Bandcamp - Essential Insider Knowledge
Conference
Bandcamp - Essential Insider Knowledge
Speakers: Aly Gillani (European Artist and Label Representative, Bandcamp), Deniz Everling (Artist & Label Ambassador, Bandcamp)
As a true bastion for independence in the modern music scene, Bandcamp continues to operate with its artist-first approach, allowing musicians and labels to directly connect with fans while maintaining control over their music rights. This Insider Knowledge session will delve into how Bandcamp's model—where artists earn an unmatched percentage of revenue—has become essential for independent artists and labels. We'll explore how Bandcamp supports not just music sales, but also merchandise, and live events, offering a comprehensive toolkit for artists looking to sustain and grow their careers, and valuable insights into maximizing revenue and engagement. This discussion is particularly relevant in today’s landscape, where direct fan engagement and diversified revenue streams are crucial for success.
