Which music streaming service's logo is a green circle with three curved lines? Spotify.
The symbol is Spotify's familiar “sound waves” emblem, usually shown as three curved black or white lines inside a green circle, depending on the background. The design visually suggests audio transmission and helps the service remain recognizable even when the wordmark is absent.
Spotify was founded in Sweden in 2006 by Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzon, then launched publicly in 2008. Its streaming model combined an advertising-supported free tier with paid subscriptions, helping it expand internationally while licensing music from record companies and publishers.
A common mix-up is confusing Spotify's logo with podcast or audio brands that also use radio-wave imagery. The green circle is the key clue: Tidal is associated with a black-and-white wave pattern, Pandora with a stylized “P,” and Apple Music with a musical note inside a circle. Spotify's color and three-line mark together are distinctive.
