Shebang is a light blue homemade zine crammed with music features, travel guides, artist profiles, craft tutorials and any other fancies that catch our eye!
We believe that the simple things in life should be celebrated and shared; the new favourite record you've found for pennies in a charity shop, the cake recipe your nan passed on or the gig last night that made your heart skip...
We're not elitist with who we include in our pages; lesser-known bands as well as those currently courting the limelight lean against each page, and unknown artists and designers share their inspirations amid illustrations and photographs.
