Bandcamp is a platform for artistic expression, and all manner of variance in experience and identity, including gender and sexuality, is welcome here. We support our LGBT+ users and staff, and we stand against any person or group that would see them further marginalized. This includes the current U.S. administration, and its recent capricious declaration that transgender troops will no longer be able to serve in the military. That this announcement was motivated in part to help fund the border wall exposes it as part of the administration’s cynical, discriminatory agenda.
In response, we will be donating 100% of our share of every sale today, August 4th (from midnight to midnight Pacific Time) to the Transgender Law Center, a nonprofit organization that works tirelessly to change law, policy, and culture for the more equitable. TLC does critical policy advocacy and litigation on multiple fronts, fights for healthcare for trans veterans, defends incarcerated trans people from abuse in prisons and detention centers, supports trans immigrants, and helps trans youth tell their stories and build communities.
When an Executive Order was issued earlier this year barring immigrants and refugees from seven Middle Eastern countries from entering the United States, we held a wildly successful fundraiser for the ACLU. We hope you’ll join us in now doing the same in support of trans rights. To participate as a fan, simply purchase music through Bandcamp today and we’ll donate our share of the sale to TLC. To participate as an artist or label, send some or all of your share of today’s sales directly to TLC here, and let us know your plan in the comments below so that we can help spread the word. Since our announcement, over 200 bands and labels have joined us in donating their share of proceeds to TLC. You can see that list here.
—Bandcamp Staff
(Update: Over the course of our fundraiser for the Transgender Law Center, fans bought nearly $700,000 worth of music. Our share, which is ~12% of that amount, was donated to the TLC.)
Below, you’ll find a sampling of some of the music made by trans and gender non-conforming artists on Bandcamp. We hope that as you listen to these albums, you’ll discover some great new artists from all walks of life, who share their experiences in song.

I’ll be donating 100% of my sales share from Bandcamp on Friday to the TLC. I was appalled by Trump’s arbitrary decision to ban transgender people from the US military in what is clearly a discriminatory attack on their human rights. Really glad Bandcamp are doing this.
https://annekamusic.bandcamp.com
Happy to donate my own sales this friday to the TLC! Thanks Bandcamp for doing this!
love, Stereochemistry (we are five aliens sharing one human body: two are boys, two are girls, one is omnigender; two are heteros, two are homos, one is omnisexual, so yeah… we wired ourselves up for experiencing all sorts of human experience and connections!)

Wow thank you so much for this article! Choosing to use your position to bring practical aid as well as awareness is just stunning.
I’m gradually adding new songs to my first full length release and anything I make on Friday will be donated to the Transgender Law Center.
As a trans/queer/lgbtqia person, each time I notice other individuals being visible, valuing themselves and each other, it feels to “come out”, as lgbtqia and/or creatively and be a dominant-culture-defying individual. The “spectacle” of lgbtqia people being valued is so rare as to be astonishingly powerful and moving. By supporting trans artists and trans rights, Bandcamp feels like a really good space to be in, and I’m even more pleased now I’ve found a whole bunch of great new musicians whose stories resonate to some degree with me. Awesome post!
Apparently my music sounds a bit like tom waits, but genre switch is my thing.. See what you think.. https://themolluscdimension.bandcamp.com
100% on board with this. Cheers to everyone involved in helping to make this happen!
Will be donating all proceeds (assuming any come my way) from my crappy techno tracks throughout the entire weekend (Aug 4-6).
https://watchingnebula.bandcamp.com if you really are interested. I don’t have to be LGBT+ to be outraged at the treatment trans people face.
Mississippi Jones will be donating 100% of proceeds from this day as well.
http://music.mississippijones.com
Very happy to receive this news! Bravo, Bandcamp! I am also be happy to donate all sales from my bandcamp this weekend. If I have the time, I may even record and release something new this weekend too to boost sales! Thank you, BC!
Also, if you’re in the PNW, or Seattle you should come to this all Queer/Trans* noise/experimental night we’re doing. Support trans artists directly.
https://www.facebook.com/events/492209924446930/
How about supporting transgender bands? I’m in a Seattle-based transgender noise collective and we need to eat and have gas to get to work to support ourselves. Transgender Law Center isn’t going to help with that, are they?

