P.R SERVICES, PRESS PLUGGING AND DISTRIBUTION

Matchbox Recordings specialises in writing and distributing press releases and promoting new release singles and albums to national and regional press, review sites and music publications.

Since our inception in 1997 have worked with many Independent artists, labels and Managers. We strive to provide the best promotion for every client we are involved with. Our goal is to create awareness of new artists and their product to potential record buyers.  

We realise how important your releases are to you so we offer a personal service and treat each release and client as top priority. We make sure we communicate with you in a fast and informative way and aim to build a good long term relationship.   

HOW DOES IT WORK ? 

After many years of promoting music to the press and music websites we have built up good relationships with various journalists. We will put together the mist effective press release to suit your campaign and distribute this to the press with sample copies of your release. 

This is followed up with telephone calls, emails and in some cases face to face meetings. The goal is to achieve the highest amount of printed and online reviews, features and mentions and relay this info back to you. 

DO YOU  PLUG ALL SUBMITTED RELEASES ? 

It's no use sending rubbish to the press so the frank answer to that is NO. We must be 100% behind our artists and have to be naturally enthusiastic when talking to our contacts so all promotions are subject to our review.

HOW DO WE GET GOING AND COST ?

Get in touch and if we like your music we can send you a proposal. If you are interested in us representing your band, label or artist please call us on:
