We are looking for writers who can contribute, a minimum of 2 articles a month, writing to a good standard and able to meet tight deadlines, in a professional manner. Ideally writers will be in the area, however it is not insurmountable if you live outside the area, please contact us to discuss.
For photographers, we are looking for photographers who have built up a portfolio and have some experience in the area (additional benefits include opportunity to advertise through watermarks and links).
In exchange we offer the opportunity to have your contribution seen by a large local and national audience and provide good links into the music scene in the area. We will administer issues regarding press passes for gigs and festivals, access to acts etc. You will get experience of working in a team (albeit virtually) of like minded individuals. (you can see some of the team ).
Positive feedback from our contributors has come from the likes of The Darkness, Dave Clark, Vintage Trouble and White, as well as industry professionals.
