“Classical music in Britain has never been in ruder health.” So says @michaelwchurch1 in this hearteningly positive piece in @theipaper referencing the @bbcproms, @BBCRadio3, @wigmore_hall and more: inews.co.uk/culture/arts/tim…
I haven't listened to much of the new Harry Styles album, and I wasn't bothered by his Brits performance - but :) I am glad to see people finally agreeing with what I've been saying for several years :) inews.co.uk/culture/harry-st…
It was a real pleasure writing this double review for @prospect_uk of @freyaindiaa's GIRLS and @realzoestrimpel's Good Slut. Choice, beauty, the internet, capitalism, the meaning of freedom... Lots to think about! prospectmagazine.co.uk/cultu…

Thought I would take a second to re-share my Substack, The Deep Dive.
Free monthly essays dissecting popular (and sometimes less popular) culture. What's it really about?
So far: Too Much, Sabrina Carpenter, The Traitors. Next instalment 5 Dec 🌊

Viral violin? As music students, we tried to hide our sore arms, stage fright and freezing fingers, but now a clutch of young musicians are building their online followings by showing the reality of the profession. And guess what? The audience loves it...

Bon Iver's new album is the best music I've heard this year, and gets a big fat five stars from me in @theipaper inews.co.uk/culture/music/bo…
The Great Gatsby was published 100 years ago today - read this brilliant piece by @maxjliu on why it's chronically misunderstood and more relevant than ever @theipaper inews.co.uk/culture/books/gr…

For today's @theipaper I wrote about The Great Gatsby which was published 100 years ago this week. Happy birthday old sport inews.co.uk/culture/books/gr…
If you read one thing today, make it this excellent piece by @ellencph on how major labels have weaponised the streaming era to return to their heyday - to the detriment of artists inews.co.uk/culture/music/gr…

Wrote about Sam Fender, and young men who find comfort in his music, for @theipaper inews.co.uk/culture/music/ma…
This list almost tore @theipaper's culture desk apart. But we hope it doesn't make you turn on us like we turned on each other. Happy Valentine's Day! 💘💘💘 inews.co.uk/culture/50-best-…
