Nay McArdle

Nay McArdle loves good music, books, films and debate. When not writing about herself in the third person she can usually be found tweeting from @uneamino. She’s spent the past five years working in the media as a photographer, journalist, blogger and professional gig-goer. Apparently her Irish music blog Harmless Noise is pretty good. She lives in Dublin heaven with two kids, two cats and far too many DVDs.
