This is yesterday's Spotle, #1612 from Sun, Sep 27, kept for a day. The hints come first, then the answer, so you can check the artist you guessed. New to it? Our Spotle game page covers where to play, the modes and our tips.
Spotle hides one artist from Spotify's most-streamed and gives you ten tries. Each guess is compared with the answer on six points: debut year, group size, monthly listener rank, gender, genre and nationality.
Open with a well-known artist from a big market, since a guess close on debut year and listener rank narrows the field fastest. After that, change one thing at a time: keep the genre and move the decade, or keep the decade and cross a border.
