On May 1, 2020, we did it again and fans paid artists $7.1 million – amazing!
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. On March 20, 2020, we waived our revenue share in order to help artists and labels impacted by the pandemic. With such a major revenue stream drying up almost entirely, finding ways to continue supporting artists in the coming months is an urgent priority for anyone who cares about music and the artists who create it.
The Covid-19 pandemic continues to impact all of us, and artists have been hit especially hard as tours and shows are canceled for the foreseeable future.
