The ULM band Sound of Today has added a great deal of modern songs to their repertoire, including “Blow” by Ke$ha and “Judas” by Lady Gaga.

“I really wanted to reach out to the students,” said Jason Rinehart, director of the Sound of Today. “We will be playing a variety of hit songs like ‘Dynamite,’ which we played at Convocation. We also have ‘Forget You’ as the Hawk Line tune for our first home game against Grambling.”

The band will continue to play “All I Do Is Win,” which has become a crowd favorite.

The new and improved lineup of band tunes struck some positive chords with some students.

Jeremy Katz, a student from Mandeville, La., said he wants to personally thank the ULM Band for picking current songs and not being the “Sound of Yesterday” anymore.

“I also am hoping they will add rock tunes because that is more of the music I listen to,” said Katz.

James Mues, a student from Fairhope, Ala., says it does not matter what songs the band plays because they sound great and that’s all that matter.
