Your support means everything.
We all love streaming, myself included – it’s great for listeners.
But it’s not great for musicians… especially independent artists:
You’d have to stream my new single every day for a year for me to get $1.
That’s not a typo. Spotify is ruthless and massively underpays artists.
In 2024, Spotify stopped paying “small time” musicians at all.
The best way to sustain indie music is with direct support.

Can we make it a habit to support people whose work we like?
Can we INVEST in artists directly rather than making billionaires richer?
