The Social Media Platforms Cody Simpson & The Tide Prefer
Musician/Singer Cody Simpson is changing up his sound after winning over fans as a pop star.
Leaving his solo career behind, he teamed up with a new band, The Tide, to release a new EP. Simpson and bandmates Adrian Cota and Shareef "Reef" Addo, joined Cheddar to talk about music and life on the road.
Simpson says he's inspired by surf rock and the psychedelic sounds of the Sixties. He also tells us what it was like to get behind the boards and produce. Simpson reveals the transformation has been "a long time coming."
The Tide members also gave their take on which social media platforms and streaming services they rely on most.
As the interview neared its end, we challenged the band to a game of "Which Simpson Said It?" Spoiler, the band got a perfect score!
Over 500 restaurants are taking part in New York Restaurant Week, which concludes on Aug. 20. Cheddar News checks in from Dagon Restaurant in the city's Upper West Side to discuss some of its delicious Mediterranean-inspired dishes with Chef Ari Bokovza.
Wondering what to watch this weekend? We suggest Mario & Luigi, Meghan Markle before royalty, a bust out of jail guide and perhaps the greatest musician ever!
A new study shows different strategies may be effective at motivating people to donate, apart from all that “sadvertising.” The study from Nathan Chan, assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Casey Wichman, assistant professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, found that people in good moods are more likely to donate to a charitable cause.
