My name is Kilee Bradeen, and I am a senior and a Business Management Major (concentration in sports management) with a studio art minor. I've been exposed to a lot of music throughout my life. Growing up, I played the Clarinet in the school band. I was also in the chorus, as was my older sister, who is a very talented singer. My family and I have been to many concerts, mostly country, as it is our favorite genre to listen to.
I am from a small town in Maine, and came to South Carolina to play field hockey and to escape the cold! I love all things sports and i'm sure ill never want to leave the world of sports. My family also moved here to South Carolina, we all fell in love with it and the opportunity. There are so many more things to do and see here then in Maine.
1. Here are two examples of pieces of Music that I am liking right now.
I've always been a big country fan (I'm even going to a Hardy concert tonight!) As I grew up, my parents always had country playing in the car and on the radio at home. It became a big part of my childhood and my life today; it has given me some of my most favorite memories as well. I chose this song because it is a newer country song that I've been listening to a lot recently!
My second example is a Bad Bunny song. I chose this song because the past year(ish), I've been listening to a very large amount of Spanish music. I really enjoy this song and the fun energy it gives, although I'm not really exactly sure what all the lyrics mean lol. I'm definitely influenced by my boyfriend, as he's from Spain and is very passionate about music. Fun fact he’s also in the Orchestra here at Converse and by going to his concerts I realized I actually quite enjoy classical music!
2. The next piece of music is something that is very meaningful to me.
This song brings me back to a memory of a certain person who has passed along. It was a very meaningful song, and every time I hear it, it brings back many emotions. I enjoy listening to this whenever I feel upset and need a good cry, it’s definitely on my sad playlist.
3. Lastly, an example of music that I don't connect with
I don't really connect with many pop songs, I don't personally like Taylor swift either. Growing up, especially in high school I enjoyed this type of music more (probably because it was the cool thing to do) but now I’ve discovered exactly what I like. I also would say I’m not to fond of screamo rock but I don’t have a specific example of that.
Hello Kilee, I enjoyed listening to the songs on your blog! The song I found most interesting was "Backup Plan". I also like listening to country music here and there, but I have never heard this song before, and I thought it was good and a little bit different than the stuff I have heard before. I liked the song "VOY A LLeVARTE PA PR" the most because it is something that I have listened to before. Bad Bunny is one of my favorite artists, and I have listened to many of his songs.
Great first blog post! I also really enjoy country music. I really like the Bailey Zimmerman song with Luke Combs. I have never heard of that one before. I love the beat of that one. Also, another interesting one to me is "A Thousand Years." That is a very heartfelt song and so beautiful.
Hey girl, I think your music taste is very mature, and I think it adds to your vibe in a beautiful way. I also don't really love pop music lol. But out of all of the songs you talked about I also really love Bad Bunny. I think you and I could get along very well and I hope I get to know more about you!
Hi Kilee! I can totally agree with the song you dislike. I myself am not a Taylor swift fan whatsoever. I also enjoy the song thousand years, im sorry for your loss. This song is truly a sweet song and glad it can bring you good memories
Hello, This week, I interviewed my dad and got his input on what music is meaningful to him. I started off by asking him his favorite genre of music. He said, "Bluegrass." This was not surprising to me at all. When I was in my mom's belly and just born, my dad was actually in a bluegrass band. I then asked his favorite artist, to which he answered "The Del McCoury Band". I'd never heard of this band, but when he played a little of their music once again, I knew it was something he'd like. Then I asked what his favorite song was, and he replied, "1952 Vincent Black Lightning," which is by The Del McCoury Band. I've inserted the song here! Next, I asked my dad which instrument he knew how to play. I'm of course aware of all the instruments that hes owned and we've had in our house over the years, but these are the ones that he is confident in his ability to play "I can play the uprig...
Hello everyone, My traditions often include music throughout my life. We tend to listen to music at special events and holidays that are either meaningful to the occasion or just a song we like as a family. One thing that my family does is have some music playing in the background almost all day at home, especially at dinner time. My dad is usually the DJ for these occasions, so he'll play a lot of country. I'm actually not familiar with a lot of the music he plays, but it's actually great because he introduces a lot of new songs and artists to me. One song we listened to the other day was this song. It's called Broken Window Serenade, by Whiskey Myers. Another one of my favorite traditions actually doesn't involve my family at all. It is a special song within my field hockey team here at Converse. I've known this song for a long time, but...
