Carol is a Journalism student at Michigan State University who spends a lot of her time - outside of class anyway -listening to and thinking about music. She has been playing drum set for a number of years and still enjoys the opportunity to play when it arises, so let her know if you're in the area and would like to jam. Walk with Carol as she explores new artists, her concert experiences and a few personal musical whimsies. And, of course, comments are always appreciated! She would love to hear what you're listening to.
