Review // How To Dress Well @ Whitworth Art Gallery

Bonjour! I'm finally out of exam hell- GOODBYE SECOND YEAR- you were a blast! I celebrated by doing shots with Ryan Giggs in Liars Bar (Who do I think I am?!) and taking my lovely little BK to finally catch How To Dress Well live after I gave Total Loss a 9/10 last year, remember? It was mesmerising, breath-taking and I cried three times; talk about beautiful! I reviewed the gig over here for Crack Mag- give it a little read if you fancy! Also, I have a very ~special~ interview coming up this week and then I'm off to cover Field Day for the Artrocker camp, see you on the other side! May, you the best...

Review // Liverpool Sound City

Afternoon! As I mentioned, I headed back home to cover Liverpool Sound City last weekend! Myself and the lovely Harriet were reunited over angrily visiting Manchester clubnights in the wrong city (I'm looking at you, Juicy...), Absinthe cocktails at a K-pop conference on the telly in heatwave weather and swooning over the likes of King Krule, Mount Kimbie and Melody's Echo Chamber. There is too many highs to mention that I didn't go into but that is for another inappropriate anecdotal time. I had fun. We all had fun. Read my review over here!

Feature // Manchester Reborn #8

Apologies for not posting in a while, y'all should know by now that this is out of character for a writer such as myself but as I'm sure you will all understand, exams and end-of-year deadlines are rife at the moment! Apart from visiting family away, ridiculously good send-offs, inappropriate interviews and- as per- partying too hard (Blame the Girl Unit set I shot, below...), my latest Manchester Reborn column revolves around Salford's very own Sounds From The Other City Festival that is upcoming for this bank holiday Sunday! The event looks fabulous with various promoters, local heroes and national favourites all along one street; Sunday Roast spots and Chat Roulette after-parties included! See you down the front, if I make it through covering Liverpool Sound City this weekend that is- come say Hi to the Artrocker team if you spy any of us around this weekend! See you on the other side...
