The Journal of Music is always seeking to grow its range of paid contributors, both reviewers and opinion article writers.

If you are interested in being commissioned to write for us, please send three sample reviews to editor [at] journalofmusic.com. Please include ‘Writing for JM: Reviews’ in your subject line. We are particularly interested in contributors in the following genres: traditional/folk, jazz, hip hop, classical, contemporary, electronic, opera, indie rock and pop. 

If you have an idea for an opinion article, please send a brief pitch to editor [at] journalofmusic.com. Please include ‘Writing for JM: Opinion’ in your subject line. 

This is an open call with no deadline. Before submitting, please read some of our recent reviews and opinion articles. For information on our current payment rates, please email editor [at] journalofmusic.com.

Subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date on our latest news, reviews, articles and opportunities.

We look forward to reading your work.
