Audacy has announced a strategic partnership with Sonos to serve as exclusive U.S. sales and distribution representative for Sonos Radio’s streaming inventory.

Audacy will distribute Sonos’ 100+ stations on its platforms as well as expanding advertising business and monetization including its mix of curated music, mood-driven experiences, and artist channels. The deal marks an expansion of a prior deal that placed Audacy’s broadcast stations on Sonos devices in 2020.

Audacy President of Digital Sales Michael Biemolt said, “Sonos is a pioneer in audio and a natural partner for Audacy as we continually look to expand our reach and leverage our industry-leading sales capabilities. We’re excited to bring the Sonos Radio stations across the Audacy platform alongside our leading radio and audio brands. Sonos Radio has built an exceptional listening environment with a loyal, high-value audience, and by leveraging our scale, technology and sales expertise, we’ll help elevate their streaming business. This partnership is a natural fit and an exciting step forward for both companies.”

Sonos Radio Director of Product Management Jack Rutledge commented, “At Sonos, our focus is on building a system that delivers great listening experiences and grows with you over time. By pairing high-quality, curated listening experiences with Audacy’s scale and sales expertise, we’re strengthening the Sonos ecosystem in ways that deepen engagement, expand lifetime value, and create sustainable opportunities for partners and brands to connect with highly engaged listeners.”
