Pitching to Playlists on Spotify: How Conner Youngblood Made It

We joined Conner Youngblood in his hometown of Nashville-before heading out on tour in the UK-to find out how and why nature and travel is such a driving source of inspiration for his music. For the 30-year-old multi-instrumentalist pitching his music to playlists and utilizing Spotify for Artists’ data has been instrumental in spreading his music far and wide-this in turn enables and fuels his passion for travel, which then feeds back into his music.
In ‘How They Made It,’ a new video series from Spotify for Artists, we talk to artists about their hustle, their creative journey, and the knock-on effect utilizing Spotify tools has had on their career.

[@joogstar]

who funded it all ?

[@Skillanfg]

So email people and they will listen… in what world are people nice enough to actually hear a random person out. I find this story to be bs.

[@craigreeves715]

They accept none of my pitches so not its not possible for everyone to "make it big" all well bout to just quit anyways, since my playing is Sloppy and atrocious anyways, just go back to playing for myself. Spotify ran by jerks

[@amandabloom3139]

How to make it- Be Black and signed to a major or look trans gay or asian.

[@deliciousgrace3460]

If you want to join the ''We Unsigned Playlist'' just tell me your band name and song and it will be added to it.
