Bandcamp extends its waive-Friday through the end of the year

Bandcamp is extending its Bandcamp Friday program, in which it is waiving its revenues the first Friday of every month, through the end of the year, Rolling Stone reports. The series started as a one-off at the end of March to help get extra money to artists after the COVID-19 pandemic brought touring to a halt and forced independent record stores to close. It continued through the summer. The next five will take place August 7th, September 4th, October 2nd, November 6th and December 4th.
