You guys, please support small artists. Don't just listen to them on Spotify. I hate to say this and I'm 100% not wanting to come off as rude when I say this, but it's not enough.
You need to be buying merch and if you can't afford it/already have it then SHARE. promote the bands, if you can get even one person to listen to them then do it.
I won't say which one but I was talking to a member of one of the bands I try to promote on this blog this morning. He was talking about how he feels burnt out with trying to release a song at least once a month or doing a stupid meme video to try and stay in the public eye. And how Spotify fucking sucks for small artists. Please go see small bands, their shows are cheap or free anyway. Buy merch, not just at shows but from their websites too if you can't make the shows. Buy PHYSICAL records.
I can't stress enough how many artists give up or feel like giving up because this black hole we call social media eats them alive. Please don't stop listening to them just because they aren't posting daily. They're people too.
