I also used to live in Manchester — another great city (although technically I lived in Salford which is next door but that’s sort of splitting hairs).

After I left university I wanted to write for the NME — I’ve always loved music but it was only when I went to uni that it started loving me back. I can’t play any instruments or sing so writing about music seemed to make sense.
