Annaliese Baker

Annaliese Baker is a writer and photographer based in Chicago. She's been published in The Boston Globe, GBH/NPR, ECHO, and more. Music has always been important to her, so much so she lost an EpiPen in a mosh pit at Lollapalooza. She loves discovering new musicians, whether it's at a concert or an interview. She also enjoys brown butter recipes, long runs, and doing stand-up comedy. Work with her at annaliesesbaker@gmail.com.
