Pandora today announced the launch of Pandora Premieres, a first-of-its kind station that offers listeners the opportunity to preview upcoming album releases in their entirety before they go on-sale. Pandora Premieres will feature previews from a wide variety of artists, both established and emerging, across multiple genres, up to one week prior to the scheduled U.S. launch date.
Listeners can enjoy these early album releases simply by adding the Pandora Premieres station, which will be updated weekly with new releases. With Pandora Premieres, listeners can choose to hear any track on the featured album, in any order and as many times as they’d like, for the time period the album is available on the station. Listeners are encouraged to tune in regularly because new albums will be featured each week, with some artists also offering additional exclusive content such as video interviews.
The albums debuting today feature artists from the Classic Rock and Folk music genres, including:
● Classic Rock: John Fogerty , “Wrote a Song for Everyone” his ninth solo studio album, Fogerty draws from his personal songbook including hit tracks, “Bad Moon Rising”, “Who’ll Stop the Rain” and “Fortunate Son” in addition to penning two new original songs for the album. Showcasing his blues influences, classic guitar tones and dynamic vocal range, the reinterpretations of classic hits on this album are also created with artists including Brad Paisley , The Foo Fighters, Jennifer Hudson and Miranda Lambert .
● Folk: Laura Marling , “Once I Was an Eagle” This is the fourth album from the 23-year-old English folk singer. After cutting her teeth in the U.K. folk scene, Marling delivers new songs that display her lyrical sensibility and earthy vocals akin to the sound of Joni Mitchell . Organic and sparse acoustic arrangements are portrayed on the albums’ 16 tracks with Marling and her band playing a total of three instruments: guitar, cello and drums.
