Pandora requires artists to submit their music for consideration before it appears in their catalog. This process is manual, meaning real people listen to submissions rather than algorithms. Here’s what you need and where to start.

Steps to Submit Your Music

• Visit Pandora’s official submission page.
• Make sure you have:
  • A Pandora listener account.
  • Your contact information.
  • Artist/band name.
  • Release name and type (album, single, etc.).
  • A valid link to at least one track on:
    • iTunes (US only)
    • Amazon Music
    • CD Baby
    • Bandcamp

What to Expect

• Pandora accepts only about 3–5% of submissions.
• Why so selective?
  • Pandora uses human curators, not algorithms, to review music.
  • This ensures quality and personalized recommendations.

Things to Note

• Submitting does not guarantee inclusion.
• Make sure your links are active and your release is available on at least one of the required platforms.
