I'm Phil. I love music, and this is where I share my thoughts and observations on what I'm listening to, whether recorded or live.
You can find me on ... Twitter: @MusicObserver1 / Instagram: @music_observed / Threads: @music_observed / Spotify: Music Observer / YouTube: Music Observer
(And I also write for CLASH magazine, The Songbird, LeftLion Nottingham, and Music in Leicester)
Submissions
If you have music you'd like me to listen to, recommendations to make, or just want to say hi, feel free to email me here: therealmusicobserver [at] gmail [dot] com
If I don't respond, please don't take it personally - I get a lot of emails and there's only one of me!
Tips: Make sure you always include:
- the release date, and any embargo rules
- a prominent easy-to-find link to the song (private links on Soundcloud and YouTube work really well), or an MP3 attachment; a link to Google Drive / Dropbox / etc. is OK, but a bit more fiddly!
- some basic bio information (e.g. when formed/started, location, genre, band member names where relevant ...) and at least one or two promo images 👍
