How you can support artists you love

Hey Friend,


Yesterday I mentioned that today is Bandcamp Friday, meaning artists receive almost the entire amount you spend on them.


Bandcamp waives their fee and the only fee left is processing fees.


For example, on a normal day if you spend $3 on my music, I get about $2.33.


But today I would get almost the full $3.


The average amount spent on an album is $7.


I price all of my music at minimum $1, and you can pay more if you like.


Since I get about $0.0014 per stream, it would take me 2143 streams to make that $3.


And if you buy just one of my albums at the average of $7, that's a small fast-food hamburger and fries, which keeps my sustained long enough to make it through the gig tonight.


Starving artist, ya know?


It's a huge deal for us artists if you buy our music directly, so please consider buying some of mine today at https://megabyteghost.bandcamp.com.


There's actually a lot of different styles of music there so you have a lot to choose from. There's something for everybody, I think.


Always appreciating your support,

Garrett // megabyteGhost


P.S. The payout comes in about 24 hours which means I can get another small hamburger and fries before tomorrow night's gig if you buy one album at $7 right now: https://megabyteghost.bandcamp.com.
