In January this year we introduced and thanked the first few CiB Supporters.

Congratulations were given to Raphael Selbourne for winning the 2009 Costa First Novel Award and we came across The Music Quarter, a new music blog.

Hustle made the move to the Midlands, we had a giggle with Kipple and the Emerging Festivals Fund was announced, with some of the fruits of that being revealed towards the middle part of the year. Leftfoot started their 10th birthday celebrations and our most popular post of the year was published.

Ian joined the CiB team, we got the first glimpse of WeVee and plans were announced for the CiB shop

We also waved hello to Jane Anderson, Mark Wilkinson, Lucy Pryor, Phill Blake, Helen Flanagan, Sarah Lynch, Jade Sukiya, Jodi Ann Bickley, Leon Sparkes and Luke Halliley.

We also said farewell to Neil Farrington.

Lucy Pryor is the snapper behind Angelfire Photography. In her own words:

Over the years she has photographed countless bands, gigs, events, concerts, portraits, and has branched out into wedding photography over the last two years. She is an avid contributor to many websites including BrumLive.com and PushToFire.com, and offical photographer to up-and-coming stars of 2009 – Rebel City Radio.

Here’s one of Lucy’s particularly effective promo shots for Rebel City Radio:
