International Jazz PR

At Jazzfuel, we’ve worked as international jazz publicists on over 300 albums from a mix of ground-breaking record labels and amazing independent artists.

Over the last 7 years, our jazz PR campaigns have helped pull in thousands of pieces of coverge from the best magazines, websites, blogs and radio stations around the world.

Read on to find out who we’ve worked with, what we do and how to apply…

In an ideal world, people would just discover great music organically. But in reality, you need to put it in front of the right editors, writers, producers and presenters multiple times.

You need to know who they are, how to approach them and when to keep chasing.

As jazz publicists we’ve had albums featured in most jazz magazines and websites around the world, including Downbeat, Jazzwise, Jazz Magazine, Jazzthing, Jazziz, Jazz Journal and many more…

Get a jazz publicist to shout about your new release for you!

If you’ve released music before, you might be familiar with the slight disappointment that your carefully crafted album is not creating as much of an impact on your career as you’d hoped.

Promoters don’t seem to be aware of it, fans who’ve shown plenty of interest in the past have not bought or downloaded it… and it’s not being mentioned by any blogs or jazz magazines.

All that time & money making the best possible album and not enough ‘wins’ with the release itself.

Of course, in an ideal world, people would just discover great music organically.

But if you want press coverage for an upcoming release, you need to ASK the right people for it. And, more often than not, you need to follow up again & again.

If you haven’t got a jazz publicist doing this for you, and you don’t have the time to do it consistently yourself, the chances getting the press quotes and attention you need and deserve are low.

This done-for-you jazz PR campaign takes care of things by sending effective, personalised pitching emails to a custom-built list of press targets, multiple times.

Translate great music into industry attention.

If you don’t have the time to do this yourself, our done-for-you press campaign takes care of things by sending effective, personalised pitching emails to a custom-built list of press targets around the world.

Here’s what we’ll do…

1️⃣ We’ll help you prepare your promo materials for presenting to press contacts.

3️⃣ We’ll prepare a press pitching email which introduces your project concisely and effectively.

4️⃣ We’ll send an email to each press target to introduce your project.

5️⃣ For any contacts that don’t reply, we’ll follow up in the following 6-8 weeks.

6️⃣ We’ll send a final report of the campaign, quotes & feedback once all coverage is in.
