Behind The Camera
About Me
The Social Crab is all about getting out and soaking up good food, live music, brilliant theatre, and great pints.
Based in West Yorkshire, Iām an arts reviewer, writer, and editor for On: Yorkshire Magazine, frequently covering gigs from the barrier, exploring northern dining rooms, and capturing the people and places that give our towns and cities their character.
No pretentious nonsense or corporate gloss ā just honest impressions, recommendations, and dispatches from the road.
