Ellie Robinson, Contributor

Ellie Robinson is a Naarm/Melbourne-based music and pop culture writer, dog connoisseur and giant dork. Her work has been published globally in titles like NME, Australian Guitar, BLUNT, Mixdown and Guitar World, and she’s also scribbled up copy for record labels like UNFD, Domestic La La and Cooking Vinyl. 

Ellie gravitates closest to emo (all waves), alternative and pop rock, but she’s just as big a fiend for dubstep, country, hyperpop, indie… Her ears know no bounds. As a writer, she’s passionate about amplifying the voices of queer and trans artists, destigmatising mental illness, fighting for social justice and exploring the philosophical side of art. 

When she’s not writing, Ellie can be found fawning over vinyl records, enamel pins and plushies (shoutout to Blåhaj, the truest transfemme ally), snuggling up to her dog, or getting way too hyped over the latest MCU movie/show. And yes, she knows did the horns facing the wrong way – she cannot, in fact, name three Metallica songs.
