Toonwaves is a new webzine dedicated to music and culture in the North East. Launched in May 2009, it aims to encompass cutting-edge features, reviews, news and previews documenting musical happenings in Tyneside.
Toonwaves was devised by Newcastle based Journalist Toby Rogers, who told The Gen: “I love this city and I’m proud of its artistic output”.
Rogers continued: “With the recent successes of Maximo Park, Detroit Social Club, The Chapman Family and Beth Jeans Houghton (pictured above), it feels like the UK is finally starting to take notice.”
With significant experience contributing freelance features and reviews to both the UK and US music press, Toby is obviously well placed to document independent music in the region.
