Four Must-Use Spotify Features That Bring You Closer to Your Favorite Artists

We know that when fans fall in love with an artist, they can’t get enough. So when you want to connect with your favorites on a deeper level, Spotify is your go-to destination. Fans and artists interact in many different ways, especially when they’re crossing languages, borders, and cultures. Whether you’re looking to show your support IRL or hear directly from your favorite artists, here are some ways you can strengthen your relationships with the artists you love on Spotify: Listening Parties, Countdown Pages, the Live Events feed, and Clips from your artists. 

Listening Parties

Listening Parties are the live audio experience where you’ll join your favorite artists and other top fans to celebrate their new music releases. In the party you can hear behind-the-scenes artist stories, chat in real time with other fans, and listen to the music you love with the artist who made it.

This year, we’ve hosted listening parties with artists including Peso Pluma, Bleachers, Gracie Abrams, and SEVENTEEN, and there are more to come.

Listening Parties are available to Premium subscribers in the U.S., ID, MX, and CA.

Countdown Pages

Countdown Pages are the place to be when you’re eagerly waiting for your favorite artists to release new music. With Countdown Pages, fans can presave an artist’s music, preview the tracklist, watch Clips, and get their hands on must-have merch via the artist profile, Now Playing view, Search, and Home.

After you presave an album, you’ll receive a push notification on release day so that you know it’s been added to Your Library. No more missing new music!

Countdown Pages are available to Free and Premium subscribers in all Spotify markets.

Live Events feed

Our Live Events feed makes concert discovery seamless, tailored, and fun, so you never miss a show when artists you love are in town. Not only can you find concert listings based on your location and top artists, but you can also browse upcoming concerts in other cities and countries—all personalized to your taste.

Live Events Feed is available to Free and Premium subscribers in all Spotify markets.

Clips from artists

Watching Clips from artists you care about is the best way to dive deeper into their worlds. These short vertical videos let you discover unreleased tracks, hear the story behind a new song, view live performances, and so much more. All Clips are tagged to tracks so that you can easily follow, save, and stream music right from the video. You can watch Clips on Home, the Now Playing view, Countdown Pages, release pages, and more, making it easier for you to find them and create an even deeper connection with artists. 

Artists’ Clips are available to Free and Premium subscribers in 78 markets.
