About the Role
So won't the real music lovers please stand up? 'Cause we're looking for freelance music writers to join our writers room and contribute articles on our digital publishing platform, with the potential to host or speak on podcast episodes.
These writers would be motivated, well-researched individuals passionate about finding and platforming emerging artists; globalisation in the music industry's geo-cultural landscape; and how the inner workings of the industry affect music artists on the rise.
We especially encourage applications from writers from minority ethnic backgrounds and the LGBT+ community, as well as those based outside London, to reflect the diversity of our global community.
