Inspiration Through Music

Inspiration Through Music

Written By Alex Muccino

          About three years ago my friends and I started a cover band called Saving Escape, we started by practicing in a small basement with nothing but an electronic drum kit and a couple of acoustic guitars. We took every gig opportunity we could get, anywhere from playing our friend's backyard house parties, to being the background music for small events in our hometown. We spent the first year trying to find our sound, what we wanted to be. We started off playing really... really bad green day covers, and really anything to hit the top 100's on Kiss 107. 
          As the years went on and our experience of playing new venues expanded we found the artists that gave us our inspiration, Jimi Hendrix, The Black Keys, The Beatles, etc... these artists don't even start to scratch the surface of the broad range of musicians that keep us inspired every day.
          Now I am proud to say that Saving Escape has played my dream venue (Bogart's) three times now and we are currently in Sonic Lounge Studios in Columbus recording on our first studio E.P. Now a days there is little to nothing that inspires me as much as playing music every day, and somehow every sort of art or visual design ties back to being in a band. 

Here's a video of us playing a cover of Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes in 2016:

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Malena Bozzini         Malena Bozzini is a sophomore college student studying psychology. As her passion she is an artist. Her work is so original and abstract in order to dramatize her figures. She creates art out of emotion and uses her feelings to choose color and shape. One of the most interesting facts is that all of her pieces are done with colored pencils. Her art is so expressive that each piece gives out its own vibe. What makes her art unique is that it is inspired by motion and gestures. It is amazing how she developed such a style at such a young age.  Instagram @ malenabozzini

The Art Of Trevor Henderson

Hello everyone! today I'm going to talk about one of my favorite Instagram artists, Trevor Henderson! The reason why I like Trevor Henderson's art is that I really like how disturbing and creepy is art is. Here are a few examples of some of his art.
