We’re often asked about the unique music that wafts through our bakery-cafes along with the aroma of fresh bread and coffee.

“We’re not the latest radio station,” explains Jay Jung, vice president of design creative for Panera Bread. “Our music isn’t synthesized or overly engineered. You’ll hear acoustic guitar, real piano, some folk-forward, and songs you’re familiar with, but by different artists. Because we bake fresh dough every morning by hand, we're artisans, and this is artisan music.”

Since we don’t sell CDs, our friends at DMX Music put together an exclusive 20-track playlist of some of our most popular selections. Download these songs from your favorite music site and enjoy our sound wherever you go.
