Submit Your Music
We’re always looking for artists and records worth spending time with.
Dope Patina exists to discover and share music that sticks. If you’ve got a new single, EP, album, or project that fits our editorial focus, we’d love to hear it.
While we primarily cover Americana, folk, bluegrass, jamgrass, and adjacent roots music, we’re always open to artists who blur the lines.
What to send
- Streaming link (Spotify, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, etc.)
- Press photo
- Short bio
- Release date (if applicable)
- Anything you’d like us to know about the project
What We’re Listening For
We’re less interested in genre labels than we are in intention.
Great songwriting. Honest performances. Interesting arrangements. Records that sound like someone cared while making them.
Surprise us.
What happens next
Every submission gets a listen. We can’t promise coverage for every release, but we do read every submission and will reach out if it’s a good fit for Dope Patina.
