This semester, a group of seniors from the Music Education department were supposed to go to the Lowell Senior Center and perform live band karaoke for them. Dr. Gena Greher, Savannah Marshall, and Alexis Csicsek went to the senior center and interviewed the people there to create a setlist of their favorite songs. Due to the pandemic, the band made a virtual version for the seniors to sing along to! This video was a part of one of the winning projects of the 2020 UML Student Research & Community Engagement Symposium, “Community Engagement Through Live Band Karaoke” by Alexis Csicsek.

Seven Six Records artist Dom the Composer has released a new single, “If I Believe”, for Mental Health Awareness Month. He writes: “If I Believe is a song about dealing with your worst enemy: your mind. This is a video of my community opening up, being vulnerable and taking a stand. They were kind enough to take time out of their day, film these clips, and make this video possible. We want people who are watching this to know that they are not alone. Whatever you are going through will get better in time. You are strong, you are loved and you are enough!”
