About me:
Born Snapped is a fortnightly live night at The Station in Whitley Bay and The Cluny in Newcastle helmed by music journalist
Andrew Fenwick and photographer
G who work for the likes of Dazed & Confused, Metro, The Independent, NME, Playlouder and The Stool Pigeon.
"These Born Snapped nights have already played host to some fantastic local bands, and it's good to see a decent local music night outside of the centre of Newcastle. If you're a NARC. reader who lives in or around Whitley Bay, you could do a lot worse than attend one of these great gigs appearing on your doorstep." - NARC.
"I ponder at what glorious beginning of summer gig I plan to attend this week... It's a no brainer really, as local promoters Born Snapped have their usual selection of superb North East talent on show at the Station Hotel in Whitley Bay this Friday. Renowned for playing host to some fantastic bands in a cosy venue, just a stones throw from the Metro. Sod iTunes, get out the house and go go go...” – The Chronicle.
"I love Born Snapped even though I've never been" - Ewen MacIntosh (Kieth from The Office).
