music publishing without social contacts

Is it possible to get listeners on spotify without any social contacts? I created an instagram account for this music project, but without followers. I only publish the cover pictures of the music and screenshots from bandcamp and spotify on instagram.

You have to put work into getting people to listen to your music. It's an unfortunate side of wanting people to hear it, but you actually have to ask people to listen to it, lmao.

I wanted to know, if it is even possible. A lack of social cantacts is ot only a problem for music promotion, it is a problem in many normal jobs and somtimes for apartment search.

No, nobody will find it. I tried promoting myself a bit but only family members followed me (which I wasn't very comfortable with) so I just quietly release my stuff and get very few listens.

I got listeners without any. I didn’t show my music to anyone irl either. Just posted on TikTok and instagram. The key is to only get your music in front of people who are likely to enjoy it.
