Yes, Spotify is down at the time of writing for many users across the globe. The streaming service is one of the most widely used platforms for streaming music, and it seems as though that there is a major issue preventing many from listening to their favourite songs.

According to many, they’re encountering an error displaying the following message:

“Artist not found. Please try another one.”

At the moment, it seems as though there’s no solution to the error.

Many users have taken to Twitter to report on the service outage.

Some have suggested that they’re going to have to seek out alternative streaming services to finish off the remainder of their gym sessions, with YouTube Music being the primary option.

It seems as though this could be an issue affecting those in specific parts of the world, as users in the UK and US are particularly being affected.

Many are also suggesting that it’s predominantly the mobile app which is malfunctioning, alongside the web browser, though those using the desktop app are just fine.
