To help artists attract more people to their events,  Spotify is now introducing a virtual tour feature for musicians to list their online performances. We’ve seen a glimpse of this feature through a leak by Jane Manchun Wong, but now the company is launching it for real.

Spotify will also send you a selection of personalized events through email. [Read: Are EVs too expensive? Here are 5 common myths, debunked] The company has partnered with the concert discovery platform Songkick and ticketing platform Ticketmaster to integrate all these events. Artists can list any of their online gigs regardless of the platform being Twitch, Instagram Live, YouTube Live, or a hosted website. If you’re an artist, you won’t be able to directly list your events on Spotify. You’ll have to work with Songkick or Ticketmaster to get your events listed on the streaming platform. A lot of platforms have introduced new features to help musicians through this pandemic. In April, Facebook allowed artists to charge for concerts on its platforms. Musicians are also using the membership platform Patreon to fund their alum production or gigs. The feature will be rolling out starting today. You can learn more about the announcement here.
