About the author
I'm a music fiend. There is no life worth living without music in it. I have a soft spot in my heart for just about every type of music, but I especially love underground/indie rock, New Wave 80s, folk, electronic, and old school hip hop. In general I cover the newer music for The Giant Panther, with John being the expert on the classics, but there are few bands out there we both don't love.
