Dear Artist, Musician,
Representative, Fan,
Family Member, Etc.
Thank you for interest
in submitting music for
consideration by CBS
Records.
We make every effort to
listen to all music that
is sent to us, but we
ask that you follow one
of the following
submission methods
before simply attaching
a bunch of mp3s and
clicking on “send”.
Provide us with a link
to a myspace page and/or
a website that includes
links to your music.
This is our preferred
method for listening to
music, viewing images
and reading bios, press
releases etc. and we
strongly encourage you
to go this route with
us. We will be
able to consider your
music much sooner in
comparison to the next
two methods.
Attach no more than
two mp3 files to
your email and no
more than one image
and one bio.
Your total
submission can be no
larger than 10mb in
size, and our system
will bounce your
email right back to
you if total file
size exceeds 10mb.
Please only attach
mp3 files if you do
not have a myspace
page or website that
we can visit.
The email address for
submitting music via
either of the above
methods is as follows:
music@cbsrecords.com.
We aim for a 45-day
turnaround between
receiving music and
getting back to you with
our response.
Please do not send
additional music unless
you hear from a member
of our team requesting
that you do so.
Please do not call us
asking if we’ve received
your music, what we
think of it, etc.
We are not set up to
handle phone inquiries.
Also, please do not send
us any physical packages
– those will be
immediately returned.
You will hear
from us – that, we
promise.
Please pardon the
detailed guidelines, but
we are one of the few
labels that accept
unsolicited material,
and we find these
methods enable us to
stay on top of the
submissions and give the
music proper
consideration.
We are not a publishing
company and our artists
write all of their own
material, so please do
not submit songs that
you’d like our artists
to consider recording.
Thanks again, and we
look forward to
listening to your music.
Sincerely,
Your friends at CBS
Records
