Music fans are generally an opinionated bunch and beefheart.com would like to give you an opportunity to share those opinions with the world via the e-zine, Clicks and Klangs.

If you are passionate about the music that you listen to, write about or perform, and can write in a clear, informative, eloquent or humorous style then we'd be very interested in featuring your musings on any forms of music from any era. Whether your subject is adventurous, affecting, confounding, soothing or just plain absurd; if it has moved you to tap away at your word processor then we want to know all about it.

If you would like to write an article for Clicks and Klangs then I'd certainly like to encourage you to do so. Contributions from readers are extremely welcome so whether you already have an article in mind or would just like to offer your services, please do get in touch by sending an e-mail to graham@beefheart.com

Essentially, the choice of subject and the style in which you write about it is entirely your own.

In particular, we're always after probing interviews with innovative musicians or special features on cutting-edge music, whether contemporary today or from some long forgotten, once-defining Zeitgeist.

Alternatively you may prefer to write a review on an album release, a book or a recent gig that you have seen. You may also have an old favourite that you simply want to tell the world about which we would also like to feature.

Please try to give as much background to the artist or genre in question as possible in these kind of pieces, and include some suggestions about where the interested reader can find out more. One of the primary aims of Clicks and Klangs is that readers are not alienated by reading articles about music that they do not know written in a style that does not inform. You may love the music of Mister King Jeroo, but other readers quite possibly do not know his recordings and want to find out who he is and why you chose to write about him in the first place.

All contributions remain the intellectual property of the author, but please do include a credit for beefheart.com if you reprint your article elsewhere.

If you wish to reproduce a Clicks and Klangs article elsewhere then please drop us a line and we will put you in touch with the piece's author.
