I’m Jenn Pelly, a longtime writer on music and culture for Pitchfork and a freelancer for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, NPR, and elsewhere. I was a weekly contributor to the Goings On About Town pages of The New Yorker from 2021 to 2023. Here you’ll find sporadic footnotes to my published writing. Though the future is hard to predict, I may also share original work like interviews, essays, mixes, and music-critical miscellanea. My first book, The Raincoats, was published in 2017.
