With so many new songs to stream, and new artists to discover, standing out in today’s fast-evolving musical landscape can be tricky. That’s where Spotify for Artists comes in.
We partnered with the brand to showcase its latest feature, Canvas—which gives artists a new and unique way to engage their listeners and stand out among the crowd.

The brand
Spotify for Artists is a service that helps artists and their teams succeed with their work. And with its latest feature, Canvas, artists can add custom looping visuals to any of their tracks—giving fans a new, more intimate way to experience their music.
With the new feature nailed, Spotify needed to reach out to its pool of creators and artists, encouraging them to engage with the new tool. So the streaming giant decided to go where millions of artists go to share and upload their tracks every month: WeTransfer.
