Foothill podcasts monthly show

Foothill College’s music technology program is now podcasting a monthly show featuring music written and produced by Foothill students.

Outstanding reviews for Foothill’s podcast have come in from other colleges and universities that also podcast.

This month, “Happy Hour” features music by Foothill students: a festive reggae number by Kerry Wing; the group Amboy-Kelso, a great alternative rock band; and The 00Agents, an East Coast hip-hop in the classic style. All the music was produced at Foothill.

To hear or subscribe to the Foothill podcast, open iTunes and select Music Store, click on podcasts, click Browse on the Inside the Music Store menu, and select “Foothill College Music Tech. Happy Hour” under the education or music categories.
