Spotify's RADAR program spotlights rising talent from around the world, and in Spain, it's been making waves since 2020. Five years in, RADAR Spain has supported more than 40 up-and-coming artists, including breakout stars like Quevedo, SAIKO, Marta Santos, and Judeline.
The results speak for themselves: One year after joining, RADAR Spain artists see their songs' average global streams grow by nearly 70%, while their average listeners increase by more than 90%. In total, RADAR Spain artists have been added to playlists on Spotify more than 10,700 times, and nearly 300,000 listeners have discovered them for the first time through our RADAR Spain playlist.
Now, as we celebrate this milestone, we're thrilled to introduce the next generation of artists poised to redefine Spain's music scene: Julieta, Barry B, Vera GRV, c ro, and LUSILLON. These five emerging talents were unveiled at a special event at Madrid's Teatro Eslava, complete with live performances that marked RADAR Spain's first-ever local concert.
As part of the program, all will receive on- and off-platform support, including special editorial placement, exclusive content opportunities, and personalized marketing plans, to help them connect with new fans.
We're proud to celebrate the fifth anniversary of RADAR Spain and its impact on local talent and the next generation of young artists, said Melanie Parejo, Head of Music for Southern and Eastern Europe at Spotify. Since launch, we've supported emerging talent and helped grow their careers-but our commitment extends far beyond the program. We continue to support them throughout their journeys, strengthening their connection with fans and new audiences. Seeing early RADAR Spain artists now topping the charts is the best proof of success. This initiative also benefits listeners by bringing them closer to artists who may become their future favorites.
Ready to meet this year's lineup? Here's the scoop on the RADAR Spain class of 2025.
Julieta Hailing from Catalonia, Julieta has earned the nickname the Catalan dream for her blend of electronic, pop, and urban sounds. Her lyrics are resonating with a new generation of listeners, making her one of the most promising voices in Spanish pop.
Barry B From Aranda de Duero, Barry B blends modern sounds with traditional influences. With more than a decade of experience-including performing in local bands, writing for artists like Amaia, and collaborating with acts like Carolina Durante-this is a seasoned artist ready to break through.
Vera GRV Almer a's Vera GRV is making a name for herself with her distinctive style and lyrical finesse. Keep an ear out for her unique sound, which is making waves in the Spanish urban music scene.

LUSILLON Madrid-based LUSILLON stands out with her soft rhythms, catchy choruses, and emotionally charged lyrics. A winner of the Mad Cool Talent contest in 2023, LUSILLON is poised for a major breakthrough.
