Abstract

Melodies of Oxford documents a local college band “South of Somethin’.” I wanted to highlight some of the sounds we hear as we walk through the Square, the Grove, or Fraternity Row. Music is not the driving force that draws people to the town we call home, but it is present everywhere.

My name is Alexander Deyton and I am a Senior at the University of Mississippi where I am pursuing my Bachelor of Arts in Southern Studies. The project I worked on, “Melodies of Oxford” is something that is near and dear to my heart. I am a musician and truly believe that music is not the driving force that draws people to the town we call home, but it is present everywhere. The band, South of Somethin’ is a group of college guys playing smaller gigs with the lead singer’s goal of one day making it to Nashville. I hope this short tells of the true dedication to their own craft that they are so very passionate about.
