The Cornell Daily Sun (https://cornellsun.com/tag/after-six/)
On Saturday, bands Safe in Sound, After Six, Twin Court and Paragon performed at Bailey Hall in a Battle of the Bands event. They competed against each other for a coveted opportunity to perform at Slope Day, which will be held on May 8.
Cornell recently held its annual Big Red Icon to determine which student band will get to play on Slope Day as an opener. I spoke with Josh Sokol, the saxophonist of this year’s winning band After Six, about their musical style and what makes them unique.
The Sun: How would you describe the type of music that After Six makes? Josh Sokol: I feel like we have a diverse style. We also change what we’re going for depending on the event, but we keep it centered around what After Six is. A mix between neo soul, funk and hip hop.
