Tara Mahadevan is a Chicago-based journalist, who has been writing professionally for seven years. She got her start in her hometown of St. Louis, where she first wrote for the Riverfront Times, and later moved to New York, where she was given the chance to work with The Fader, Complex, Pigeons & Planes, Genius, Clash Magazine and more. Much like New York, she moved to Chicago on a whim in 2015, where she expanded her creative practice beyond journalism, to video and event production, creative direction, and curation. Her aim is to always champion music discovery and emerging and indie artists—and to dig deep into the communities that rear them.
