Spotify Fresh Finds Forward

Spotify has launched Fresh Finds Forward, a new program aimed at helping approximately 10,000 independent artists each year.

The artists selected will gain the resources, community, and support needed to turn early momentum into long-term growth.

From January 1, 2026 onward, all eligible artists added to any Fresh Finds playlist will be invited to join the program.

Once onboarded through Spotify for Artists, artists can access the program’s benefits for up to 12 months.

For any artists hoping to be considered for Fresh Finds, the best way is to pitch an upcoming release through Spotify for Artists.
