Event Information
Sean Rowley sits down with special guest Sylvia Patterson to talk about her life in music journalism, her two brilliant books, and of course her chosen Real Magic Record.
Sylvia Patterson is one of music journalism's best-known voices. She began her four decade adventure in magazines on Smash Hits in its million-selling late-80s heyday and went on to write for NME, The Face, Q and many others. Her 2016 memoir I'm Not With The Band was shortlisted for the Costa Biography Award and won Annie Nightingale's BBC Radio 1 Book of the Year. Her second, Same Old Girl (2023), told the unflinching story of her misadventure through cancer and miraculous recovery.
This is Part of our Real Magic Weekend.
