Shipman ’27 on Popular Site Setlist.fm: New York Times

Comedic Arts student Ella Shipman ’27 is among the supporters of live music’s Setlist.fm, a website that concert-goers use to share playlists of concerts around the world.

Created in 2008 by Molindo and now owned by Live Nation Entertainment, the popularity of the site grew by the millions in terms of users and set lists in the past 13 years.

She’s a “huge fan of Taylor Swift and Setlist.fm” who has used the site to preview upcoming shows. “I want to know what songs I’m going to be screaming at the top of my lungs,” she said. Shipman said that she watched the updates on Setlist.fm for surprise songs from Swift’s Eras Tour, along with live video streams on apps like TikTok and Instagram.
