Emma Turner • September 13, 2017
John Seesholtz and a small student-ensemble sang South African music at the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art Tuesday night. The music was a mixture of praise and protest songs from the Zulu culture.

Jack Johnson’s new album highlights social issues with beach-rock tunes

“All the Light Above It Too” seems to question many aspects of the world and within it, human interactions.
