Amazon Music Now Streaming Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, More



Those with an Amazon Prime membership will now have access to even more music from popular artists.


Amazon on Tuesday announced it has beefed up its Prime Music streaming service with select albums from Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, Lana Del Rey, Maroon 5, Of Monsters and Men, and more through a new deal with Universal Music. The list of new content also includes albums from Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, Ellie Goulding, Drake, Lorde, Jessie J, and Eminem as well as a "wide selection" of popular Jazz and Classical albums from Universal Music artists.

The newly added jams are now available for Prime members in the U.S. and U.K.

"Prime Music has already become a top destination for streaming music in the U.S. and U.K., and we are thrilled today to make it even better by growing our selection with Universal Music artists," Amazon's Vice President of Digital Music Steve Boom said in a statement. "From chart topping artists like Lady Gaga to legendary musicians such as Tom Petty and Nirvana, we know our Prime members will love listening to all the additional music that's now available as part of their membership."

Prime Music is available with a $99 yearly Prime membership via the Amazon Music app on iOS, Android, Fire devices, the Echo, or on the Web. The Prime Music catalog now includes more than one million songs, 1,000 playlists, and hundreds of stations. Prime also includes unlimited free two-day shipping and access to the Prime Instant Video catalog.

Meanwhile, on the music streaming front, Google this week announced plans to make its own Play Music service a little more family friendly. The Web giant plans to launch a new family plan with support for up to 6 people for just $15 a month.
