When you say "they appear", this is presumably in your Control Point. Which Control Point application are you using? And do you have an Artist.display.multiTag setting in your TagCustom property?

This is what this page of the MinimServer User Guide says about display.multiTag:

"If this setting is disabled (the default value) and there are multiple values for the same audio file tag (such as Artist or Genre), these values are combined and sent to the control point as a single XML tag. The contents of this XML tag can be customized using the displayFormat setting of the tagFormat property (see the Tag formatting section).

If this setting is enabled and there are multiple values for the same audio file tag (such as Artist or Genre), these values are sent to the control point as separate XML tags. This setting is useful for control points that can handle multiple XML tags of the same type, such as the LUMIN app. In this case, the displayFormat setting of the tagFormat property can't be used for this audio tag."

Enabling display.mutiTag may give you what you require. But, as the User Guide makes clear, your Control Point does need to be able to handle multiple Artist tags.
