Bryget Chrisfield, Journalist

Bryget Chrisfield

A lifelong love of music and writing consolidated when Bryget Chrisfield started penning live reviews for Inpress (now TheMusic) while studying Professional Writing & Editing at RMIT. After graduating, Bryget was initially employed as full-time staff writer before being promoted to Victorian editor of this national street press publication - now website - where she remained for over ten years. She is currently a freelance journalist - her byline appearing in publications including STACK, The Big Issue, The Music and Beat - and it is through interviewing musical geniuses that Bryget finds true happiness.

Live Review: Bruno Mars
"We actually can't imagine Mars ever not dancing: in the supermarket checkout, on the beach - we're pretty sure he'd even dance while he's brushing his teeth and we're tipping his step of choice would be The Running Man."
