AUTH NONECORS ✗AGENT ✓HTTPS ✓COMMERCIAL ?

Songsterr's search endpoint returns JSON listings of songs matching a text pattern, each with a song id, artist, title and the available instrument tracks. No key is required for the search call. Good for looking up whether tabs exist for a given artist before deep-linking into the player.
