Profile
I have a large passion for music, my main music interests lie in indie/rock music, some of my favourite artists are: The Libertines, Babyshambles, Dirty Pretty Things, The Strokes, Manic Street Preachers, The Clash and Paramore. These are the main bands I like, but there are various others too.
One of my main interests is watching live music, I don’t think you can beat the atmosphere of a good show where the band are engaged with the crowd.
I am aiming to have a journalistic career in music, for a long time it has been the only job that I can see myself doing and being able to enjoy
