Whether it’s your first time pitching music to Amazon Music or you’re an old pro, we want to make the process as easy and transparent as possible. Here’s how to submit new releases to our team, and a look at how we can help you get it out to more fans.
I don't see my upcoming title under "New Releases". What should I do?
If it has been more than 24 hours since your new release was successfully delivered to Amazon Music and you still don't see it under "New Releases", try these troubleshooting steps:
Confirm with your distributor that your release has been successfully delivered to Amazon Music.
Confirm your new release is eligible for pitching - see following FAQ.
If by release date, you still don't see your content appearing in "New Releases", check to ensure your content is available for streaming from your artist profile on the Amazon Music app. Should you encounter a profile mapping issue, Report Issue within Amazon Music for Artists.
How can I pitch my music for programming and playlist consideration?
Once your new music has been delivered to us, it will appear in 'Profile & Tools' under the header "New Releases" in the Amazon Music for Artists app. Any team member with Owner or Admin access will be able to submit one track per new release. One pitch will be accepted for each team type i.e. Artist team vs. Label team.

Why is my release "Ineligible to pitch"?
Some of the most common reasons a release may be ineligible to be pitched are:
it has been pitched previously by another team member.
it is more than 14 days after street date based on album-level metadata.
it has been previously released on Amazon Music
Can I update a pitch after it has been submitted?
Once a pitch has been submitted, there is no way to make further changes. Be sure to coordinate with your team to ensure all important information has been included.
How do I submit country or territory-specific pitches?
All pitches received through the tool are considered global. As part of your pitch, feel free to provide us country-specific marketing information in the open text field.
Will I receive a status update or feedback on my pitch?
We will show which content has been pitched, but we will not show specific statuses regarding if a pitch has been reviewed, accepted/placed, rejected, etc.
