Disappearing Artist

Wondering why one day there are several albums from an artist, then suddenly they are gone.

Hello there and welcome to the community,

Availability of music on Spotify is up to the artists (or representatives) and / or their labels. Music missing can be a decision of one of them.

Music missing can also be related to a licensing problem. Licensing rules are not the same from a country to another. That can lead to have albums available in some countries and not in some others. Usually when a licensing problem is solved the music can be added or come back if it has been removed.

Spotify wants all the music in the world to stream and works hard daily to try to convince artists and labels to let all their catalog in streaming.

My songs from the same artist that I downloaded have all dissapeared from my play list the artist are called "Why Don't We" I was wondering if they removed themselves from spotify or something?

I agree with you one hundred percent. This is happening way too often now. The artists are disappearing and the songs of artists disappearing (the artists that Are not disappeared) . Today I found out that one of my favorite singers who has many albums, has only 3 songs on Spotify. The rest are just gone. I contacted the Spotify on Twitter and the just give you excuses that insults your intelligence. THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG WITH SPOTIFY.
