Music lovers, I know you could spend hours on Ones To Watch. But COIN has a special place in my heart, so to me, it’s even better.
Do me a favor and check out the COIN issue because objectively, it’s great. The mags have gorgeous, trendy layouts and highlight some killer talent. When you’re featured on Local Wolves, you’ll know you’re on your way to the top. Showcasing a diverse array of musical talent, Local Wolveshas gained quite a following. Bottom line, they’re worth submitting to if you share a love of music – but they get a ton of submissions, so don’t be too offended if you don’t hear back. From premieres, to interviews, to reviews, to weekly roundups of the best tunes, they do it all. Atwood MagazineĪtwood Magazine’s tagline is “for the love of music,” which is really what it’s all about, right? They cover a ton of stuff across a really wide range of genres, from big artists like The 1975 to new indie acts like treesreach. If you’re looking to strike a chord with the young and artistic, The Luna Collective is where you need to be. From musicians to poets, we strive to cover a diverse amount of rising artists.” They feature talent across the entire creative spectrum. The Luna Collectivedescribes itself as “an online and print magazine that shines a light on young emerging creatives. (And I’m just kidding, Buffalo is great.) 7. If you’re looking to submit your music, give Elicit Magazine a shot. Their main categories are interviews (like this one with Jordy), reviews (like this beautiful piece on Heather Brave), and – particularly cool – “ latest news”, which is a space for newer artists to submit press releases for publication. Who knew great music coverage could come from Buffalo, NY? That’s the surprising home-base of Elicit Magazine, a newer blog that does a nice job of balancing coverage of mainstream acts with coverage of up-and-coming artists. I get about 9 million email submissions a day to Two Story Melody. Want to pitch your music so people actually respond? Not only will The Young Folks review your album, they’ll do a show review too - See what they had to say about Riot Fest.

(Shout out to Ava!) Seriously, if you’re looking for incredible photos to add to your press kit, you need to reach out to Honey Punch.

It’s the one-stop-shop for performers, producers and music junkies everywhere.Ĭheck out their Feb/Mar 2019 issue and see if you’d be a good fit.

Get a taste of Pitchfork‘s style with this comprehensive piece on Ariana Grande’s thank u, next. We can’t forget their festival in Chicago.

If you’re looking to be featured, hit me up and I’ll try to put in a good word.Ĭheck out Issue 12 – Anti-Valentines. They focus on up-and-coming alternative and indie pop artists, providing a good mix of interviews, editorials and photography. I love the opportunities its given me and the artists it has connected me with. I write for Heart Eyes, so the magazine has a special place in my heart. They’ve got a solid following, so if you score a review there’s a good chance you’ll gain lifelong fans. If you’re looking for some publicity that won’t cost you your firstborn, check out some of these sites. We’re all familiar with the giants like Rolling Stone and Billboard, but any new artist will tell you that getting your name and story on those sites is like pulling teeth when you don’t have a solid PR team backing you up. With countless tracks released every day, there’s no shortage of music review sites out there. One feature with the right magazine or review site could send your music to the top of the charts.
With so many musicians in that in-between stage - producing quality music but not quite making it big - publicity becomes everything. They hope and pray for their fairy godmother (or dream talent agent) to waltz in and see just how stellar they are. Thousands of musicians play in bars each night just waiting to be discovered by the right person.
