Far Out is a British online culture website, headquartered in London and founded in 2010. Far Out focuses on independent and alternative culture, reviewing music, films and the arts along with relative interviews and curated playlists.[1][2][3]
History
Far Out was founded in 2010 by Lee Thomas-Mason, then a student of Leeds Metropolitan University.[citation needed] Shortly after, Jack Whatley became an editor of the website as both pushed the content into new directions.[citation needed] Lee Thomas-Mason had previously worked as a sports reporter at Sky Sports, The Mirror and Metro.[4]
While first focusing on unsigned artists and independent music venues with a Gonzo journalism approach, Far Out expanded into coverage of cinema in 2013 and, subsequently, included curated travel, arts and photography sections.[5][6]
Far Out was the panellist for the Tramlines apply to play 2022.[7]
