About Me

I'm Loz, I'm 19 and at Huddersfield Uni doing Music Tech & Pop BA... and I love it. We're neither Techies nor Musos, just a comfortable inbetween who are all completely head over heels obsessed with music. And we don't care what anyone says. Originally from Walsall which is a lovely town in the midlands, where I'm a waitress *joys*I play piano (Korg SP200 electric keyboard) , guitar (Epiphone Les Paul through a Marshall MG and an acoustic Yamaha Compass), flute, saxophone and sing with varying results. Music = life. Definately want to go into the music industry but not sure which area yet, studio, journalism, songwriting, performing... who knows!Living at Storthes at the moment which is mostly great, it's just a shame about 90% of it's residents are morons... The usual no one seems capable of emptying a bin/ washing up your stuff after they've used it and my cheese being stolen! However it can't be that bad as I've opted to live here again next year... At least it's better than Walsall!I'm lucky enough to drive a 1.3L 1965 Beetle, called Dewi - I know it's sad - which doesn't go very far, or very fast but I still love him.x

THE IMMEDIATE

Whilst on holiday in Ireland, found a great band from Dublin called The Immediate. We saw them play at a little folk club called De Barra's in Clonakilty and they were great. Really talented musicia...
