On April 3, Johnny Reverb and his band played at this semester’s One Sessions.  Reverb plays in a variety of genres.  He has begun playing music 1966 and started writing music when he was 12 or 13 years old.  Reverb can play guitar, bass, and piano.
“I thought that it was a great awesome opportunity,” Reverb said.
Students participating in One Sessions are given the opportunity to work with cameras, lighting and sounds.  Once the One Sessions are recorded, they are edited by students and put on a blue-ray then sent off to a contest.
“It is a whole lot of work and they deserve credit for it,” Randy Ray, director of broadcast engineering, said.
The One Sessions began in 2009.  There is only one per semester because of all the work that goes into the One Sessions.  This semester the One Sessions was run by the Advanced Video Class that is taught by Randy Ray.
“It gives the guys around here so much experience on live taping,” Izaak Chavez, graduate student in communication studies, said.  “It takes a lot of effort and a lot of man power.”
To choose the band that plays at the One Sessions, names of various bands are suggested by various people.  These names are then voted on by the students of the class and by the students that work on the radio station 91.1.  Most of the time the One Sessions are run by students from various students in the broadcasting department but this semester students from the Advanced Video Class worked on the One Sessions.
“I think it’s going to be a lot different than it has been in the past,” Heath McCarty,  senior Mass Communication major, said. “[The One Sessions] are the one thing we do that is different and not broadcasting.”
