Hi,my name is Edwin McFee and I’m an Irish freelance features and travel journalist.This blog is intended for networking with bands,photographers, promoters and anyone of a creative nature…
The main publications I contribute to are NME, Hot Press and AU magazines, the Belfast Telegraph and Sunday Life newspapers and Fate magazine and the Big List. I also act as an occasional music critic for BBC Radio Ulster’s Arts Extra programme too.
Apart from all of that, as you can tell in the photo below, I love tattoos, horror films, spooky shite and having a larf. I currently live in Belfast but am from Newry originally. I’m left handed, I’ve a broken nose, I really enjoy eating odd meats, I love punk rock, riot grrrl and rockabilly lots and lots but also adore most things (expect country). I read lots of comics and have thousands at this stage, I watch wrestling (Shawn Michaels is my favourite but I also love Flair and Finlay and am quite taken with Curry-Man these days too) and daft celebrity shows. I played in bands before I became a writer and published my fanzine Generation Why?? before moving on to paid work. I’m not big into lists (my head doesn’t work that way) but some of my favourite bands right now are Fight Like Apes, Valient Thorr, Geoffrey Oi!Cott and Miley Cyrus.
