Over 120 albums of original material now available on BandCamp!
I'm excited to have a new home studio, rebuilt after a forest fire last year burned down the old one, and to have all my gear finally out of storage. I'm writing new songs and now have recorded over 100 albums of original material. What can I say, I love writing and recordings songs, and it just happened! So check me out on Bandcamp. For best results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. Enjoy!
Why Bandcamp?
In August 2020 while Laurel and I were evacuated due to a forest fire, a few fans bought my entire 100+ album digital discography which paid for our groceries for a whole month, including replacing those we'd had to leave behind. It would take hundreds of millions of plays on the popular streaming services for me to have a similar amount of "play-dough." Listeners pay for such services monthly, but only a few cents here and there make it into the hands and bellies of the artists actually creating the music.
The gratitude I feel towards Bandcamp.com is sent out to the cosmos daily. They offer a platform where you're free to upload as many albums as you like and they only take a small percentage of your sales in return. If you look up a photo of their staff, it's easy to see that these are good folks. Most other platforms have done away with downloads entirely and offer musicians a ridiculously low rate per play, where it would take well over 200 plays to make a single dollar. Too many musicians are dying of exposure these days, while non-musician gate-keepers get rich. It's criminal.
If you appreciate my music and would like to help support me, besides the hard copies I tote to my live shows, I encourage you to support me on Bandcamp.com
