May I submit songs to Sony/ATV for review?
Yes we do accept unsolicited demos. It is preferable that you send an audio CD of your material and include photocopies of any images, press cuttings, gig lists etc. in the package. These can be sent to any of the A&R personnl listed on the contacts page. If you send any package and enclose a Stamped addressed envelope, it is our policy to return your material to you.

You can also email us a link to any web-based pages for us to hear and view your work, and we can accept music by MP3 file, but we request you send only ONE file for review (unless we request additional files). To send submission by email, please send to mailto:publishing_au@sonymusic.com.au.

Due to the very high amount of unsolicited material we get sent for review we do not guarantee a response, but if we like what we hear, we will of course be in touch!
