Imogen Hartley

Imogen Hartley started writing about music because she was tired of reading reviews that described albums without actually saying anything. Based in Bristol, she covers emerging artists, pop culture, and the cultural politics of who gets called a serious musician and who gets dismissed. She spent several years contributing to music and culture outlets across the UK before joining Latetown Magazine, where she writes with the kind of directness that makes artists uncomfortable and readers come back.
