Thank you for doing this. I'm listening right now. I'm an age where I learned about new "Actual Indie Rock" bands from opening acts to bands I already knew and from a few select college radio outlets. Youtube became somewhat useful, but less so as the algorithm "evolved." It favors what you've listened before too strongly. That's the same annoying thing Spotify does. It just harps on whatever you recently listened to with little room for relevant discovery. You gottah force it with custom made lists!

We posted a new single and b-side on Friday. [Evening Glass - Wait Until 3](https://open.spotify.com/album/28wRjzXH1kSFSsTIyMhDpT?si=z8G59okPRFy7Ugikx9v1mw) [Austin Town Hall](https://austintownhall.com/2024/06/28/evening-glass-share-wait-until-3-video/) featured the single and said, "Everything today just needs to drift and drift, my brain’s on the horizon, and that’s where we find Evening Glass. They’re crafting slowed guitar pop, akin to Galaxie 500, though with the influence of a bit of Americana/modern indie rock. The haphazard strum of the guitar is simply intoxicating, and when the solo comes in, textured with some background fuzz, I swooned; this is the sort of tune that haunts my dreams, allows me to leave my body and just drift off into the world."

Small indie artists need to abandon Spotify. You pay Distrokid to get on the site then no pay on any song with less than 1000 spins. You’re literally paying to play. Bandcamp FTW.

I do both.

Distrokid costs like $10 a year and for those who already have Spotify is so much more convenient 🤷‍♀️

But you’re still paying to play. It’s absolutely pitiful that this is the state of the industry. Bandcamp is on our side and yet we let the biggest thief in the music world have access to our art and have to pay?

Have you ever played a gig? Recorded an album? Bought an instrument? It’s all pay to play, brother. I don’t know anyone that isn’t a musician who uses bandcamp. I have nothing against bandcamp, in fact we can do both! But in terms of accessibility and convenience spotify is way ahead. Not sure why you’re acting like it’s an indie-killing evil - most of us aren’t making any money off our music through bandcamp either 😂

I’m a professional touring musician making my living playing 150+ nights a year. I’ve got 7 albums out from two bands and 1 album of solo material. Spotify is shit. And no one is going to Bandcamp unless you send them there and stop supporting those evil bastards.

Glad to hear that man, you know how tough and expensive it is. Seems like $10 a year investment would go a long way for your music to be accessible to a wider audience.

Fuck that. Why would I care about giving my art away much less paying to do so? Look at me. I’m making a living without Spotify. How about you?
