About Me

My name is Lily Sparks and I write for the independent music review magazine House of Tracks. It's been going since January 2006 and is awesome. We're based in Solihull but go all over the UK to gigs and festivals to see loads of bands and tell you which the good ones are! Have a look, I've made it really easy for you, just click on the picture ! =)
