Amazon said it will air a set of three shows featuring music stars to commemorate and promote Prime Day, when the online shopping giant boosts traffic by offering bargain prices.
The Prime Day Show segments will feature Billie Eilish, H.E.R. and Kid Cudi. The show will be available starting June 17 on Prime Video for 30 days to all viewers whether or not they’re Prime members.
Amazon's Prime Day runs June 21 and 22.
“Working with Billie Eilish, H.E.R., and Kid Cudi to bring their music to life through these imaginative experiences has been incredible,” said Ryan Redington, VP of music industry at Amazon Music. “Watching these globally renowned artists create three shows from the depths of their imagination has been unlike anything we’ve ever done before. We’re thrilled to bring fans along with us to celebrate these three remarkable artists and Prime Day.”
