Duncan Wood and the Bro Floor Chorus Cover “Friday”

If you’ve ever visited Schneider Hall, chances are you’ve noticed the grand piano in the lobby.  The piano was gift from the WKU Department of Music when Schneider Hall reopened in 2007.  On a given day, you can stroll through the second floor lobby and hear a variety of songs–classic, contemporary, and even a holiday song or two when it’s ninety degrees outside.

If you work in the office–like I do–you’ll often hear the faint tones of those melodies through a floor of brick and concrete.  To my amusement and amazement, I thought I heard someone playing “Friday” on the piano today.  Naturally, I left my office to go upstairs and check it out.  It turns out that first-year student Duncan Wood was offering students in the lobby a soulful rendition of the pop meme of 2011.

He, as well as the self-styled “Bro Floor Chorus,” agreed to do a performance on camera, which I offer as a cap to your day and the first month of classes this year.
