Dagny: The Queen of Aesthetics
Spotify

When it comes to music, Norwegian-native, Dagny, is no stranger. Having been born into the music world, the 28-year-old always had the profound influence of her parents guiding her down the path to success. Dagny grew up surrounded by the sweet vocals and instrumentals of jazz music, but today, she fronts a vivacious pop sound.

With just about every song on the radio having a pop vibe, Dagny recognizes there’s no room in the industry for backseat tracks and trivial lyrics. She identifies the importance of taking a strategic, yet playful approach to creating her music.

Dagny’s break onto the scene leaves us longing to know more about her creative process, insight into her lyrics, inspirations and overall style. On Spotify, she has more than 580,000 monthly listeners, which is a testament to her incredible talent, as well as her ability to give the fans what they want, while also remaining true to her own thoughts.

Dagny recently released her debut EP, Ultraviolet -- and it’s all around perfection. Her breakout song, Backbeat, off of the new EP is what really brought her name to the public’s eye and into the spotlight. It’s the youthful, nostalgic, lively anthem you need in your life right now. The lyrics make us wish for simpler times in the past while reminding her listeners that memories become so much more desirable when they are at a distance.

Dagny’s music follows music’s most recent trend of pop fused with electronic hints, yet her eclectic style makes her craft stand out in this category. The other tracks on Ultraviolet -- “Too Young,” “Fight Sleep” and “Ultraviolet” -- have a perfectly formulated spot on this EP, and are all individualistic works of art that deserve an honorary spot on your “Fresh Finds” Spotify Playlist.

Dagny’s newest project also includes “Fool’s Gold” -- a collaboration with indie, alt-pop mogul BØRNS. Throughout the song, she begs the question of whether the love she experienced was genuine. It isn't sugarcoated or fabricated; it’s insightful and easily relatable, in the sense that she longs for love and will not settle for anything less than authentic.

Dagny is one of the few artists in this industry that truly understands the hype of our pop culture. Her lyrics are fearless and thoughtful while remaining meaningful in her artistic cultivation of sound.

And if that’s not a reason to become a fan, she gives us more of a reason to love her with her edgy cover of Ultraviolet, where she is seen sporting a trendy bomber and short, white-honey blonde hair. Officially becoming the queen of aesthetics: musically and visually.

As a ‘thank you’ for her fans’ devotion, Dagny spreads the love by creating giveaways and free goodies. For a chance to win a replica of the bold jacket on her EP cover and prove you’re a true fan, you can enter into the Republic Records Dagny contest by following her on Spotify and Twitter, as well as using this official sweepstakes link.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
