About Us

Features, Interviews and the Artists Worth Your Time

NewMusic.News covers features and long-form interviews across every genre. We publish explanatory journalism about how music actually gets made, released and paid for, rather than press-release coverage of what came out this week.

We write at length because some subjects do not survive compression. A feature here follows an argument rather than a news cycle, and an interview runs long enough for the answers to become interesting.

How we work

Articles here are written by Esther Winslow, who covers this beat for NewMusic.News. Pieces are researched and written rather than aggregated, and where a claim rests on a specific event, statistic or decision we check it against primary reporting before it publishes. We do not run articles built from a single aggregator.

We do not fabricate interviews, quotes or releases. If we have not spoken to someone, we do not imply that we have. Where a piece is analysis rather than reporting, it reads as analysis.

Who publishes this

NewMusic.News is part of the MW3.biz music network. MW3.biz connects independent and grassroots artists with music curators and publications, and supports artists self-managing their own careers. Coverage decisions here are editorial and are not determined by whether an artist has used that platform.

If you are an artist looking to promote a release, the platform is at mw3.biz.
