Can't play certain artist

liselorense — Sat, 07 Oct 2017 19:40:55 GMT

Recently spotify on my phone stopped playing songs from certain artists. I have tried reinstalling spotify which did nothing, I tried removing them from downloads and downloading them again which didn't help either.

Artist include: Ed Sheeran, Armin van Buuren, Katy Perry, Harwell, naughty boy

I have the exact same problem as all of you. Undertook all decribed steps, but, like you, no result... Hoping for a fix very soon!

Me too. The same artists listed dont play. The songs play on iphone app, but not on spotify desktop. Problem started after update. Probably only free users like me have issue?

Ed Sheeran

Katy Perry

Armin Van Buren

The Script

Rita Ora

I have exactly the same problem with Grizzly Bear and some other artists. It works on the computer, but not on the phone. When I tap their songs nothing happens. It's super annoying!

Same mine is Nirvana, Slipknot, Metallica, Rev Theory, Hopsin, Ozzy, ADTR, and quite a few more I'm sure. Honestly Spotify should discount the people affected to a student plan for this next month a lot of the bands I listed are 90% of my playlist

I see that this issue has been reported in the bugs section so I recommend you all add details of your spotify version and music which won't play over there. With enough posts, Spotify should react quickly.
