Apple Music has introduced a new set list feature on its Apple Music for Artists dashboard. This update allows artists to create Set List playlists, which can be published on both Apple Music and Shazam concert pages, as well as shared on social media platforms.
The new tool will allow artists to enhance their live performance promotions. Musicians can curate a Set List playlist using any track from their Apple Music catalog.
Additionally, artists can utilize their existing static images to generate unique artwork for their playlists. The feature also enables the display of multiple Set Lists tailored to specific events and the option to set a precise publication date for each playlist. This platform promises to transform the way artists engage with their audiences.
An Apple spokesperson said, “This can be a fun way to announce a future tour, reach fans who couldn’t make the live experience, or reconnect with those that were at your show.”
Artists will now have the ability to hide or remove specific setlists, offering greater control over their performances.
Last year, Apple Music introduced a dedicated platform for Set Lists, highlighting notable ongoing tours. This feature allows fans to listen to Set Lists, gain insights into the productions, and explore upcoming shows in their area.
Since its launch, the platform has made over 450 Set Lists from popular artists, including Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Sabrina Carpenter, and Post Malone, accessible.
