Free Counseling Services
It’s okay not to be okay.
That’s why Sony Music artists around the world have access to free, confidential counseling services in over 70 languages.
We offer the ability to connect with a licensed therapist as part of our Artist Assistance Program, which provides wellbeing resources to on-roster Sony Music artists globally.
Artist Healthcare Advocacy
Navigating the American healthcare system can be challenging.
Sony Music artists have dedicated healthcare advocates in their corner so they don’t have to go at it alone.
As part of our Artist Assistance Program, on-roster and legacy SME artists in the U.S. can access free, personalized healthcare advocacy services for confidential support in obtaining and utilizing healthcare
coverage, locating a doctor, managing healthcare bills, and more.
Legacy Unrecouped Balance Program
Long-term artists want more financial opportunities.
Through our Legacy Unrecouped Balance Program, we’ve paid through millions of dollars globally to thousands of qualifying artists signed over 20 years ago. We’re just getting started.
New cohorts of our music creators and participants become eligible for the program annually at the start of each year, creating more financial opportunity for greater numbers of our long-standing artists.
Real Time Artist Tools
Music creators want fast, flexible access to their earnings.
Sony Music participants have withdrawn millions of dollars using our industry-leading
Cash Out and Real Time Advances
features.
It’s all part of our suite of industry-leading Real Time Artist tools providing artists with best-in-class payment solutions, and up-to-the-moment updates on their earnings and audience engagement data.
