Recently, Pandora launched Listen In, a new series of exclusive playlists that connect artists with listeners through music.

Currently they have playlists featuring music hand-curated by 5 Seconds of Summer, All Time Low, A$AP Ferg, Broken Social Scene, Cage The Elephant, Carly Pearce, DaniLeigh, Fitz and the Tantrums, Flora Cash, Flume, Godsmack, H.E.R., Jeezy, Kiana Lede, LeAnn Rimes, Madison Beer, Marshmello, Meghan Trainor, Nicole Atkins, Prince Royce, Rod Wave, Tate McRae, The Chainsmokers and Tommy Vext of Bad Wolves.

They will be updating the artists weekly as many more have been eager to participate.
