Spotify Sessions Launch in Latin America, Handing Creative Control to Artist-Led Trios

The world is listening to Latin America. The region's artists are consistently setting the tempo for global music culture, and to celebrate this creative influence, we're launching Spotify Sessions, a new video project that puts artistry first.

Spotify Sessions are crafted by a unique trio: a lead artist, a music director, and a visual director working as a single creative unit. The result is a five-track video EP that reimagines an artist's songs through a distinct visual performance, combining sound and vision in a unique way for fans.

Spotify Sessions are part of Spotify's music video experience, available to Premium subscribers in most countries and regions outside the US. In Brazil and Colombia, music videos are also available to Free listeners.

Creative trios, complete freedom Instead of adapting to a preset format, Spotify Sessions are built on creative freedom. Artists and their handpicked teams shape every aspect of the session, from musical arrangements to visual concepts. Some sessions happen on a stage, others in unexpected spaces, but every performance is designed to be true to the artist's creative world.

This project builds on the momentum of music videos on Spotify, which have already strengthened the connection between artists and fans across Latin America. It's a format designed to celebrate experimentation and reflect the cultural shifts happening across the region.

Experience the first Spotify Sessions The series is now live with two sessions that highlight the diversity of Latin music today:

Crudo Means Raw - Colombia Rapper and producer Crudo Means Raw joins forces with music director Adan Naranjo and visual director George Gallardo.

X-Tra' is a message to those who listen to me: Let's learn to nourish our souls with what's organic and natural, said Crudo about the previously unreleased song he performed. Always choose what's good for your health-both spiritual and physical. I chose X-Tra' because it was the perfect time for it to come to light.

Ana Castela - Brazil Sertanejo singer Ana Castela teams up with music directors Douglas Moda and Lucas Vaz and visual director Edvaldo Raw.

We took five songs and transformed them into other musical genres - which was challenging for me. I'm very happy that, among so many talented artists, I was chosen to represent my genre, sertanejo, said Ana Castela. It's also a chance to unite music in Latin America and reach other countries. It's another way to show Brazilian power.

And this is just the start. In the weeks ahead, look out for confirmed Sessions from more of the region's innovative talents, including:

R Z with music directors COASTCITY and visual director Humainleau (Jonathan Garc a) (Mexico)

KayBlack + Burna Boy with music directors Nave and Fejuca and visual director Scoz (Brazil)

Peces Raros with music director Gustavo Borner and visual director Lautaro Esposito (Argentina)

A platform for the next generation

Spotify Sessions represent our continued investment in video and our direct collaboration with the artists and creatives contributing to the next wave of Latin music.

With video on Spotify, we're giving users the opportunity to discover music in a bigger way, said Mia Nygren, General Manager, Latin America, at Spotify. Spotify Sessions are developed to surprise fans and give the artists behind them a format where they can truly express themselves. Celebrating Latin American music and creativity through this new experience is an honor and an important part of our work to support the next generation of stars coming from this part of the world.
