Hello! I’m Amy, 17 years of age, from Hertfordshire and music at the moment for me, is what I live for. My ipod and spotify are my babies! Haha. I love the way music has the capability of reflecting a mood, or even being the cause of it; we all have songs that make us happy and songs that will make us down. However, I believe that, that is what makes music, ANY MUSIC, so powerful. For me, winning the Topman CTRL would be an actual dream come true, I would buy everyone at Underage cupcakes (nom), that is how happy I would be! My ambition is to work in radio/presenting/anything that includes music, although experience and opportunities like this rarely come around nowadays. This is my passion and I would be forever grateful if that opportunity was given to me.

The track that I absolutely LOVE at the moment is by a band called Francesqa and its called All I Had. They’re associated with bands such as You Me At Six, Canterbury and Futures. They’re also slightly new on the scene, although they have recently garnered bigger attention, which they fully deserve!  

I have a quirky, bubbly personality that would shine through when interviewing the amazing people at Underage Festival. My personality also transcends into my style, Topshop actually being my favourite shop on the High Street. I would extremely enjoy talking about the new people who are arriving onto the music scene and being the general ‘controller’ of it all for the month.

So please, please, with cherries on top give me this opportunity, I live and breathe music.

Amy Affleck xo
