interested, they should give me a call or send me an email… In terms of the number of people who come, we know we have a small target population in this area so we spread it out over time so the same people can participate in all of our events. We hope to attract new people too. buzz» In attracting new people and continuing to attract new people, where do you see Hatch—or indeed, The I.D.E.A. Store—going from here? GR» Well, I think creative reuse will eventually become a routine for all people. And they’ll come to the store, not so much as a novelty—“Wow, I can’t believe they sell these things”—to “Gee, I need to go get this because they have stuff that I want, and they have quality items.” In terms of the festival, I think the most important part of it is probably the education (events). People will always need to learn about this, so I (think) that we’ll continue to work on ways we can demystify the whole creative reuse process. buzz» In one line, could you explain why readers of buzz Magazine should go to the Hatch Creative Reuse Fesitval? GR» Well, it’s the only thing like this happening in the state of Illinois! How could you possibly miss it? The Hatch Festival began on Feb. 26 and runs through March 14. March 6-12, 2015 buzz 5

WHEN

was the last time you read a comic book? Growing up, the comics were my favorite section in the local newspapers, and I can recall plenty of times that the Cyanide and Happiness strips made me laugh. However, I can count the number of times I’ve picked up an actual graphic novel on one hand. In my experience, people tend to forget about graphic novels as a genre or don’t even realize that it’s its own genre at all. But not only do graphic novels offer incredibly talented artwork and stylistic value,

6 buzz March 6-12, 2015

but they also have intriguing storylines, lessons and histories (because yes, graphic novels can be non-fiction!). Fortunately, the Urbana Free Library, located at 210 W. Green St. in downtown Urbana, is home to a fantastic graphic novel collection. With its wide range of books, whether you’re looking for something serious and informative or something more light-hearted and fun, you’re bound to find a graphic novel (or a few) that fits your mood.

“Many readers just aren’t aware of the diversity and depth of this format. It’s not just comic strips about superheroes. There are wonderful non-fiction works and great novels available in graphic format,” Mary Wilkes Towner, interim director of Adult Services at the library said. To help your search even more, whether you’re brand new to the world of graphic novels or an old-time enthusiast, the Urbana Free Library will be holding multiple graphic novelrelated events this week and next as a part of

its “Get Graphic” week. “We are thrilled to introduce three authors all involved in the comic world. We have a wonderful collection that we want to highlight and let our patrons know more about. Graphic novels and comics in general are increasingly popular and can be just as enriching a reading experience as a book that strictly presents text,” Towner said. “We are presenting three diverse programs involving comics and graphic novels, which we hope will attract a wide variety of ages and interests.”


&20081,7< The first event will take place on this Saturday, March 7, with “Comics and Comix and Graphic Novels & Damian Duffy”. The public is invited to join local author Damian Duffy, who will be discussing his 15 years in drawing, writing, lettering, studying and curating art for comics. He deals with topics such as identity politics, the media, adaptation and collaboration. Duffy is the author of The Hole: Consumer Culture, Black Comix: African American Comics Art & Culture and Kid Code: Channel Zero. This event will take place in the Urbana Free Library Lewis Auditorium from 4 to 5 p.m. This session is for teens and adults. “Animating Epics: An Evening with Nina Paley” is the week’s next event, happening on Monday, March 9. Nina Paley is a cartoonistturned-animator who rose to popularity after her 2009 feature film Sita Sings the Blues, a cartoon-musical based on the Hindu epic Ramayana. Currently, she is working on a feature titled Seder-Masochism and pulls from her Abrahamic religion for inspiration. At the event, Paley will show video clips and discuss her solo animation process, interpreting religious texts and whether culture can be “owned.” “Animating Epics” will take place in the Urbana Free Library Auditorium from 7 to 8:30 p.m.; this event is for adults. Lastly, on Saturday, March 14, the library will be hosting “Wonder Woman: Bondage and Feminism.” I recently learned that the creator of Wonder Woman, William Marston, was a soft-porn pulp novelist whose greatest passions included feminism and women in bondage. Through his comics of Wonder Woman, he was able to express these passions of his. On March 14, Noah Berlatsky, author of Wonder Woman: Bondage and Feminism in the Marston/Peter Comics, 1941—1948, will examine this more closely as he discusses his afore-

