Eve Barlow is a Scottish-born, LA-based music journalist who has written for just about every great music and culture magazine out there, including Pitchfork, Variety and GQ, in addition to serving as deputy editor of iconic music magazine NME.

Eve has recently emerged as a powerful voice online and particularly on twitter, where she takes on questions related to rising global anti-Semitism. As a proud progressive, she tackles the issue from the left—and in doing so, offers a rare critique of the kind of anti-Semitic vitriol emerging from both sides of the political aisle. On account of this important and brave work, Eve was named to Algemeiner’s list of the Top 100 People Positively Influencing Jewish Life in 2020.
