About me

Gender Female
Location Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
Introduction I'm Kylie and I'm an English teacher by day and I work at a trade union by night. When I'm not doing that I work at 4ZZZ FM (Brisbane's community radio station), and when I'm not doing that I write + make zines of the punk-related variety...and hang out with my hound Ruby.

I'm also obsessed with op-shops, especially ones in the far reaches of suburbia. But even more than that, I love friends and sweet times and coffee and roadtrips and driving around by myself singing when no-one else can hear.

there's interviews on this here blog with: Le Tigre, Billy Bragg, Margaret Thrasher, The Gaslight Anthem, A Death In the Family, Fear Like Us, Tibor from Kafe Kult, Graham from Resist Records, Andy from Poison City Records, CJ from 4ZZZ/Sea Shepherd punkrock benefit CD, Trash Talk.

links to interviews from the radio show I do are also here: Only The Sad Songs podcasts
