Bollypop – A New Musical Fusion

November 4, 2020 by Aarushi Rohaj Leave a Comment

I stood up from the fancy gold colored couch and smoothed out the wrinkles on my magenta gown. “Lub Dub, Lub Dub, Lub Dub.” My heart was beating so fast I thought it was going to explode. As I walked up on stage, my hands turned cold, my throat ran as dry as a desert ditch, and a trickle of sweat ran down my cheek.  I had worked hours a day, days a week, and weeks a month … [Read more...]

Inspiration for Life

October 25, 2019 by Tom Bennett Leave a Comment

News of Death Every city has a place where the downtrodden congregate. In Salt Lake, Pioneer Park is that place. I would see drug use and violence, but on one spring day I saw something new. A man in a chef toque was meditating under a tree. I saw him there daily. My curiosity grew and one day I sat in silence beside him. After awhile he turned and smiled at me with a sublime … [Read more...]

Songwriter’s Showcase 

August 20, 2018 by Utah Stories Leave a Comment

Scott Cullins' passion for songwriting reignited when he moved to Utah from Teton Valley, Idaho in 2011. But his move to Holladay, in 2017, was like adding music steroid directly into his veins. "You can find an open mic or open jam almost every night of the week in this town," Says Cullins. "I felt like a kid in a candy shop. I was playing at Alchemy Coffee, The Royal … [Read more...]

John Young: Luthier

August 8, 2018 by Alyssa Bray Leave a Comment

"A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit, and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy." -Albert Einstein   I spent a recent morning in a violin maker’s shop, being given a tour by its luthier, John Young. John picks up a future violin, a pair of wooden boards, and we look at the flaming of the grain. He shows me a scattering of violin pieces, ribs, … [Read more...]

Like many musicians, Durrant was interested in capturing his own material and started recording his music on a Tascam cassette recorder. Looking back on those days he says, "it was kind of cool … [Read more...]
