Students already feeling the stress of the new semester have an opportunity to see live music this evening on the LSU Parade Ground.The Student Activities Board is hosting its Back to School Bash at 6 p.m. today  featuring live music from funk and R&B artist Space Capone.SAB President Allen Womble said the band should be a good fit to get students excited about the new semester.”It’s going to be a cool night in terms of funky music,” Womble said. “It’ll get people back in that groove of things.”Lead singer Aaron “Space” Capone said students can expect a vibrant show from his self-named band.”It’s hard for you guys not to move,” he said. “It’s going to be a blast.”Though Space Capone is just starting to play on college campuses, Capone said he is confident people will enjoy it.”Historically funk has always been party music,” he said. “We always have a good time when we’re up there, and I think it translates to the crowd.”Neil Dahlgren, band manager for Space Capone, said the band is always looking for a party atmosphere and looks forward to playing at the University.”We love playing in front of college crowds because everybody’s basically the same age we are,” Dahlgren said. “They’re the ones, that out of all the shows that we’ve played, are the best demographic to play for.”Space Capone performs a combination of original music and cover songs, Dahlgren said. Students can expect to see an even mix of Capone’s music and ’70s tunes.”Tomorrow it’ll be about 50-50,” he said. “There’s a horn section. “We have, obviously, the originals and the covers are stuff like Rick James and Kool & the Gang.”Womble said the band is one of the first that the SAB plans to bring to campus this year.”Space Capone is just the first of bands we’ll bring to campus,” he said. “We plan on bringing at least one band every month.”Daniel Smallwood, SAB music committee chair, said the committee will also feature stand-up comedians, debates and guest lecturers throughout the semester.—-Contact Ben Bourgeois at [email protected]
