With a background in journalism and graphic design as well as a love of music, Louise King joined Rhythm magazine in 1994 and proceeded to work her way up through the ranks— becoming editor of the magazine in 1999. Before leaving the magazine to start a family in 2007, Louise helped make Rhythm one of the most influential and important drum magazines in the world by balancing its coverage of legendary and up-and-coming drummers from the UK and the rest of the world with top-flight educational columns and tutorials. Louise rejoined the magazine as editor-in-chief in 2019 with the goal of building Rhythm into an international, multimedia hub for news about anything drum, drummer or drumming-related.
