Ohio native Kate Voegele brings sass, spunk and talent to the female pop and rock scenes

I don't usually find new music artists on TV and if I do, it's not on some teeny-bopper show like One Tree Hill. But rotting my brain while watching this show led to some good when two years ago; I got chills hearing Kate Voegele sing and play "Kindly Unspoken" on the piano. The rest is history.

A talented, Ohio-born rocker, Voegele is a mix of Michelle Branch and Miley Cyrus. Like Branch, Voegele plays the guitar and writes her own songs, although her music ends up being a tad more exciting. If you cringed as soon as you read "Miley Cyrus," don't worry. By comparing her Cyrus, I only meant that Voegele has really, really catchy songs. Unlike Cyrus, however, Kate's voice is far from nasal and you won't mind having her songs stuck in your head.

I was stunned by Voegele's first album, Don't Look Away

All University students are required to live on Grounds in their first year, but they have many on and off-Grounds housing options going into their second year. Students face immense pressure to decide on housing as soon as possible, and this high demand has strained the capacities of both on and off-Grounds accommodations. Lauren Seeliger and Brandon Kile, two third-year Cavalier Daily News writers, discuss the impact of the student housing frenzy on both University students and the Charlottesville community.
