Sensational Sessions


How cool is Sessions at One College Circle? Very cool, very cool indeed. Where else can you get an hour of live, local music that is performed in the recording studio at the New England School of Communications (NESCom) and simulcast on WHSN. Well, no where else of course!

Sessions at One College Circle is set for this Friday night and features The Aurora Jazz Project.

Here is how it works. The group comes into the the Husson College Campus Center or the NESCom recording studio and the stage is set up by Audio Engineering students. A NESCom radio student serves as the V-Jay for the show. Chris Mower will be the V-Jay Friday night and he's preparing to interview the band between songs. The show is broadcast live on 89.3 FM WHSN and can be picked up via internet streaming on whsn-fm.com. The Video Production students at NESCom will put the show on the campus TV network, channel 5. Digital photography students are circling around the studio at the same time, capturing stills that are later posted on the web and in the campus newspaper, The Spectator. It is amazing to see the students in action. It is an additional benefit to showcase talented Maine musicians.
