Sophie founded Music & Gigs because she saw a gap and decided to fill it. She leads all editorial direction, has interviewed the likes of Lewis Capaldi, Pale Waves, and Tom Grennan, and has a reputation for spotting great artists early. Writer, photographer, designer — Sophie wears a lot of hats, but the thread running through all of it is the same: a lifelong obsession with music and the people who make it.
