Selective independent distribution

Distribution Is More Than
Uploading Music.

Brown’s A&R Group works with selected independent artists and labels to prepare releases professionally, deliver with accuracy, and build long-term catalog strategy.

Apply for distribution

Built for artists who are building a catalog—not chasing an upload.

Our role begins before delivery and continues after release. We look at the music, rights, brand readiness, release cadence, marketing commitment, and long-term potential before deciding whether a distribution relationship is the right fit.
