Be blown away! Based solely on her astounding good lucks or quirky electronic guitar you might group her in with any number of leading musical ladies, but this woman is a complete individual. Grace Potter and her supporting Nocturnals are in a league all their own; performing astounding feats of energetic beauty on stage, and their record This is Somewhere is no exception.

GPN has come a long way from homegrown recordings and from the start of this album, "Ah Mary" belts soulful lyrics wrapped in a rocking package. Listen to every word and the lyrics can be as deep to fall into as any of the beats and rhythms in the song. But if the lead off track doesn't move you, then "Stop the Bus" builds to a strong crescendo as the lyrics state 'turn the radio up high and grab the first guitar you see.' The songs are unified only because they're all good, and the styles alternate from the soft "Big White Gate" to melodic "Ain't No Time" and hard supporting rifts of "Mastermind." However, the true character of the band shines through when they strum up an audience with a song like "Here's to the Meantime."[...]

West Haven, Conn., July 28, 2008-WNHU, the radio station of the University of New Haven-voted #1 College Radio Station in Connecticut for the past three years in the New Haven Advocate's "Best of Reader's Poll"-will premiere its new website on July 31.

Part of the station's strategy to expand its community connections, the commercial-quality web site will offer advertising and promotion of area musicians, give web listeners ready access to popular DJ bios and photos, and offer play lists and expanded station information. After streaming live for three years, WNHU is well known for its wildly eclectic programming-a vast selection of music including jazz, rock, hip-hop, Celtic, and salsa, and alternative news-and legendary veteran disc jockeys with an international following, from Rockin' Richard to Miss Rusty J.

The new WNHU site is the brainchild and creation of UNH junior and Milford, Conn. resident Zack Rosen, the station's website director and host of WNHU's eclectic blues/rock/funk show, "Funked Up." A Music and Sound Recording and Music Industry double major at the University, Rosen is the assistant editor of the University of New Haven student newspaper, The Charger Bulletin, and president of the UNH College Democrats. He also operates his own web-design and maintenance company, contracting with several area companies and organizations. Rosen also finds time to tutor peers in computers, software, and technology, and for amateur musical recording and his own guitar playing, which he began at the age of six.

Rosen was brought into the WNHU fold, which consists of some 70 community and student-volunteer staff members and 4 remunerated employees, by General Manager and broadcasting veteran Hank Yaggi, of Madison, Conn. Under Yaggi's direction, WNHU's on-air and production studios have undergone a complete overhaul and the station's broadcast capabilities have risen to that of its commercial competitors. Yaggi's leadership has enabled the station's student management to maximize its potential, garnering the adulation of young and old and the admiration of their professional broadcasting peers and capturing the New Haven Advocate award for Best College Radio Station for three consecutive years. Prior to directing WNHU, Yaggi's energy was focused in the television industry, most recently as general manager of WTNH, News Channel 8, in New Haven, Conn.

The new WNHU site will go live on July 31, at http://www.wnhu.net.
