Never heard of HotPress? … its a live one!
“Hot Press is widely regarded among the world’s great rock ’n’ roll and youth culture magazines. Established in 1977, it is living proof that you don’t survive, much less move forward, by standing still.
Hugely influential, Hot Press has been at the heart of many of the vital social and cultural changes that have taken place in Ireland over recent decades, and particularly during the past five years. Its editorial environment is both playful and serious, mixing short sharp, whip smart writing with longer more reflective feature pieces.
Hot Press brings hot young writers through on an ongoing basis. But editorial standards never falter –which is why Hot Press remains a byword for top quality writing on all aspects of popular culture: from music, cinema, games and comedy to sport, fashion, gender and lifestyle.
It’s also why the famous Hot Press Interview – home over the years to bishops, presidents, authors, actors and rock stars – is still the most quoted in the business. And why Hot Press is renowned for its campaigning role.”
