The Jackets (a band from Switzerland) is going on a USA / Mexico tour. Notice Mexico there.
It’s an example of checking your streaming stats, finding your audience and choosing the countries/cities for the tour. For sure they used more info, but still.

I think you kinda under-appreciate chartmetric.com

Not only it gives you detailed stats on you, it also gives stats on other bands, cities, genres etc.

How you can use it as a band?
You can find bands that are similar with you in location, genre and listeners/followers and tour together.
Or using the stats on that band to find out which cities you can target, cos you know that people there like such music genre.
Or know which social media channels work with your genre.

It's dope shit.
Based on these numbers I would say that YouTube is the most important platform for finding new fans.

...As I'm adding more songs to my Spotify playlist I notice that it's getting harder and harder to discover new stuff. The main reason is that on YouTube I can see if I listened to the artist or not (I don't know if it's the default function or just my extensions). Or because my visual memory is better than my audio memory, most of the time I know the bands by their album artwork. On spotify either I need to add some markers or write it down or do smth to see if I listened to the artist already...
