Burning Ambulance is a unique online journal of arts and culture. We cover jazz, metal, and music that doesn't fit into any category...and literature, painting, movies and more. We premiere songs, videos, and whole albums that you won't hear anywhere else, and interview artists, asking them questions no one else would.

Since launching in January 2010, Burning Ambulance has published close to 700 features, interviews, and reviews. Our average album review is between 500 and 1000 words, and our interviews run in the thousands of words, investigating artists' work and creative philosophies in depth. Our only criterion for coverage is: Do we love the work?

Now, we've launched a podcast. Every two weeks, we'll interview a musician whose work speaks to the Burning Ambulance readership, whether they make avant-garde jazz, modern composition, death metal, or some previously unimagined combination of sounds. 

Supporting Burning Ambulance on Patreon will allow us to continue this project, and BA as a whole. You'll be paying for our web hosting, and allowing us to start paying our contributors and potentially expand into additional realms. In exchange, you'll get exclusive podcast episodes (sometimes they'll be longer versions of the episodes we release to the broader public, while other times they'll be entirely subscriber-exclusive) and content available nowhere else.
