The internet has become the new center of the music world. Music placement in podcasts is a great way to boost your online promotion efforts for your band. It’s a great way to gain new exposure for your songs and reach a wider audience. There are loads of audio and video podcast shows out there are always seeking fresh new music to feature as the intro, outros, segues, or theme music for their online production. As the majority of these podcasts are independent in nature themselves, they often seek out music specifically from unsigned artists.
Targeting podcasts is a unique way for new and unknown bands and songwriters to find promotional outlets that haven’t been available to them before. Podcasters are often very accessible and easy to deal with and are often happy to entertain new music placement ideas for their podcast. Many of them drive pretty serious traffic to their shows, which means a healthy number of fresh ears for your music!
It’s for your music is also an excellent way to tap into a niche audience. Be creative here. Find podcasts on a subject matter whose audience might align nicely with your genre of music. You might try and find obscure ones and use trial and error to see which podcasts are worth coming back to for future music placements.
This list of 52 podcasts were pulled from all corners of the net. The subjects range from politics to women’s roller derby to midwestern farming. The key criteria that made them list worthy is the fact that they feature music in their shows and display music credits on their websites.
It’s the longest list so far among the collection of link roundups here at Serve The Song. Dig in…