Graphic novels close-up at the Urbana Free Library. Urbana, IL. March 3, 2015. Photo by Tiffany Lam

mentioned new book and explores some of the most politically and sexually-daring comics ever created for audiences of all ages. Berlatsky is a contributing writer at The Atlantic and also writes for Pacific Standard, Reason, Splice Today and various other publications. He is the editor of the online comics-and-culture website The Hooded Utilitarian. There will be a book signing following his talk and copies of his book will also be available for purchase for $20. The event will take place at the Urbana Free Library MacFarlane-Hood Reading Room from 4 to 5:30 p.m.; this session is for mature audiences only.

When asked what she hopes attendees will take away from these discussions, Towner said, “a better understanding of this rich format. We provide graphic novels, collected comic strips, manga and more. And, the age range covers children, teens and adults.” If you’re still not sure where to start, Joel Spencer, the Library’s Adult/Teen Services librarian, recommends Maus: A Survivor’s Tale by Art Spiegelman. Spencer describes it as a “historical graphic novel about WWII and the Holocaust, yet a very powerful and amusing memoir.” Towner also recommends two others: Tamara

Drewe by Posy Simmonds and The Arrival by Shaun Tan. “Compiled from strips originally published in the Guardian, (Tamara Drewe) highlights life in an artist’s retreat set in the midst of the sleepy, middle-class English countryside. The Arrival is a wordless graphic novel with stunning graphics. The unfamiliar signage and unusual creatures, combined with authenticlooking portraits, highlight the strangeness that immigrants feel in new countries.” The Urbana Free Library is located at 210 W. Green St. in downtown Urbana.

STEADFAST

in their commitment to local farms and local ingredients, bacaro shifted with the seasons and introduced their new “Winter 2015� menu in late January. While winter, indeed, may not be the season most closely associated with abundance, Head Chef and owner Thad Morrow has crafted some 15 plates—available as prix fixe options or, in part, as a tasting—reflecting the very best nature has to offer. While my dining partner and I both opted for the $85, seven-course tasting menu as the best way to sample the wide variety of new compositions, we chose to supplement the set menu with one, additional dish we absolutely had to try: wagyu beef stew. If there is a dish better-suited for cold weather, I have not found it: smoked potatoes and roasted carrots stewed in and infused with an intensely flavorful, aromatic beef broth that is bejeweled with chunks of unspeakably-tender braised beef. Then, in case there is any question as to how exactly you get every drop of that superlative stew into your mouth, two pieces of bone marrow crostini are provided, forming just about the best scarpetta imaginable to mop the bowl clean. An enchanting way to begin the meal, and something everyone should go in and sample while it is still being offered. Our tasting menu proper began with beets. Not syrupy, gelatinous monstrosities, but glisten-

ing, buttered beets with a rich sweetness and earthy flavor that truly marks the fresh variety as altogether dissimilar from whatever lurks inside those cans. Orange and pistachio played to and enunciated the dish’s sweeter side while a bed of barely and some bright, curried olive puree rounded out the heartiness. Few would choose the beet as the frontispiece of their menu, but Morrow succeeds in an opening dish that celebrates the full depth of the root’s flavor while warming cold stomachs. Moving from the humble beet, the next two dishes shifted towards one of the restaurant’s perennial strengths: seafood. First, steamed Prince Edward Island mussels: bivalves so fundamentally good and tasty, you just need to help them peek out of their shells. Ours were plump and tender, served with a broth composed of cured egg yolk, bacon, parsley and harissa (for spice). Not only did the “egg and bacon� make for a playful accompaniment, but the use of the yolk also helped build richness without sacrificing the overall brightness of the fresh shellfish. On the opposite end of the spectrum, octopus: notoriously difficult to cook and get that balance of chew to tenderness. Here, Morrow braises his, serving the tendrils alongside farfalle, scallions, fireball salumi and red sauce. The cephalopod had just the right amount of aforementioned chew and formed an interesting partner to the bowtie

