I keep trying to add Maya Isac to a station and it keeps saying ' we're experiencing unexpected technical difficulties' I can't add any artist.
Well, it seems pandora just doesn't like that artist because I cannot add her as a starting station either. Maya Isac is the artist in question.
mod edit: changed title for clarity

I see the same error when trying to add anything to a station created from "Nocturnal Waltz" by Johannes Bornlöf, or to create a new station from artist Lucas King.
Hey, @Lochlyn. 👋
Thanks for reporting this.
I was able to add Lucas King Radio to your Pandora account. Is this the correct station you're referring to?
You can view it here: Lucas King Radio

Regarding the "Noctural Waltz" track - what is the station name? I was unable to find this station on your account under Noctural Waltz Radio.
Let me know. 🎧

Hi! Hello there Alyssa. Same issue happening to my artist page. Artist name: Pepito Montes, can’t start station or add the artist to any other station. Says unavailable but is available on demand after a commercial. Please help
Hey there, @misterconjunto. 👋
Thanks for letting me know about this. I've gone ahead and reported this over to our curation team for you. We appreciate your patience during this process. 🎧
Having this same issue with
"Shadow Cliq"
"Hvdes & Shadow Cliq"
The Song "Catacomb" by "Hvdes & Shadow Cliq"
Have had this issue with a number of other artist as well.
@Polgara I've passed your feedback along to our curation team so they can further investigate.
In the meantime, if there are any other artists out there that you are unable to create a station for due to the button being greyed out, feel free to let us know and we can pass those along as well.
Thanks for reporting!
Similar situation above. Unable to add artist "androp".
Message received: "this artist isn't currently available to start a station."
When trying to play any of their songs, just brings me back to artists' page.
Thank you for reporting this, @K3lusive.
Your feedback has now been passed along to our curation team for further review.
I am having the same issue with the artist "Selphius"
I can't add their songs to a station or start a station with them
@NStorey I've escalated this to our curation team for further review.
Thanks for your patience in the meantime!
This issue is listed as solved, but there is no resolution. I'm having this issue with Samurai Pizza Cats, and I keep checking all these forums and the only resolution to all the "solved" issues is that "the issue has been forwarded to the curation team." Is there an actual fix for this? Or are we just supposed to sit here forever and keep paying you while the only answer you give us is "it's being worked on"?
Edit: I was attempting to add Samurai Pizza Cats to a station on my Galaxy S22 Ultra and kept getting the "We're experiencing technical difficulties" error, however when I logged into Pandora on a computer, the band, and all of the songs I was given the error for, they were added to the station already. They are not listed on mobile as being part of the station, but they are listed as being part of the station on PC. Will they contribute to the station on mobile?
Hi, @Ibchillin42. 👋
Thanks for your message, and for your feedback. Sorry to hear you encountered that error message.
Something to note: You may encounter a portion of songs or albums that are unavailable or labeled "Radio Only" due to our current licensing restrictions.
We are continuously working on increasing the amount of songs which can be played on stations, on-demand, or offline. In the meantime, your feedback would be passed along to the team that handles our music collection so they can look deeper into this. However, the moderators aren't given a timeline or ETA by the team, but you can rest assured all pertinent information shared on community threads is reported to the appropriate party.

Could you share which station you're having trouble with?
Do you have a large amount of seeds on that station?
Let me know. 🎧
I keep getting the error message "sorry we are having unexpected tenical difficulties" when trying to make a station from ghost and pals, their songs, or other similar vocaloid songs and it's frustrating.
Hi there, @Helloimhatter. 👋
Thanks for reporting your experience.
Are there any other artists / songs are you having trouble with?
In the meantime, I can share this feedback with our curation team. 🎧
