Step 2 – Claim your Pandora AMP Artist, Manager, or Label account

Claim your Pandora AMP Artist account here. After your claim is verified, you will receive access to AMP’s powerful suite of analytics, customization, and content creation tools. 

Our Creator support team will also ensure that your music is analyzed by Pandora’s Music Genome Project® team so that it can play on Pandora radio stations. After our analysts identify up to 450 musicological attributes to describe your tracks, fans will be able to immediately start a new station based on your artist name or one of your tracks, and the Music Genome Project will begin matching your music with similar artists and tracks on listeners’ stations.

Getting your artist’s music analyzed will also unlock the ability to use AMP’s Artist Audio Message and Featured Tracks promotional campaign tools. Claim your Pandora artist profile today to get started!
