Distro Agency Reviews 18

Lynn and Alex are very responsive, collaborate to adhere to our needs, and work diligently to have the best results possible. They are a strong team to work alongside.

These guys are very skilled in running cross social platform advertising campaigns, in any budget range! Will certainly be a repeat customer :)

The team are always involved and give so much of their time and energy to help our art maximise with its potential. Couldn’t ask for a better team behind us!

always a pleasure working with the ICON island team.
straight simple and real authentic traction is helping grow my brand consistently for the past two years.

It's an absolute pleasure working with Lynn + her team! I just completed a press campaign with Icon Island + was thrilled to land a number of really positive reviews about my single, 'TKO'.

With Icon Island on my team I was able to grab the attention of writers at respected electronic music news sources, like @YourEDM + @WeRaveYou, and get quality articles about my release published.

I'd recommend working with Icon Island to any artists who are looking to build + foster a career in music.

Lynn and her team delivered on exactly what I paid for and I couldn't be happier. They were thorough and had great attention to detail. Super communicative and just an overall smooth process with great people!

I've been working with Distro Agency for almost 2 years now, and I have never been more satisfied with results. The team is extremely professional, cordial, transparent, and reply swiftly. I have worked with a hand full of agencies, and I can truthfully say that I have never worked with one as reliable that INCLUDED real payoff. They were the first I used, and I keep on coming back- and for a good reason. I have seen tremendous and expeditious results with all of my campaigns, and the exposure I received was unmatched. The team shared interest for my sound, even though it was out of the norm and didn't fit into a single genre (which is usually deemed as difficult to market to most demographics). They cared about the art and showed genuine interest in the realm I was seeking to dive into, which is very rare when it comes to marketing teams. They helped trigger the algorithmic playlists with each of my releases, which has translated to real life fans who reach out and continuously stream and follow my music. Distro has also landed me press which further helped with my verification, examples including well established music publications such as NOTION & EARMILK. Without them, my first release would not have been as successful as it is; it truly set the foundation for my roll out. To this day, all of my singles (even my first one) are receiving thousands of streams weekly because the algorithmic playlists have stayed activated... mind you I released my first song October of 2020. This is just some of the exceptional payoff from my campaigns that continues to benefit my career till today. I would recommend any artist to work with Distro Agency, and will continue to speak highly of their team due to their distinguished values and impact. Thank you Icon Island!

I did music as a passion but Icon allowed me to turn my passion into a business. I am going on my third project with Icon Lynn is phenomenal her entire team has allowed me to be the artist that I envisioned to be. I am still working with them because my records are still trending on TikTok and growing funds are constantly deposited into my account from results from the 100% marketing and streaming efforts.

Icon island has not only helped me with earning new listeners and followers with the play-listing option but they have helped me catch more eyes of labels and I have now been having meetings since my release with this company and I am now looking at the Opportunity to take my career to the next level. Lynn has been such a great help as well with giving tips for me as an artist to help continue to grow my fanbase and provide content tailored for a unique artist like myself to new potential supporters around the world while remaining authentic and true to self. I could go on and on about how much Icon Island has helped me gain the momentum I needed to push my career but I would like to end this with a show of appreciation to the team and a big thanks to Lynn, also I can’t express how excited I am to continue to work with this company on many future releases.

I have worked with Icon Island on a number of campaigns over the last 3 years and have always been impressed with the level of dedication, attention to detail and all around friendliness of the team, alongside the impressive results they have been able to deliver. As an independent artist I would thoroughly recommend them as a brilliant partner to have on your team.

Lynn and the team have been amazing. I think people shouldn’t thing that a company weather PR, label etc make them huge over night. It takes still good music and consistency and I feel like Lynn has been very transparent about that from the get go, kind of like help me to help you. The work doesn’t stop for the artist. I’ve seen great results in my Spotify algo analytics. It will translate into real audience tho when the music is hot. She will get the eyes and ears on it but you gotta provide the content. Just be ready to work your ass off. This industry isn’t supposed to be easy! Thank you icon agency for all the hard work.

I think a lot of the negative reviews are coming from people who are expecting Icon Island to take them from 0 to hero. When working with them I think it is important to access your OWN needs as an artist. This is my second time working with them. I see value in the play listing. I know these plays are not fake because along with new listeners I am also gaining followers. Sure their services are pricey, but I do think they are making real connections and the traction is organic, which is hard to find these days and is why I am fine with investing my money with Icon Island. I'm sorry to see so many negative reviews, but I think people have to understand this is a case by case type of thing. Every artist is different and will get different results. I think if you already have a foundation set then Icon Island will work better for you. You shouldn't expect them to turn you into a super star though. I haven't had any issues with Lynn. She is responsive and delivers exactly what is described.

Lynn Banks / Icon Island is to be avoided if you actually want real results with a reputable partner. Go ahead and look her up on LinkedIn and you'll see her only legitimate work experience is with a company who has totally cut ties with her. I had to file a fraud investigation with my bank but I got my money back. I have also connected with multiple artists she has taken advantage of / ripped off -- there's a reason Lynn isn't getting repeat clients.

Honestly your paying thousands of dollars for numbers that look good but do nothing for you. This 'marketing' is a scam and does nothing for actually growing an audience and core fan base. Learn from my lost thousands of dollars

Rude, unprofessional & unhelpful.

I needed a few corrections done for misprints due to misinfo I was given by a highly accredited music mogul. He's currently suffering from brain cancer & undergoing chemo so his recall isn't all there. I explained this to them but they refused to edit more than 1 time. They refused a retraction despite my offer to let them keep the full $1,250. I also have not been refunded for the 2 articles that I had canceled with them. I even offered to pay an additional $1,250 for a batch of new press about my signing with a label & mgmt co. I have the contract as hard proof so there would be no issue with a source. She refused. This is the worst PR experience I have ever had bar none.

I was excited at first and it hurts to write this review but it needs to be said. I purchased a standard Spotify Playlisting service, and it was nice the numbers were doing good and then I started looking at the playlists as well as the accounts running them. They are fake accounts with max 2-5 followers running playlists having over 40,000 likes. This is a bot farm. I’m very disappointed with what I paid for.

We have just started to use Icon-Island and am finding them to be a wonderful partner to get Soleil's career started. Lynn, MJ, and the entire team are caring people who really are looking out for our best interests. I would recommend them very highly to anyone looking for that special lift for their careers.
