Amazon and Sky deepen existing partnership with the arrival of the Amazon Music app

The Amazon Music app has arrived on Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q today with millions of songs and albums, thousands of playlists, and latest releases to enjoy, all via the app.

To give it a go, simply say “Hello Sky, open Amazon Music” to your Sky Glass or “Amazon Music” into your voice remote, or find it in the apps rail. You'll discover a wealth of playlists curated by Amazon Music experts, including some of the biggest songs in the world on All Hits, the best of UK rap, R&B, drill, grime and afro-beats on +44, the hottest dance tracks in the UK on Dance UK, exciting new rock music from around the world on Rock Scene or happy, upbeat hits to make you feel good on Feeling Happy. There is also an abundance of playlists to soundtrack your day, from cooking and relaxing to dinner parties and working out.

Amazon Music has three tiers for listeners to choose from:

  • Enjoy a selection of top playlists on the Amazon Music ad-supported service for free
  • Prime members can enjoy over 100 million ad-free songs in shuffle mode, and All-Access playlists at no additional cost with their existing subscription
  • Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers can listen to over 100 million ad-free songs on-demand including the latest releases

“At Sky we’re focused on bringing people the best entertainment experience, and the launch of Amazon Music on Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q really emphasises that. Fans can enjoy a huge selection of brilliant music and playlists on their TV alongside the best range of shows, movies and fitness content,” said Fraser Stirling, Global Chief Product Officer at Sky. “… and what better way to listen to your favourite music than on Sky Glass with its amazing sound!”

Karolina Joynathsing, Director, Business Development at Amazon Music added; “We are delighted to bring Amazon Music to Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q. Sky provides their subscribers a one-stop-shop for entertainment content, in all of its forms, and I’m thrilled to see Amazon Music now part of that offering”.

Tune into all your favourites by simply saying “Hello Sky, Music” to your TV and uncover a whole collection of songs, albums and more from a range of brilliant entertainment apps. Today’s announcement marks further collaboration between Sky and Amazon, after the Amazon Prime Video app launched on Sky Q in 2020 and Sky Glass in October 2021.
