EMBED THIS VIDEO
The Graduate was formed by friends Tim Moore, Corey Warning, Matt Kennedy, Max Sauer and Jared Wuestenberg in 2005. Their memorable songs, electric live performances and approachable personalities quickly made them a favorite in the mid-west indie circuit. Check out the interview as Corey chats it up with OurStage host Alyssa Jayne Hale before a sold out showcase at the Subterranean Rock Club in Chicago. Hear what it was like performing on the Warped Tour, opening for Nine Inch Nails in Europe and how it felt to grace the cover of CMJ magazine before they’d even released their first album!

For more interviews and performance footage from this (rising) star studded evening check this stuff out!

Um … just when you think this video (above) can’t get any cuter OR funnier … it does. And the song itself is pretty freakin awesome.

Economy slump getting you down? Check out Weird Al’s rendition of “Whatever you like.” And if that doesn’t get you laughing then grab a shot of JD and kick back with this little country tune.

She looks like a model and sings like Feist discover OurStage hottie Charisse!

John McCain pisses off Dave Grohl … & apparently a few others in the music biz.

As the Red Sox gear up for their BIG WIN tonight – let us kick back to Suzanne McNeil’s ‘Lost in Boston‘ and remember that while good old Bean Town may be on top of their athletic game of late – it is still absolutely impossible to drive from point a to point b without getting lost, hitting traffic, navigating around construction, getting flipped off, flipping someone else off or screaming at the top of your lungs in sheer frustration.
