This week’s Culture Radar guest is Ashley Colley, Marketing Account Manager, ACC Liverpool.
Loved: Dua Lipa at Anfield, hands down. There was endless dancing, and such a vibrant atmosphere around the stadium. The best tunes, she just killed it. 10/10 pop star – I’m such a fan! I’m frantically typing this because I enjoyed it THAT MUCH.
Looking Forward To: Inhaler at M&S Bank Arena on 11 October. They’re a Rock band from Dublin, and Liverpool is like a second home to them having practiced here for many years. To see them now about to headline at M&S Bank Arena is unreal. Also looking forward to the supports on this show, and the reunion of The Bandits!! Not a lot of people know but they’re an iconic Liverpool band from early 00’s who helped launch bands such as The Coral and The Zutons. I think that’ll be a great gig at the Arena, cannot wait!
Trivia: I used to be in a punk / metal band and toured UK / Europe for about 4 years. Career highlight was playing Glastonbury Festival, personal highlight was playing Download Festival; I’m a total metal head (who cannot handle a mosh pit anymore). A more recent and un-interesting fact about me is that I’m also totally on board with the Country Craze (unashamedly) and I cannot stop listening to any & all Country Music. So, if anyone has any good recommendations, please send Spotify links my way!
