Aimsel Ponti is a music writer and content producer for the Portland Press Herald. She has been obsessed with – and inspired by – music since she listened to Monkees records borrowed from the town library when she was 6 years old. She bought her first Rolling Stones record at a flea market when she was in 7th grade and discovered David Bowie a year later. She's a huge fan of the local music scene and covers it along with national musical happenings in her column. You'll also find her out and about absorbing live music and shopping for vinyl at local record shops and flea markets. Aimsel regularly appears on the News Center Maine TV show “207” to preview upcoming concerts.
