Bandcamp Announce Further Support For Musicians

Bandcamp have announced that they will be waiving their fees this Friday, the 1st May 2020. Ethan Diamond, CEO and Bandcamp co-founder released this statement: “On March 20, 2020, we waived our revenue share in order to help artists and labels impacted by the pandemic. The Bandcamp community showed up in a massive way, spending $4.3 million on music and merch, 15x the amount of a normal Friday, helping artists cover rents, mortgages, groceries, medications, and so much more. It was truly inspiring. But the pandemic and its impact on the music community aren’t over, so on May 1, June 5, and July 3 (the first Friday of each month), we’re waiving our revenue share for all sales on Bandcamp, from midnight to midnight PDT on each day.”
