The Benedict Dollyrockers-The Benedict Dollyrockers
February 16th, 2016 by WLOY Staff
The Benedict Dollyrockers-The Benedict Dollyrockers
Released: November 3, 2015
Rate: 4/10
The Benedict DollyRockers are a country/rock/jam band originally from Coldwater, Michigan, but currently reside in Kalamazoo. Though they call themselves a “jam band” they do not seem very “jam-band”like. It seems like they are perpetually sad, and honestly I wish they were a little more upbeat or enthusiastic. Lyrically they can come off whiny and uninspired, their vocalist has a whiny twang as well that can be very unappealing. Many of the songs on the album can sound pretty repetitive, and honestly can sound the same. Despite this, I do here vibes from the Red Hit Chilli Peppers; as well as that, it is evident from their guitar solos that they are talented instrumentally but they do not utilize their talent very well and its kind of a disappoint.

Food Friday: B. Doughnut
February 12th, 2016 by WLOY Staff
What: B. Doughnut Artisanal Doughnuts
Where: 3528 Chestnut Ave, B-MORE
When: Wed-Sun 8am-1pm (or sell out)
I love my doughnuts. I live for my doughnuts. And, thanks to B. Doughnut I can branch out of my old-fashion plain and try a Hibiscus Pistachio.
B. Doughnut is an artisan, hand-crafted doughnut shop that takes pride in what they sell. They do not believe in the mass produced products, they focus on quality doughnuts for doughnut connoisseurs, like me, to truly appreciate and devour. But, if you want a taste of that new strawberry creme doughnut you have to get to there quickly in the morning because they close when they sell out! If you’re in the mood for an original taste and I feel that and I respect it, and so does B. Doughnut; take a bite out of their chocolate cream, berry jam, or vanilla bean. Nom nom everyone!
Follow them on Instagram @b_doughnut and click here for more information on their amazing doughnuts. Should I say doughnuts one more time? Doughnuts.

February 12th, 2016 by WLOY Staff

Loyola is currently tied for fifth place with Colgate, but there is still a lot of basketball to be played over the next several weeks. Second and ninth place is separated by only three games so, the Greyhounds still have an opportunity to climb up the Patriot League standings. Read the rest of this entry »

Megan Wilde-Wildfire
February 10th, 2016 by WLOY Staff
Megan Wilde-Wildfire
Release: May 19, 2015
Rate: 8/10
Megan Wilde’s debut is with her EP, Wildfire. There are a range of influences with instances of classic rock, funk, blues and jazz. Just like her music, Megan has a funky/groovy voice with great range. She reminds me of a mix of the late, Amy Winehouse, Aretha franklin, again with a bluesy rock edge of Grace Potter and the Nocturnals musically/instrumentally with some Janis Joplin vibes thrown in there.
