What a music publicist does
A music publicist, or PR agency, is the link between an artist and the media. For a release, that means writing the press release and the press kit, building a list of journalists, radio producers and playlist editors who cover that kind of music, sending the record at the right time, following up, and organizing interviews and sessions. A good musician publicist also knows when not to pitch: a jazz trio record does not go to the same people as a pop single.
At Monart the PR work is part of the release plan. Press dates are set against the release date, the singles, the concerts and the ads, so that each piece of coverage arrives when it can be used. See also our guide how to find a music publicist.

How a PR campaign works
- 8 to 12 weeks before release: press kit, press release (EN/FR/ES as needed), photos, media list by country.
- 6 to 8 weeks before: first wave to monthly print magazines and radio, which plan furthest ahead.
- 2 to 4 weeks before: online media, weeklies, playlist editors; interview and session requests.
- Release week and after: follow-ups, reviews, concerts tied to the release, and a press report with every piece of coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions About Music PR
What is the difference between a music publicist and a music PR agency?
None in practice: both pitch an artist’s music to journalists, radio and online media. “Publicist” is often used for one person, “PR agency” for a team.
Do you guarantee press coverage?
No serious PR agency can guarantee coverage: editors decide. What we guarantee is the work: a targeted list, a professional press kit, timely pitching and follow-up, and a report with every response.
Can you show real press coverage and playlist results?
Yes. Every campaign ends with a report listing each article, broadcast and playlist, and the press our artists received is listed on this page with links to each case.
How do I get press coverage for my music?
Getting press coverage requires a professional press kit (EPK), a compelling press release, and targeted outreach to relevant media outlets. We maintain relationships with music journalists, bloggers, and playlist curators across Europe and Latin America, and we craft pitches tailored to each outlet’s editorial focus.
How much does a music PR campaign cost?
PR campaign costs depend on the scope, duration, and number of territories targeted. A focused campaign for a single release differs from a sustained PR effort across multiple markets. Contact us for a free consultation to discuss your goals and receive a custom quote.
How long does it take to get press results?
Press campaigns typically run 6 to 12 weeks. Initial outreach begins 4 to 6 weeks before release, with coverage appearing from release week onward. Some publications have longer lead times, so results can continue for months after the campaign launches.
Can you get me on Spotify playlists?
We handle playlist pitching as part of our PR and marketing campaigns — both editorial playlists through Spotify for Artists and independent curated playlists. While no one can guarantee editorial placement, our strategic approach to pitching and our understanding of curator preferences maximize your chances.
Do you work with media in multiple languages?
Yes. Our trilingual team (English, French, Spanish) pitches to media across Europe, Latin America, and North America. This multilingual approach is one of our key differentiators, allowing us to secure coverage in markets that monolingual agencies cannot reach.
