It& #39;s #BandcampFriday
That means @Bandcamp is waiving fees so artists get 100% of what you pay.
Given the awful situation that NI musicians are in with the blanket ban on music in pubs/hotels/restaurants - ie being banned from working with little or no govt support,
[1]

Please think about buying some music or merch (or both) from a local musician today. Many of them rely on gigging to buy pay for things like rent, groceries, heat & electricity. It& #39;s a terrible time to be a freelance musician in NI [2]

Here are some worthy suggestions for supporting:

I& #39;ve left tons of amazing musicians out of this list - it was not intended to be exhaustive, just a shout out to some of my mates.
The important thing is this:
IF YOU& #39;RE A MUSIC FAN THEN BUY MUSIC FROM YOU FAVOURITE LOCAL MUSICIANS TODAY!*
