The Academic
The Academic are an Irish indie rock band, formed in Rochfortbridge, County Westmeath in 2013. The band consists of Craig Fitzgerald, Dean Gavin, and brothers Matthew and Stephen Murtagh. Their debut studio album, Tales from the Backseat, was released in January 2018, entering the Irish Albums Chart at number one. The album was nominated for Album of the Year at the Choice Music Prize in January 2019. Their second studio album, Sitting Pretty, is set to release on February 10th 2023.
The Academic were formed in 2013, when Fitzgerald, Gavin and the Murtagh brothers were attending St Joseph's Secondary School, Rochfortbridge. Such was the reaction to the release of their debut EP, Loose Friends, in October 2015, that the band sold out their first show at Dublin venue Vicar Street. The band garnered further media interest in July 2017 with the release of "Bear Claws", an anthemic track which was likened in style to The Stokes. The track received further attention after the premiere of their first-of-a-kind live looper music video. The video, which was performed live on a Facebook video stream, utilized the delay in the stream to create a musical loop, to which they gradually added vocals and instruments. It was a viral hit and reached over 1 million views on YouTube in 48 hours.

Today, Daya is grown and better in touch with who she is. Oh, and she's also singing about being "a bad girl [who] needs a bad girl." The juxtaposition from the good boy/good girl narrative isn't on purpose, she says, but perhaps it's "just the natural evolution" of who she's become. "I think it truly shows that arc of my sexuality and me as a person and everything," she says candidly, "It's about finding myself for the past five years, it feels like this full circle in a weird way."
Grace Martine Tandon (born October 24, 1998), better known by her stage name Daya (stylized DΛYΛ; is an American singer and songwriter from Mt. Lebanon, Pennsylvania.

Japanese Breakfast - Be Sweet (Official Video)
Japanese Breakfast is an indie pop band headed by Korean-American musician Michelle Zauner. Zauner started the band as a side project in 2013, when she was leading the Philadelphia-based emo group Little Big League. She has said that she named the band after seeing a GIF of Japanese breakfast and deciding that the term would be considered "exotic" to Americans; she also thought it would make others wonder what a Japanese breakfast consists of.
In 2014, she returned to her hometown of Eugene, Oregon, to care for her ailing mother. She continued to record music and songs, first to cope with stress, then, after her mother died, with grief.
The Japanese breakfast consists of five main dishes which are complemented by a number of side dishes. The whole Japanese breakfast is designed around the steamed white rice called gohan. This is the same short-grain rice used in sushi. Brown rice called genmai can also be used instead. In order to balance out the tangy richness of all the other dishes, rice is used because it is starchy, nutritious as well as neutralizing. You can top the rice with pearly salmon roe called Ikura or the golden creamy sea-urchin. They help add color, texture and saltiness to your rice bowl. No breakfast can be complete without eggs. As a result, the Japanese like to have eggs served with Furikake. Namely, it is a dry mixture of ground sesame seeds, roasted sea greens (nori), bonito flakes (katsobushi), dried shrimp (hoshi ebi), dried anchovies (niboshi), a bit of salt and sugar. This adds savory flavor to the omelet and makes it tastier. Japanese breakfast, includes a variety of fresh vegetables to ensure a great start to your day. Natto is a dish rich in nutrients and protein. It is made from fermented soybean and has a slimy texture with ammonia-like aroma. Miso soup or miso shiru and fish Grilled or pan-sauteed fish is called yakizakana in Japanese is can be included. To finish Green tea helps digest the food faster and also cleans the palette.

Number One Popstar Center
Down to the name, Number One Popstar makes no attempt to hide what she's about. A mix of winking satire and loving tribute, the pop project spearheaded by singer and comedian Kate Jean Hollowell is both a quintessential chart-topping indie pop idol and a witty, irreverent send up of the genre. Having been likened to the Andy Kaufman of pop music, Number One Popstar is the sorely needed injection of humor we didn't know was needed.
I’m addicted to performing live music as an outlet, so when the entire world had to be quarantined, I decided to fully commit. I live with my boyfriend who is a musician and producer and we just started making songs. The rest is billboard history, as they say!
Where did you come up with the artist name of your new solo project? What were the other options aside from Number One Popstar?
I wanted to be number one and I didn’t want to have to wait! But sincerely it was the perfect name that people would immediately be intrigued and confused by and even possibly make them angry until they saw the project and understood what I’m actually doing. Number One Popstar, also known as N1PS, is the only name I ever considered. Feels good to be on top!

Two potentially habitable planets have been found orbiting the nearest sun-like star 'tau Ceti'.
An international team of researchers discovered the planets among four Earth-sized worlds surrounding the star, which sits 12 light years from the sun - close enough to be seen by the naked eye.
The two planets are 'super-Earths' located in the habitable zone of the star, and researchers claim they could support liquid surface water. Also known as the 'Goldilocks zone', this is the orbital region that is neither to hot nor too cold to allow liquid surface water and, potentially, life.
Sun-like stars are thought to be the best targets for searching for habitable worlds Earth-sized planets, due to their similarity to our own star.
Tau Ceti is very similar to the sun in its size and brightness, and they both host multi-planet systems.
