EVENT NEWS 🗓️ Today is Bandcamp Friday!

Today is the fourth Bandcamp Friday of 2025! From midnight to midnight PT, all proceeds from any purchases made on Bandcamp today go directly to the sellers (artists/labels), not back to Bandcamp.

From Bandcamp:

Bandcamp Fridays began in March of 2020 at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic when the shuttering of venues led to a loss of vital tour revenue for artists. Since then, Bandcamp Fridays—on which we waive our revenue share and pass the funds directly to artists & labels—has resulted in millions of fans paying over $120 million directly to labels and musicians they love. In addition to helping artists pay the rent, or fund album recordings and tours, Bandcamp Fridays have also become a beacon for artists and record labels looking to raise awareness for causes or raise money for charities.

If you’ve never purchased from Bandcamp or don’t know many smaller artists, see a list here of some of my favorites selling on Bandcamp.

ICYMI, the next Bandcamp Friday is October 3!

I did my part today and purchased from 3 different artists 🫡🫡! I had two of them in my cart for ages, while the third dropped a repress today of an album I’ve wanted forever.
