Pandora To Host Free Women In Country Show in NYC

Martina McBride will be joined by Cassadee Pope and RaeLynn for a free Pandora Presents recording for listeners in New York City on Oct. 14.

The intimate evening of Big Machine Label Group artists will celebrate females in country music and will benefit the T.J. Martell Foundation and breast cancer research. The Altman Building concert will be open to Pandora listeners (21+) who RSVP in advance.

“The scale of Pandora is the perfect way to amplify the power of women in country music in a year where some have questioned it,” says Pandora’s Lars Murray. “Listeners and fans have spoken; these women have over 370 million spins on Pandora.”

Pandora has the unique ability to determine which artists will resonate best with local listeners by analyzing musical preferences, stations created, and thumbed-up songs. Invitations to events are then extended to Pandora listeners who have demonstrated an affinity for the identified artists.

Past Pandora-curated events include Jack White, Fall out Boy, Imagine Dragons, Miguel, Wyclef Jean, Earlsweatshirt, Steve Aoki, Jason Derulo, Chromeo, Celine Dion, Trey Songz, Diplo, Charli XCX, Neko Case, Bleachers, Tegan & Sara, Aloe Blacc, Cold War Kids, Estelle, J Balvin, The Hold Stead, Iggy Azalea and more.
