Hey @michelg619 and welcome to our Community!

That's not cool. Try relaunching the app. If that doesn't help, turn your phone off for 30 seconds before turning it back on. Any better? 

Also, can you going to Settings > Battery > tap the three-dot icon at the top

> Battery optimisation > tap the drop-down arrow > All apps > Spotify > Don't optimize ?

Let us know how it goes.
