WYOMING — The Wyoming Arts Council and Wyoming Humanities are seeking tracks and podcasts from Wyoming-based musicians and podcasters for the 2025 Summer Road Trip Playlist. 

The application, along with additional information, can be found on the Wyoming Arts Council’s Submittable.com page. The application deadline is April 30 at 11:59 p.m. Podcasts and songs must link directly to Spotify, and each applicant is limited to two submissions in either category. 

According to a press release, the Wyoming Road Trip Playlist is an annual release hosted on Spotify and promoted at high-tourism areas across the state, such as State Parks, Historic Sites and Trails, museums and festivals.

“The Road Trip Playlist highlights the range of talent throughout the state,” Kimberly Mittelstadt of the Wyoming Arts Council says in the release. “Not only is it an opportunity for bands to reach a new audience, but a great way for Wyomingites and visitors to listen to the wide array of music and stories coming from our state.”

In addition to the promotion of the playlist, artists will receive featured looks at their music through Wyoming Arts Council social media channels and podcast promotion through Wyoming Humanities. 

This statewide call is open to independent musicians of all genres and producers of compelling storytelling podcasts. The Wyoming Art Council is partnering with Wyoming Humanities to again add podcast episodes to the playlist.
