Today, April 1st, 2022 is the latest edition of Bandcamp Friday! It is live from 12 midnight PST to 11:59 PM today. They will continue to hold events on the first Friday of the month for at least the next few months. Bandcamp forgoes it’s usual cut of every sale and donates that back to the band. Please support underground artists ,indie labels, and merch sellers today, and every day! Bandcamp was just sold to Epic Games, but claims they will still have Bandcamp Fridays in the future and the plaform will not change, but improve and grow!
If you’ve started to feel guilty about buying music on any day other than Bandcamp Friday, here’s something to keep in mind: on Bandcamp Fridays, an average of 93% of your money reaches the artist/label (after payment processor fees). When you make a purchase on any other day of the month (as 2.5 million of you have since March, buying an additional $190 million worth of music and merch) an average of 82% reaches the artist/label. Every day is a good day to directly support artists on Bandcamp!
