Bandcamp Separates Itself from the Pack of Streaming Services By Being All About Community #bandsintown #musicbizweeklypodcast #musicmarketing #musicbiz #musicmarketingtips #hypebot #bandsintown #bandzoogle Episode 644: J. Edward Keyes, the editorial director of https://bandcamp.com/, one of the most artist-friendly platforms in the industry. With over 20 years of experience writing for outlets like Rolling Stone, SPIN, Pitchfork, Entertainment Weekly, and The Village Voice, J. Edward has a deep understanding of the evolving music landscape, particularly how independent artists are sustaining themselves outside the traditional streaming model. Bandcamp has become a vital platform for U.S. musicians, ensuring 80% of sales go directly to artists, far exceeding streaming payouts. Its direct-to-fan model helps fund albums, tours, and careers, while initiatives like Bandcamp Fridays have put millions into artists’ pockets. In an industry dominated by low streaming revenue, Bandcamp offers a sustainable path for independent musicians to thrive.
