The Slope Day Programming Board announced the final list of artists who will be performing for the first in-person Slope Day since 2019.
This Saturday, March 12 at 3 p.m, Big Red Icon is giving Cornell music groups the chance to shine at Bailey Hall.
During my time at Cornell, I never imagined that I would utter the words, “There’s an indie rock concert at Bailey Hall.” This sentence also surprised a lot of my friends; after all, as we’ve learned, the stage should belong to Prof. Bruce Monger and his loving devotion to our climate.

Ithaca Underground provided a platform for artists to share their music and their political messages during this turbulent time.
One piece, “Rhapsody in Blue,” will even feature an acoustic grand piano that must be carefully wheeled outside. “It’s all about adaptation.”
Hippo Campus is also known for their support of the #MeToo movement, having donated to the Women’s Foundation of Minnesota in 2018 via a merchandise drive.
The Virtual Music Festival exemplifies how important it is for the Cornell administration to be more transparent about funding and allocation, especially in these uncertain times.
Even for those unfamiliar with his more recent music, watching a performance with thousands of other people is a type of social connection that most people would appreciate in the face of isolation — I know I do.
Swae Lee, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Rico Nasty and Matoma are set to play the Virtual Music Festival on May 14 and 15 at 8 p.m. EDT, Slope Day Programming Board announced on Facebook.
Students missing music on the slope will still be able to celebrate the end of the semester.
