Andrew Mueller is a Contributing Editor at Monocle, and broadcasts regularly on its radio arm, Monocle 24. He also writes for The Guardian, Uncut and New Humanist, among other titles, and has reported from more than 80 countries. He is the author of three books of arguably somewhat self-aggrandising non-fiction: "Rock & Hard Places”, "I Wouldn't Start From Here” and “It’s Too Late To Die Young Now”. He was also partially responsible, in cahoots with Luke Haines and Cathal Coughlan, for the acclaimed musical historiography "The North Sea Scrolls". His country band, The Blazing Zoos, will release their second album in 2015. (image (C) Andy Vella / Foruli Ltd 2012. All rights reserved) @andrew_mueller
