Billy Cassidy

An East London native, Billy grew up in the heart of grime culture, as well as with easy tube access to the sweaty London indie venues that many iconic bands first made their name. With much of his youth spent floating between those conflicting scenes, Billy holds first-hand knowledge of an independent artist's struggle. While passionate about writing, he's also passionate about Channel 4-era Big Brother.

Having taken punches to the head from the biggest and ugliest of men, Billy simply hopes to hold on to his writing ability long enough to have a brief career in journalism
