is there a way to select an artist and just hear his songs?

Is there a way to limit a playlist (or station) to just one artist? Thanks.
@mschannon I moved your post to this thread to keep the community tidy.
To limit a station to only playing the artist it was created from, you can utilize the Artist Only Pandora Mode.
Check out the accepted solution to this thread for more information on Pandora Modes.
Hope this helps!

I upgraded to premium so that I could use the artist only mode. Now I read that there's no way to prevent other artists from being played on a station. Seriously? Then why is there an artist only mode? And why are you requiring an upgrade to use a mode that doesn't do anything?
@jfoiles Nice to see you around the Community.
Artist Only mode does exactly what it implies: plays only songs by the artist you used to seed your station (unless you've added variety to your station, in which case it will play tracks from those artists as well). This mode will only be available on some stations.
To clarify, are you having issues with one of your stations playing multiple artists when setting it to Artist Only Mode?
If so, what is the name of that station?
Let me know.

Recent examples have been Dan Baird, Gojogo, and Omar Sosa.
@jfoiles Can you please send me a screenshot of different artists playing on Artist Only Mode when you are listening to one of those stations?
Thanks for working with me on this. 🤝

You must have intimidated the stations into submission, suddenly everything is working as it should. I don't know what you did but it worked. Thanks!
@jfoiles Glad to hear things are back up and running again.
If this continues to be an issue down the line, please make sure to reach back out to us and let us know.
Thanks for listening!

I spoke too soon. If I play a station alone the artist only mode works, but when it’s shuffled it plays multiple artists. I've got some screen shots but the system isn't letting me upload them.
Thanks for following up and clarifying that with me, @jfoiles.
Unfortunately, there isn't currently a way to utilize Pandora Modes while shuffling your stations.
It will only work when listening to one station at a time.
I recommend upvoting this existing feature request with a ❤️if you'd like to see this option available: Modes in Shuffle customization
Hope this helps!

Does not work.....I want to listen to one artist only!
@ShaNiqua I moved your post over to this existing thread: Only listen to 1 artists' songs

Can I customize a station by artist? I assumed I could. Like Jango.
@DebbieJay good Sunday morning, I believe you can, when you click on the artist station it shows a search bar for you to add songs or other artists. Just add the songs in that search bar that you want to be added for that artist station. Have a great Sunday, take care, and stay safe.
