Synced lyrics are all the rage.

It’s that thing on Instagram and Apple Music where lyrics scroll — in perfect time — with the music.

Karaoke-style, so that listeners can follow (and sing) along.

Starting today, DistroKid lets any artist automatically create & upload synced lyrics.

DistroKid is the only distributor in the world with this (??).

We made a syncing interface that’s super easy. Just listen to your song and tap the spacebar (or screen on mobile) every time there’s a lyric. And that’s it — your synced lyrics are uploaded to Instagram, Apple, and more.

A lot of people tell us it’s fun & like a game.

Behind-the-scenes, our system leans on a company called Musixmatch to interface with Facebook & Instagram’s lyric ingestors (thank you, awesome & brilliant Musixmatch team!)

Get your lyrics synced! Here’s how:
Sign into DistroKid → Settings (gear icon)→ Lyrics

Thank you for reading. Please enjoy this and all the other things DistroKid makes possible.
