Hi @yardmusic, welcome to the Sonos Community!

An issue that was previously resolved regarding searching for artists using Spotify in the Sonos app recently returned. We’re currently investigating with Spotify on the cause, but we do not have an ETA on when this will be resolved.

Potential workarounds for this include; using New Search instead of Classic Search if you’re on S2, using Spotify Connect to stream directly to your Sonos system, or even putting your search terms in quotations as a workaround some users have found, e.g. searching for “Red Hot Chili Peppers”.

I hope this information helps!
