Lucy Dunnet

WRITER
Lucy Dunnet is a London-based adrenaline junkie who loves nothing more than getting stuck in a mosh pit or finding new Heavy Metal bands to obsess over.


Currently training to be a journalist, she has found the answer to the question: what could possibly make a live show better? Writing about it.

Addicted to the intense physical and emotional connection between music, bands and their fans, Lucy hopes to convey the raw magnificence of live music in her reviews.

When she is not writing, Lucy can be found trying to convince her Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym to play Sepultura over the loudspeakers.
