Our third issue, aptly titled “The Music Issue,” focuses on the power, influence, and ubiquity of music. In the cover story, “The Power of Music,” staff writer Lindsay Johnson and photographer Garrett Lawrence examine music’s ever-present nature that allows people to feel attached to songs and form connections with others. We also focus on the Jacksonville music scene, the rich diversity of world languages in music, social media’s role in promoting independent music, the appeal of the Stanton Fight Song, the history and controversy of music sampling, and a perspective on the prevalence of music elitism.
