Bandcamp has responded to the devastating losses from the California Wildfire with a fundraiser. 100% of all proceeds from BC sales this Friday, February 7th, 2025 will go to MusiCares, with help from partners such as A2IM, Harman, Lagunitas, Roland, Shure, Victrola, and WIN. If you want to help support the event and raise awareness with your band, or just as fan, there is a tool kit below. Bandcamp also announced the return of Bandcamp Fridays for 2025, commencing on March, 7th 2025. All dates are below.
Like all of you, we have been watching in horror at the devastation wrought by the wildfires in California, with thousands of people—including many in our community of labels and artists—losing their homes and finding their livelihoods jeopardized.
That’s why on Friday, February 7th, from midnight to midnight PST, 100% of Bandcamp’s proceeds will be donated to MusiCares to support those affected by the recent Southern California wildfires. MusiCares helps the humans behind music because music gives so much to the world. Offering preventive, emergency, and recovery programs, MusiCares is a safety net supporting the health and welfare of the music community. We hope you’ll join both us and our partners in this effort—A2IM, Harman, Lagunitas, Roland, Shure, Victrola, and WIN—in spreading the word to your fans to help us raise as much as possible for impacted communities.
We’ve created some helpful social media assets to help you do that. You can grab those here.
In addition, we’re officially announcing that Bandcamp Fridays will continue in 2025 on the following dates:
- March 7th
- May 2nd
- August 1st
- September 5th
- October 3rd
- December 5th
Thanks for your continued support of independent music and the people who make it.
