Is there a way of showing tracks by a given artist in my playlists?

Solved!

Is there a way of showing tracks by a given artist in my playlists?

Is there a way of showing all tracks by a given artist anywhere in my playlists? It seems pretty basic functionality, but neither search nor filter seems to work.  This is for when I know I downloaded a great track by an artist, but can't remember where I put it or what it's called.  Just call me 'goldfish'.

Attempted steps using filter:
1. Create new playlist called 'Australia'
2. Search for 'Baby Animals', and add their track 'Rush You' to the playlist.
3. Go to Library/Playlists, bring up filter bar, type in 'Baby Animals'. No results are returned, although I can see the Australia playlist and if I open it I can see the track.

Hey @MichaelMoore

 

The filter in the playlists view just searches through the playlist titles, not what's inside of the playlist. If you go in a playlist, scroll up, that filter bar will search through artist name, song name, and album name of what's in the playlist.

So just to confirm, there's no way to do this as far as you know?
