The Deli Magazine: Mad Decent Block Party 2011 photo recap, The Piazza, Philly

Below is a little blurb and a photo. If you click on the piece, it will redirect you to the photo recap of the event on The Deli’s website.

The Deli Magazine: Rock and Read Festival review and photo recap, Bookspace, Philly

This past Saturday I covered the Rock and Read Festival, presented by The Deli Magazine and Cloud Entertainment, in order to benefit Rock to the Future, an after-school music education program for kids in low-income families. It was a lot of fun, with really great bands (Mischief Brew, Harry and the Potters, The New Motels, Monsterface, The Jawnettes and more), and as always, a bunch of cool finds in Bookspace.

Click the image and writeup below to see shots of all the bands. Under the image, I have posted additional photos that I took throughout the night.

The Deli Magazine: Pink Skull show preview, M-Room, Philly

I just started an internship with The Deli Magazine. It’s a national music magazine that covers local music in major cities. I cover Philadelphia.

Today my first writing was published, which is really exciting for me, because music journalism is my ultimate goal as a career. It was a show preview, which basically just gives listeners a small piece of the pie, but through a visual format. You can click on the screenshot of the article below to take you to the website.
