Artists not showing up in search

[Plaidygami]

Sometimes, when I type in certain artists' names, they don't show up, and I have to try and find them by using the RELATED ARTISTS feature, which is irritating. I mean, they ARE listed on Spotify, but they don't show up in the search results.

I understand that some of them have no songs available (due to copyright or other reasons), which is why they may not show up in the search, but it's still irritating and I'd like to be able to follow them regardless, instead of having to find them indirectly, which is bothersome.

Please let me find and follow artists in search directly even if they have no songs available. Thank you.
