New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Everyone knows how important the holiday season is for people around the world. It doesn't matter which part of the world you belong to; the Christmas spirit is enough to get you on your toes. You might have already heard about Oprah topping the charts during every Christmas season. Christmas songs become a huge thing during every season, which is why it is such a big opportunity for musicians who are trying to get themselves noticed in the industry. In this article, I am going to highlight three Spotify marketing tips that you can use during the holiday season so that your songs make it to the top charts.
Record Holiday Cover Songs
Most artists fall into one of two camps: musicians who perform original music and musicians who perform cover songs. Performing cover songs is one of the easiest ways to make a name for yourself, and covering holiday songs means that you are targeting a wide audience that is going to increase your chances of success. If you have what it takes to be a musician, you can easily attract a lot of people by making holiday cover songs and releasing them on Spotify.
There are dozens of holiday songs that are in the public domain (and free to record) that you can use as part of your Spotify marketing strategy; if you have your heart set on a song that is still under copyright, you can use a website like Easy Song Licensing to get the right to record it under your own name. Make sure that you find a famous song that already has a lot of views. Making a cover of a famous song is going to increase the chances of success and you becoming viral. All it takes is one single cover song to make it into the holiday playlist, and you will be automatically set for the rest of the season and the holidays to come.
Release Your Own Holiday Music
There are two options that you can go for. You can either make a cover of famous Christmas season songs, or you can make your own holiday music. However, you have to realize that releasing your own music means that you have to do double the work. You are going to need to plan ahead and get the lyrics at least a month before the season. Recording the song can take a week, and editing it will require another week. Once you have gotten everything down to perfection, you can release your song on Spotify before the holiday season hits so that you can take advantage of Spotify marketing.
Get On a Holiday Music Playlist
"The best way for indie artist to get more streams, gain more followers and get discovered" is to be on Spotify Playlist. This becomes even more important during the holidays. The chances of your songs becoming a hit during the holiday seasons are going to skyrocket if you can get yourself featured in the holiday music playlist. In order to make sure that you get on the playlist, you must do all the needed research regarding Spotify marketing and how to make a name for yourself and get your songs enlisted on these playlists.
