FiF: 100% Support – Support These Bands That Are Supporting Others
On June 5th, Bandcamp will once again waive their percentage of proceeds, so that 100% of the money goes directly to the artists. We’ll be spending the week highlighting some releases that you might want to throw money at to help the creators through these shittiest of times.
Today, Bandcamp is once again waiving their fees so that all the money from purchases goes directly to the bands. Over the past few months, Bandcamp day has been widely used to help support bands who have been adversely effected by the global pandemic. With the current *points to everything in all directions and then putting my face in my hands* many bands and labels have vowed to donate any money they make on Bandcamp Day to various legal funds and charities. Here is just a small list of these groups and the charities that they are donating their proceeds. Bandcamp has put together their own list. Pitchfork and Alternative Control too. As if that wasn’t enough, there is also a massive list of black producers, artists, and labels that you can directly support .If you can, please consider all of these in your purchases and if you have the means, donate directly to the charities as well.