pasta’s own mouthfeel. Though it was hard to exactly distinguish the “fireball� flavor of the salumi, the preparation was overall impressive. If winter dining is about satisfying, flavorful wish fulfi llment, bacaro’s tasting menu reaches just the right apex with its final two savory courses. Transitioning from all that seafood came a beautiful piece of fish: seared wild striped bass. Robust and juicy, the bass stood up to its garlic vinaigrette and melded nicely with stewed Brussels sprouts and a wonderful, intensely flavorful mushroom ragu. For the carnivorously inclined, a prime strip steak with rainbow chard, potato chips, celery root cream and garlic rosemary oils. A touch bitter, crunchy, creamy and umami all in equal parts, the steak plays perfectly with the other flavor notes on the plate. You might think you want a heap of mashed potatoes with your steak, but bacaro’s thoughtful plating offers a more adventurous— and more distinctly seasonal—combination. As someone who eats Parmigiano-Reggiano by the pound–no bread, no crackers, sometimes bitten straight off the rind–the penultimate course proved a special treat. A gleaming shard of the cow’s milk cheese sat aside two warm rounds of bread and an accompaniment of oozing, sticky Bacaro honey from the bees on the restaurant’s own roof. If the presentation was unassuming, it is only because the kitchen knows what a good,

simple pleasure they are serving. Fluffy, crumbly, piquant and richly sweet in perfect harmony, Bacaro’s continued, affectionate embrace of the “cheese course� remains a welcome sight. Dessert was just as much of a classic: flourless chocolate cake. Though the simplicity and restraint of the dish begs diners to underestimate it, the reality—like the cheese course before it— underlines why exactly the classics are so good. Tall and proud with a wonderful raised crust, the sliver of cake is enrobed in the traditional blanket of powdered sugar and served passion fruit coulis. For its size, the dessert is deceptively (and wonderfully) decadent. The rich cocoa flavor melts onto the tongue before being cut naturally by the sweetness of the sugar and the vibrant, tart twang of the passion fruit. It is just the sort of homey high note worthy of closing off such an excellent meal. bacaro’s winter menu is an unabashed, bold-flavored reminder that good food knows no season. It captures just the type of rustic fare one wants when trekking in out of the snow while showcasing the kitchen’s fine dining gravitas. It’s the sort of food that doesn’t just make you ask for another helping but for six more weeks of winter. bacaro’s “Winter 2015� menu continues to run Tuesday through Sunday. The restaurant is located at 113 N. Walnut St. in downtown Champaign. Reservations can be made by calling 398-6982 or at http://bacarowinelounge.com. March 6-12, 2015 buzz 9

LOCAL POWER RANKINGS

EX]] LQWURGXFHV LWV PRQWKO\ DVVHVVPHQW RI WKH &8 PXVLF VFHQH BUZZ WEEKLY STAFF The Champaign-Urbana music scene is made up of a varied mix of artists who are making an impact across the Midwest and beyond, but most importantly are affecting the CU scene here. A grab bag of bands displaying the depth and history behind the twin cities they’ve emerged from, CU artists are mostly merited and always many. buzz Magazine’s local power rankings will appear every month on readbuzz.com, giving insight into CU artists on the rise.

1

FERAL STATES

It’s no secret that Krannert Center for the Performing Arts houses some of the greatest stages an artist can perform on, and it’s so conveniently located in the center of campus, just within view from the Quad. Putting on a performance in the Foellinger Great Hall may be grand, but the stage’s perfect acoustics will not do all of the work. In fact, no mistake will go unheard in such a room as opposed to a crowded bar stage where it may be difficult to h has proven to have perfected their performance when the band played an original composition by frontman Joe Meland titled “Fauve.” The band is even in the works to perform the composition in St. Louis now. And although they may not be able to recreate this exact performance at any other venue, you can imagine the amount of rigorous rehearsal time that went into it and how that has helped the band grow collectively as performers and musicians—something undoubtedly transferrable to any stage. Expect nothing less than perfection from future shows by Feral States. –Westley Banks

