In Brazil, Google is also on-ramping musicians. So expect expansion to the U.S. to follow.

"This enhanced format allows searchers to hear directly from the primary source — you — and complements existing results from across the web," said Google in the announcement. " We’re continuing to experiment with other categories and regions, so stay tuned."
