Beabadoobee, Jorja Smith and Nemzzz are set to headline "Hometown", a new three-part live series from Spotify that takes each artist back to the city where their musical career began. The initiative gives U.K. talent a chance to perform intimate shows for their most dedicated fans while also supporting local community causes, continuing Spotify's push to spotlight homegrown artists through exclusive live experiences.

The series launches on 6 September with Jorja Smith performing in Walsall, near Birmingham, followed by Nemzzz in Manchester on 12 September and Beabadoobee closing the run in London on 17 September, with venues still to be confirmed. Top listeners of each artist will be invited to attend, and the shows will be turned into exclusive concert films, while Spotify partners with each act on community initiatives such as donations to youth organisations, including Beabadoobee's support for west London charity The Avenues. The dates coincide with new releases from all three artists: Smith's album What Are The Odds arrives 21 August, Nemzzz's Locked In drops 4 September, and Beabadoobee's Pylon follows on 18 September.
