About Me


If you are interested in playing for It's Just Noise please email raya [at] itsjustnoise [dot] com DO NOT MESSAGE THIS MYSPACE PROFILE unless you cannot get in touch via email.
It's Just Noise were originally a collective of writers and promoters from various locations around the UK. Our home, www.itsjustnoise.com started primarily as a music review website, but soon became home to our numerous gigs and promotions as well.
These gigs turned into a large hideous beast, and have now pretty much taken over, leaving reviews cowering quietly in the corner. We'd like to revive the reviews aspect of the website, so if you're interested in writing for us, please get in touch.
Originally putting shows on across the country, our efforts are now primarily focused in the West Midlands, particularly in Birmingham and Wolverhampton, supporting local and touring artists.
