‘Bandcamp Fridays’ 2023 by Co-founder Ethan Diamond

Bandcamp believes that music is an indispensable part of culture, and for that culture to thrive, artists must be compensated fairly and transparently for their work.

Fans have paid artists $1.11 billion using Bandcamp, and $185 million in the last year. Bandcamp only makes money when artists make money.

On the first Friday of the month since March of 2020, Bandcamp has waived their revenue share to help support artists on Bandcamp. The next Bandcamp Friday is May 5th!

The Fridays will continue on August 4th, September 1st, October 6th, November 3rd, and December 1st. As always, isitbandcampfriday.com has the details.

On Bandcamp Fridays, an average of 93% of your money reaches the artist/label (after payment processor fees).

See “The Best Hip-Hop on Bandcamp: April 2023” here.

When you make a purchase on any other day (as millions of you have, with more than $1 billion now paid directly to artists), an average of 82% reaches the artist/label.

Every day is a good day to support artists on Bandcamp!
