Greetings,
As most of you know, in addition to all the more pervasive difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, it has also had a devastating impact to those who make music in any professional capacity (especially those who rely on income from live performance and touring). As a gesture of support to the musical community, Bandcamp is offering to waive their share of revenue for purchases made on Friday, March 20th (midnight-to-midnight PDT). For details, please see:
https://daily.bandcamp.com/features/...-19-fundraiser
In addition to sharing this announcement, I'm hoping we can all leverage this thread to share our own Bandcamp pages--both as artists and customers--and any specific recommendations as well. By example, I'll start with my own:
- Advent Bandcamp page: https://advent-prog.bandcamp.com/
- *My customer page: https://bandcamp.com/adventdude
*Please note that Bandcamp customer pages include tabs for:
1. Our collection (of albums/EPs/singles previously purchased)
2. Our wishlist
3. Other Bandcamp users that are following us
4. Other Bandcamp users that we are following
With the above in mind, I hope that many of you will consider sharing your own links and also start checking out music that you may want to consider purchasing--ideally on Friday--to help support these artists with maximum impact. Also, please keep in mind that you can stream all music on Bandcamp for free (at least a few times) before buying it.
Thanks a lot, take care, and wishing you all the best during this difficult time,
Alan
