Rare FM: Head of Music

My name is Alexia Mihaila and I am a fourth-year Arts & Sciences undergrad re-running as Head of Music for Rare FM! 

Having been Head of Music for over two years and running two radio shows, Songwriters Station at Rare FM and Daily Intermission at WCBN FM in Michigan, I’ve developed a passion for radio which was already fueled by my love for music. In the past, I've also managed to secure interviews with slowthai, Ray Blk, Tom Odell's band members and more. Given how much I’ve learnt from working closely with all committee members in the past and working at a physical radio station in the US, I’ve learnt how to organize music review sessions and promote underground and emerging artists!

My plan for next year is to:

* Seek and promote UCL artists through playlists, interviews and acoustic performances

*  Expanding the Rare FM written and video interview catalogue with UnCL 

* Building a Radio ID catalogue with musicians and students

* Organising music review sessions

* Establishing new connections and strengthening the bonds with pluggers, labels, and artist 

* Putting together more collaborative playlists and playlists specific to holidays or pop-culture references

* Collaborating with other music societies such as Live Music, EMS and more.

I love representing Rare FM as Head of Music since it's become such a big part of my life and what I genuinely enjoy doing! My past experience also qualifies me for the role, so I hope you'll vote for me again! :)
