Hosts
Ella Grace
Hey! My name is Ella and I’m a senior majoring in jazz studies. I mainly play trumpet and perform professionally around the city in addition to playing in a few DePaul jazz ensembles. I’m super excited to share my eclectic music taste with you!
Aryanna Rent
Hello y’all! My name’s Aryanna. I’m an artist who also sometimes writes. I like to romanticize the mundane; coffee-drinking, walk-taking, and playlist-making. I’m enthralled by the hunt for hidden gems found beyond the typical trends. Genre-wise, I love to listen to music that feels good and prompts reflection.
