Spotify Adds Concert Dates To Apps Through Songkick
Spotify users on iPhones and iPods can now access artist concert dates through Songkick, according to Hypebot.com. After updating to the new app, users can now tap on an “On Tour” section that will take them to Songkick for concert listings, info, and ticket information. The upgrade also includes new search features that add playlists and user profiles.
BandsInTown and BandPage have also recently cut deals to expand their tour dates to more music sites and services. Songkick registered 100,000 new users within four months of launching the special Spotify app and has sent millions of personalized concert alerts to users who register through the company.
