Words by Harrison Kefford.

Well, Spotify may have just one upped every other player in this music streaming services battle, with news Ticketmaster has come on board to form a brand new cutting-edge partnership which will see users of Spotify being able to purchase tickets through the popular streaming service.

If you are familiar with Spotify, you will already know that upon listening to a song through an artist’s page you can see when they will be performing in a city close by. This partnership is all thanks to Songkick. Now if we haven’t lost you, this new partnership with Ticketmaster will provide much needed links to further information (i.e Concert listings, ticket information) through personalised emails sent straight to your inbox.

Ramping up the notion that Spotify is well a truly a music streaming titan, the popular music streaming service assures that this new partnership with Ticketmaster will only be a positive and that it’s yet another move in helping them to understand user trends and to help refine listening recommendations.
