Meet some of the staff and people behind the Wizrocklopedia.
Sagan Thacker – Wizrocklopedia Archivist
they/them
Sagan is an enthusiastic wizard rock fan and the host & producer of Radio Active Kids, an all-ages radio show which regularly spins wrock. They focus on the Wizrocklopedia Music Archive and will eagerly accept submissions from artists for their out-of-print wrock to be hosted there!! When they aren’t wrocking out, they’re DJing, going to library school and/or reading experimental comics, and they also make wrock very occasionally under the name Candle Wix. They would just like to say “ALL HAIL TO THE MIGHTY GLOWCLOUD!”
Bess – Wizrocklopedia Content Manager
she/her
Bess doesn’t know how she ended up here, but she’s happy to be included! She hosts WZRD Radio (no relation) and spends her time listening to wizard rock, writing murder mysteries, and wondering who let her be in charge of things. Her cat has no appreciation for her musical tastes, but her Slytherspouse is slowly coming around.
Susannah – Wizrocklopedia Website Manager
she/her
Susannah is a lifelong collector of song lyrics, which inspired the creation of her wizard rock website Your Wizard Rock Resource. She has brought these organizational skills to the Wizrocklopedia, where she usually wrangles tags and categories and keeps the site design up to date. In 2023, she edited and installed a spiffy new theme, incorporating modern website design and a smooth mobile browsing experience into this bastion of wrock history. You can chat with her on the Wizard Rock Discord.
Andrea – Wizrocklopedia Content Manager
she/her
Andrea is a queer Latinx lawyer who thought her life wasn’t busy enough when she started WrocktheReread in December 2018. She came into the Wizard Rock scene a little late having grown up in Miami, Florida where no musicians ever wanted to travel to, but has embraced the community enthusiastically. When she isn’t archiving wrock or doing playlist research, she is reading comics in Washington, DC with her partner, dog, and cat.
