I think you could put something like this in the script:

emacsclient "org-protocol://capture?url=$DWB_URI&title=$DWB_TITLE"

If you wanted to add the extra project and tag information (e.g.,
"music"), you could create a custom capture template and then designate
the template shortcut (e.g., "m") in the script:

emacsclient "org-protocol://capture?template=m&url=$DWB_URI&title=$DWB_TITLE"
