罗耀拉大学 and Offbeat Magazine Partner to Create “星期五…打败”

Offbeat Magazine and the School of 音乐 and 的atre Professions at 罗耀拉大学 have joined together to produce a music-focused podcast, “星期五…打败,” recorded at the school and streaming on Offbeat的YouTube频道.

的 podcast began 3月29日, with four new episodes focusing on “festival month” in 新奥尔良, and highlighting artists performing at the French Quarter Festival and the 新奥尔良 Jazz and Heritage Festival, 简·拉姆齐说, the founder and editor of Offbeat Magazine.

An earlier iteration of the podcast featured musicians Ivan Neville and Judith Owen, and those episodes are streaming now.

Ramsey and Jonathan McHugh, the Hilton-Baldridge Eminent Scholar/Chair in 音乐 Industry Studies at Loyola, created the podcast to showcase local and national talent, with McHugh serving as the podcast’s host.

“I’m thrilled for Loyola to partner with Offbeat on this podcast,麦克休说. “What started as a conversation between Jan and I about ways for Offbeat to showcase artists, and for me to share our amazing studios and music program here at Loyola, expanded into something terrific for everyone.”

一个Cugny, Offbeat's digital media producer and web specialist, 将制作播客, recorded at Loyola’s Michael J. 早期的工作室. Loyola students and faculty will participate in the making of the podcast as well.

“My goal is to continue promoting music in 新奥尔良, while always inspiring students,麦克休说, thanking College of 音乐 and Media Dean Sheryl Kennedy Haydel and Kate Duncan, director of the School of 音乐 and 的atre Professions, for their help in bringing the podcast to fruition.
