Play songs by an artist with Siri

Quick answer

"Play songs by [artist]" and Siri starts a mix of their music. Say "play the latest album by [artist]" for something specific, or "play [artist] radio" for a station built around their style. A quick way to fill the room with one performer's catalog.

Say this

“Play songs by Fleetwood Mac”

If Siri doesn't get it

If Siri can't find the artist, say the name clearly and in full. Deeper catalogs need an Apple Music subscription rather than just your library.
