How to Submit Your Music to Spotify Playlists
Getting your music onto Spotify playlists is one of the most effective ways for independent artists to grow their audience organically. Unlike algorithmic playlists, independent curators hand-pick tracks based on mood, genre, and quality — which means a single placement can introduce your music to thousands of engaged listeners who actually care about what they're hearing.
There are several ways to approach playlist submission: dedicated platforms like SubmitHub and Groover, independent curators like Uncrumpled Playlists, campaign services like Playlist Push, or direct outreach. Each has different costs, response times, and success rates. Below, we break down everything you need to know.
