The sun sets on another month, but dawns on a new Before The ENCORE. Rejoice, rejoice dear listener.
As always, I aim to unmask parts of the music industry and provide an insight into certain areas that may not get the most air-time in order to spread a bit of awareness about what drives the people in their roles and areas of expertise, how they got there and all the other fun stuff in between. This month, I pushed the boat out a little further into some personally uncharted waters and spoke with friend-of-the-show and regular super sub Zara Hedderman all about her life and times in the world of music journalism.
As well as being a regular alumnus of NO ENCORE & RTÉ's Arena on Radio 1, Zara has bylines in The Thin Air, Loud and Quiet, Totally Dublin, The Quietus and many, many more. We discuss many things including a past blogger life, what makes an \"important\" artist and the ups-and-downs of being critical of the musical arts.
You can find Zara's many musings on Twitter here.
