Google is quietly expanding what Gemini can do. The company has begun rolling out a new music creation feature powered by its latest AI model, Lyria 3, giving users the ability to turn simple ideas into short songs.
The concept is easy to understand. You describe a feeling, a memory, or a style of music — and within seconds, Gemini builds a 30-second track around it, complete with lyrics.
The feature is currently in beta and available to users aged 18 and above. It supports multiple languages, including English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean and Portuguese. For now, the rollout is happening on desktop, with mobile access expected soon. Google AI Plus, Pro and Ultra subscribers are being offered higher usage limits.
Users can create a track by typing a prompt such as a genre, mood or personal story. For example, someone might ask for a song about childhood memories with their mother in an Afrobeat style. Gemini then generates both the music and lyrics to match that idea. The tool also allows users to upload photos or short videos, and it creates a soundtrack that reflects the tone of the visuals.
Beyond the Gemini app, the same technology is being used in YouTube’s Dream Track feature. Creators can generate custom soundtracks for Shorts, offering a new way to add original background music to their content. The rollout has started in the United States and is expected to expand further.
Each 30-second song comes with AI-generated cover art created by Nano Banana. The finished track can be downloaded or shared through a link. Google has clarified that the goal is to offer a creative outlet, not to replace professional musicians or produce full-length commercial songs.
To maintain transparency, every track generated through Gemini includes a digital watermark using Google’s SynthID technology. The company has also extended its verification tools to cover audio, allowing users to check whether a file was created using Google AI.
Google says Lyria 3 is designed for original expression. If a prompt mentions a specific artist, the system treats it as inspiration rather than copying their work. Built-in safeguards compare generated music with existing content, and users can report potential copyright concerns if they arise.
With this update, Gemini is moving beyond text and images and stepping into audio — making music creation more accessible to everyday users.
