Here’s a sample of my recent editorial work. Publications I’ve written for include the GRAMMYs (print and online), Discover Los Angeles and Fine Living Lancaster.
The Power of Soraia (Fine Living Lancaster magazine, 2021)
“…Mansour isn't a stranger to adversity. With jet-black hair and a style that could resurrect rock and roll queen Janis Joplin, the high-voltage Soraia vocalist has been through enough in her life to render her indestructible.”
62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards Program Book (2020)
“…Rogers is still creating music that defies categorization. She’s even coined a term for herself: witchy feminist rock star.”
"The Simpsons" At 30: A Complete History Of Every Band That's Ever Rocked Springfield (GRAMMY.com, 2019)
“What is it about music and "The Simpsons" that make the two pair so well together, and what has helped the show, after 30 years and counting, remain as popular and influential today?”
57th Annual GRAMMY Awards Program Book (2015)
“For artists, it’s important they find who they are and stick with it, no matter what anyone else says. That’s what truly builds longevity and confidence.”
GRAMMY Magazine (2010)
“As music continues its digital march through services such as iTunes, there’s a yawning gap between hearing the music and seeing the album art designed to represent that music.”
Sleater-Kinney Proves Music Is Power (Guitar Center, 2019)
“Nearly 30 years after the Riot Grrrl movement, bands like Sleater-Kinney continue to use their music to challenge a system that too often seems to fail, especially for women.”
Salvador Santana And Ozomatli’s Asdru Sierra Announce New Politically Charged Project RMXKNZ (GRAMMY.com, 2019)
“Santana and Sierra are using their new artistic platform not just to call out those to blame for the current contentious climate of society, but as a call-to-action for those who believe we can be the change we want to see.”
