Contact

Rhythm Changes publishes multiple days per week at 6:00am Pacific Time (PT) from Vancouver, BC, Canada. The publisher and de facto editor-in-chief is me, Will Chernoff.

You can contact me via will at rhythmchanges dot ca.

To send promotional, bulk email like press releases and mailing lists, please send to the following email address only: gigs at rhythmchanges dot ca.

Unless you've sent to me for a long time already, I will ask you to switch to this address for bulk mailings and may report your email as spam if you don't comply. One-on-one email is always okay to my personal email address.

Lead time

If you are an artist or a publicist, you may wish to pitch a new, upcoming album for the next reviews issue or let us know about an upcoming special occasion in Metro Vancouver.

You can also send information about gigs. The required information is:

  • start time
  • venue
  • band billing, including all musicians playing (I may alter the billing slightly to fit the gig list's style)
  • admission price and, if tickets are required, a ticket link

The gig list is a monthly webpage. For the full gig list with the most up-to-date information across the entire month, visit rhythmchanges.ca/gigs.

To make sure your gig appears in the free weekly email (Tuesdays), I recommend reaching out to supply the information by the deadline of Monday, 12:00pm Pacific Time.

Blogroll

For everyone my age and younger, a blogroll is when someone lists a bunch of links to other websites. Usually the links go to other blogs, but mine will include any other organizations in our scene. Here's an incomplete start to mine:
