play_artist - Play Roon Library Artist
play_artist [ ARTIST ] [ EXARTIST ]
Plays the Roon Library artist named ARTIST. If no library artist name matches ARTIST exactly, search for Roon Library artist whose name contains the case-sensitive string ARTIST. If there is a match on the search substring then play_artist will play that artist. If more than one Roon Library artist name matches the search substring then play_artist will return a list of matching artist names and play the first one in the list.
ARTIST : Provide an artist name, in quotes if it contains spaces, or a case-sensitive substring. A Roon library artist name matching the provided artist name or containing the substring will be played if a match is found.
EXARTIST : Provide an artist exclusion string, in quotes if it contains spaces. No Roon library artist names including the provided artist exclusion string will be played
play_artist Young : Will play Roon library artist name "Young" if it exists. If not then it will play the Roon library artist whose name contains the string "Young" if a match is found.
play_artist Young Neil : Will play Roon library artist name "Young" if it exists. If not then it will play the Roon library artist whose name contains the string "Young" but not "Neil" if a match is found.
