What's big, green and rolls on 6 wheels blasting music? Spotify on Tour! Our Big Green Bus is hitting the road to bring music to a city near you. Proudly sponsored by BACARDI, Spotify On Tour will take you behind-the-scenes at festivals, offer exclusive secret shows, artist sessions and more!

With a bold green exterior and a full tank of gas, our ginormous boombox-on-wheels hit the road last week. First stop - a star-studded kick-off party in East LA with Grouplove, JJAMZ, YACHT and The Henry Clay People. We then rolled up to San Francisco, meeting artists along the way including KENDRICK LAMAR, ScHoolboy Q, J. Rocc and Ab-soul. While in SF, fans were treated to a secret Spotify Session in the Portero Del Sol park with City and Colour and an epic party at the Haus of Hipstamatic with Geographer.

Get a sneak peek of our first 381 miles here!

Be sure not to miss the first Spotify Session from the tour featuring JJAMZ here and head to the Spotify on Tour Facebook app for more exclusives from the road.
