(and answers!)
What is DistroKid?
DistroKid is a service for musicians that puts your music into online stores & streaming services.
Then when people listen to your music, we send you money.
Why should I use DistroKid?
All your music should be in stores. DistroKid is the only service that lets you upload unlimited

way more expensive).
Also, DistroKid gets your music into stores in a fraction of the time it takes our competitors to get your music into stores.
We have
great customer service, daily stats, and a simple interface, too.
Who uses DistroKid?
DistroKid is for solo musicians, bands, DJs, performers, producers, and YouTube creators who record music at home or in the studio.
We have services for labels, too.
How much will it cost me?
Only $22.99 to upload unlimited songs & albums for a year.
How much of my sales does DistroKid keep?
None. You keep 100% of your royalties.

As Guitar World wrote, Rob is an "Internet guitar dude—and possibly the closest thing to an up-and-coming guitar hero in whatever confusing age we're living in these days."

The two things I love most about DistroKid are its simplicity, and its affordability. Releasing new music and getting music onto Spotify, Apple Music and iTunes—as well as monetizing YouTube—has never been easier or more affordable for me, than since I began using DistroKid.
John plays guitar for legendary hardcore/metal band, Candiria. He also plays with Spylacopa, and runs the independent record label, Rising Pulse Records.
Zach Marsh

I love DistroKid because I release a large volume of content online and DistroKid has no cap. I want a one-stop shop to upload my music to every platform on the market, and DistroKid makes it stupidly simple for me. More people than ever are hearing my music because you can find it anywhere.

Todd Bryanton
“
DistroKid is the fastest, most reliable way for me to distribute my music. I love only paying a single annual fee rather than paying per release; this saves me hundreds of dollars every year, and lets me upload music whenever I want. DistroKid's 'Teams' feature makes it easy to automatically to split up payouts with other collaborators on a track, so we can focus more on creativity, than on accounting.
Todd Bryanton is a film and TV composer, and a YouTuber who releases electronic music under the name LilDeuceDeuce. The music videos on his LilDeuceDeuce channel have received over 32 million views.

Ray Harmony

The day I discovered DistroKid was one of the happiest days of my 20-year music career! Finally, there was a distribution company that understood musicians. We musicians need a world-class distro service, but we need it to be super simple and cheap as chips, cos we wanna spend all our time & money making more music instead. Their customer care is second-to-none. DistroKid is a dream-come-true for any serious musician.
Ray Harmony has dedicated his life to using the power of music to inspire positive change in the world, which he does through Revolution Harmony. He's an award-winning music lecturer, composer, performer, producer, journalist, and author. Ray also makes music with multiplatinum Grammy winners (Serj Tankian from System of a Down, Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine, and many more)—then donates all the proceeds to charity.
