Pitches wanted for personal essay series (music) (worldwide) | $375 per essay

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: BANDAMP'S RESONANCE 

Mariana Timony, Senior Editor at Bandcamp, is looking for pitches:

I am once again accepting pitches for RESONANCE, a personal essay series on Bandcamp exploring our emotional relationship to music. We pay $375 per piece and you can pitch directly to memariana@bandcamp.com.

Here's the archive: https://daily.bandcamp.com/resonance

I am most interested in essays that explore the unusual and unexpected connections we make with music in our lives i.e., if you pitch me about a record that helped you through your breakup it's going straight into the trash you hopeless bore. Be specific when describing what experience your essay will cover and please please include a link to the Bandcamp page of the record you want to write about.

CONTACT INFORMATION (please do not share the email address publicly):

• Submissions: memariana@bandcamp.com
• Website: https://bandcamp.com/