2

T.R.U.T.H

Last month, local emcee T.R.U.T.H asserted her role as one of the most prominent hip-hop artists in the CU area with the release of her Eve EP at The Canopy Club. Eve was the result of several years of scholarship in Gender and Women Studies as well as personal growth. The closing track, “Our Land,” is one of the most underrated CU tracks of 2015 so far. It’s evident that for the University of Illinois Alumni, who has put on a number of shows already in 2015, this year has begun with a firm declaration for the local hip-hop scene: The power of femininity has always had a place in hip-hop and it will continue to do so. –Elizabeth Morales

BOBBY LANE’S SKETCHBOOK

In complete honesty, CU has a severely underrated jazz music scene in recent years. Emerging from it with force comes Bobby Lane’s Sketchbook, the jazz quintet that has been making waves before and after their pristine self-titled debut in late January. They most recently collaborated with artist Stephanie Warren for a unique performance at the Institute 4 Creativity and, without a doubt, will be continuing to enlighten audiences with their improvised music for a while. –Westley Banks

4

BONES JUGS N HARMONY

Bones Jugs N Harmony has been steadily increasing in popularity since their formation in 2012, but their 2014 debut album Party’s in the Kitchen propelled the band to profound local heights, with over 150 live performances in all. The uniqueness of instruments incites a curiosity as to what household object will be used next and the often fast-paced vocals maintain the attention of the crowd. With the band on a February-March tour, travelling into the southern states, the band will likely return to Illinois in full stride. –Jessica Gonzalez

5

CHURCH BOOTY

6

THE FIGHTS

Church Booty has without a doubt taken off within the past year, releasing their self-titled EP in mid2014 and riding the wave they’ve caused off smooth live performances since, earning them a spot at this year’s Summer Camp Music Festival. The band’s bond and groove has the funk group creating an unfathomable amount of energy every time they step on stage. –Maddy Marsan

The Fights are embarking on a slew of shows within the coming weeks. Performing to a large crowd at Cowboy Monkey last Friday, The Fights continue to perform tracks from buzz Magazine’s Best Album of 2014, Off Your Horse, while teasing new material throughout their shows. The band has been spreading their alt-country charm from Chicago to Iowa City. After their newfound success in 2014, the five-piece band has been doing everything you can ask from a band climbing up the ranks, expanding their reach and showing off the tracks from an album that has propelled them to a deserved status, in hopeful preparation for another round in the coming year or so. –Kailey Helgesen

7

KOWABUNGA! KID

8

TELEPATH

After a relatively inactive nine months, Kowabunga! Kid reasserted their presence in the CU music scene with a dominant showing at Dingbat Dungeon last Saturday. With the debut of the ever-reliable Jake Mott on drums, the band played a set comprised mostly of new material, much to the delight of an energized crowd. With more shows and a new LP on the horizon, Kowabunga! Kid is one of CU’s most promising punk acts. –Elias J. Tracy

The bedroom synth project from Urbana’s Brian Olek gained steam in midFebruary on bandcamp. com, but with the artist’s refusal to put on live performances transfers the dependency of remaining relevant on consistently releasing new music—a difficult task for any artist, despite the means of production. Telepath will need a major boost through Internet popularity or an unfathomable output to keep up with an ever-evolving scene. –Sean Neumann

THE DIRTY FEATHERS

Brandon Beachum’s drone project Marathon has taken on a new life in the past few months, implementing the unique concept of a “guitarkestra” to the mix and elevating the band to nine members. Marathon’s volume stretches nearly as far as its ambition, making Beachum and Co. a project to expect impressive performances from in the coming months. –Sean Neumann

It’s been a while since the last Dirty Feathers release— about three and a half years, to be exact. They’ve generally been keeping quiet, with their only recent show being their performance as Pink Floyd at the Great Cover Up earlier this year, but with chance of a new release coming soon, one of CU’s most entertaining live bands may be revived from a slow couple of years. In addition to the band’s recent announcement of a SXSW show on March 14 in Austin, Texas with HUM and Common Loon, 2015 is already looking great for the boys of Dirty Feathers. –Danny Stankus March 6-12, 2015 buzz 11
