Lyric Lounge Review is an independent music news and reviews site running nationally but specialising in the East Midlands.

Established in 2005 by Jordan and Tanya Russell, a husband and wife combo whom both have extensive experience in music journalism. They currently have a team of writers extending from Bournemouth to Scotland and everywhere in between. Lyric Lounge has helped launch the careers of talented writers such as Bex Bailey, winner of Young Journalist of the Year.

Lyric Lounge’s dedication to good, honest reviews and meaningful articles has helped them establish a loyal readership of over 10,000 readers per month. Once a year, they also produce an end of year fanzine which is distributed across 5 major city centres in England.

Lyric Lounge has recently expanded to incorporate comedy events due to popular demand gaining sponsorship by Funhouse Comedy, a leading national comedy outfit.

Lyric Lounge has a strong ethos of taking music journalism back to being about the musicians; we are committed to giving readers what they want – honest reviews and news about the artist they love.

We do not believe that the journalist is bigger than the act, and we do not hide behind vacuous reviews which tell the reader nothing about the music.

Lyric Lounge is ALL about the acts for the reader. The founders maintain the site for the love of music and comedy. Lyric Lounge is a not-for-profit site.
