Amazon music has a nice “my soundtrack” feature, which is based around music from bands you like, but also helps you discover similar bands and plays some nice random music.

 

I can search a band “station” on the Sonos App, but I can’t find anything to do with “My soundtrack” - I’m guessing its just not available?

You can use the Amazon app to play to Sonos.  That should make all functionality available.

Thank you for your reply - is that via casting? If so looking at the help article it requires Alexa-enabled devices, which I don’t have, or Airplay which only appears to be supported on one of my three Sonos speakers.

 

Edit: No you are quite right, whilst Airplay only found one of my speakers, it’s working across the set. Thank you!

Airplay can be used but is not what I was referring to. You can select a Sonos speaker directly in the Amazon Music app.

Hm - I can’t find a way to do that, and when I look at the article you linked it only mentions casting?

 

When I select casting it says no devices available except for Airplay (which can then connect).

Have you installed the Sonos   skill for Alexa as instructed?

No, as I said none of my Sonos speakers have Alexa support.

That is irrelevant for these purposes, as you would have discovered if you had read further. I have tried my best.
