The Orchard has become the largest distributor of non-major label music in the world, with over 2,500 labels from over 50 countries and thousands of artists representing every music genre using The Orchard's revolutionary international distribution system. When you distribute through The Orchard, you get: DIGITAL & PHYSICAL DISTRIBUTION
The Orchard supplies your music to thousands of retail outlets, including every major digital music service, online CD retailer and traditional CD retailer. When you distribute through The Orchard, your fans can buy your music almost everywhere music is sold! Click here for details. MASS EXPOSURE
The Orchard uses its unique partnerships to give your music mass exposure. Your release will be registered with All Music Guide, the world's most popular and comprehensive music database, and Muze, a leading source of entertainment product information. Also, The Orchard's internal A&R department reviews every Orchard release for the possibility of further development. See our partners page for more. FULFILLMENT AND MORE
The Orchard fulfills orders from our retail partners, registers your release with Soundscan (who reports sales to the Billboard charts), and encodes your music to meet the specific and diverse requirements of each digital music service and retail outlet. The Orchard does all the leg work for you. ARTIST RIGHTS
When you distribute through The Orchard, you retain full ownership and rights to your recordings. Also, The Orchard's distribution agreement is non-exclusive. In other words, you are free to distribute your music to any outlets outside of The Orchard's current distribution partnerships. We don't want to limit your opportunities to grow!
