Do you live and breathe music?

Ever dreamed of interviewing bands, reporting on gigs and covering festivals?

Got some free time this summer?

For eight weeks from July - September 2009, you could work alongside 大象传媒 WM presenters Brett Birks & Louise Brierley.

Brett & Louise present 大象传媒 WM Introducing every Thursday night - the show dedicated to new musical talent in the West Midlands.

And now you can get involved!

The scheme is part of 大象传媒 Blast - a national project that allows young people the chance to gain valuable work experience in radio and online journalism.

大象传媒 Blast

You'll be actively involved in the West Midlands' music scene, going to gigs and reporting on bands, taking photos, writing reports and even making videos.

You must be into all genres of music - from hip-hop to heavy metal; acoustic folk to jazz and punk.

Your will work will supply a variety of content for both 大象传媒 WM Introducing on the radio and the 大象传媒 Birmingham and Black Country websites.

Most of all though, we'd like you to come armed with ideas of your own on how you can benefit 大象传媒 WM.

So if you've got some spare time this summer and fancy being a 大象传媒 Blast reporter, apply online to join the new music revolution.

Please note: applicants must be aged over 18. Whilst we welcome all age groups, this programme has been designed with the 18-22 age range in mind.