Yet another reason why I love doing business through Bandcamp. I made a duo record with Heather Christian called Long Arc (on Bandcamp at: http://store.heatherchristian.com/album/long-arc) that we dedicated to the Pulse Nightclub victims and their families and have been sending proceeds from that record to their Gofundme and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Happy to be a part of this day on Friday and to donate to the TLC.
Thank You! I plan to buy everything in my wishlist this Friday. Trans rights are human rights and Bandcamp rocks!
Glad you clarified that. I will donate 100% of my albums sales to this effort! Thanks for including me. https://georgiejessup.bandcamp.com/
Short Bio:
Georgie Jessup’s songwriting is influenced by everything from old school country to Memphis R&B, placing her music firmly in the “cosmic” Americana Music genre. Her lyrics reflect her outspoken advocacy for animal rights, Native American issues, transgender rights and environmental sanity. The subject of an award winning documentary film, “Woman in A Man’s Suit,” Georgie also has four, well received, CDs available. “Georgie sings from the heart, like a rare flower in a wilderness,” says blues diva Candye Kane. “She speaks to us about the deepest issues. Issues that all of us should care about, but so many of us pretend don’t affect us.”

Akin to the fundraiser for the ACLU, I’ll be donating all sales on Friday to TLC.
Hey! I’m gonna jump on the bandwagon here cause this issue is important to me too.
All the money from any sales I make this week or over the weekend (including Monday since this one is a long weekend here in Canada) on https://vertigofox.bandcamp.com will go to TLC.
I’d recommend Cognitiophobic EP especially for this since that was written in the months after the US election in November and meant as a reflection on the reasons I thought Trump wasn’t qualified.
I commented earlier, but I just want to join in and say that I’ll donate 100% of my download sales on Friday to the Transgender Law Center as well.
https://evadetheeyeprog.bandcamp.com

https://lichkingmetal.bandcamp.com/
Though I am not of transgender orientation, I believe ALL people deserve the respect and acceptance as citizens of this world. Let’s all end the hate and bigotry and make our planet a better place for everyone. Leaders who divide us have not learned the mistakes of the past.
peace and best wishes,
Joseph

Love has no gender.
She’s a boy
He’s a girl
And they want to change the world
Doesn’t matter what they are
‘Cause everybody is a star.
Great idea but I wish it was loner than a single day, that doesn’t seem to be very much time to raise donation funds. Are you going to be posting how much is raised?
I’m a trans woman and composer. All of the proceeds from sales of my symphony goes to 3 trans organizations, forever.

You guys kick so much ass for doing this! I’ll also be donating 100% of my proceeds from http://chaserayment.bandcamp.com on Friday for this cause.
Sub Pop is with you! We’re also going to donate 100% of our Bandcamp sales on Friday, August 4th. Thank you Bandcamp for leading another important effort.
Swedish Columbia on board! > http://swedishcolumbia.bandcamp.com
This is a good cause, while i’m not from the US, i am trans and I will participate in this to help peers in what from the outside seems like particularly hard times.
I would greatly appreciate if any of you gave a listen to my music: https://alting255.bandcamp.com/music, any money I make until August 4th will be donated, and I will be making some purchases myself.
Thank you Bandcamp. My label ZOOM LENS will be participating. We will be giving 100% digital proceeds of ALL albums + 100% profits from ALL CDs / tape / vinyl sales.
We also released a charity compilation earlier this year entitled “Love Without Domination,” which has raised over $500+ so far. All proceeds indefinitely go towards ACLU, Border Angels, and Planned Parenthood

Would like to give but have to have sales to do so. If you include me in your ad then I woudl be glad to contribute. Thank you.
I am an Intersex woman! Well, I don’t go on being a musician known as a ” Trans-Artist ” because to me it is not a focus; but I do appreciate you guys standing up so clearly in “our ” help!
Thank you so much!
I am glad my music is distributed by your company.
cheers!

What a brilliant cause. Bad Bat Records will donate 100% of their sales on Friday from their Bandcamp label page to this great cause.
I am beyond impressed at the way many organizations and companies are standing up for what is right in these times. We are making history.

Excellent! Thank you for this Bandcamp. I’m not concerned but tired of every kind of discrimination.
I’m a trans woman and I’d like to get in on this!! I’ll donate 60% of my sales to TLC on Friday (I’m a little stressed about being able to afford hormones at the moment). I just released my first EP back in June! https://humanly.bandcamp.com/

I know it’s a little early only been with you for a month but hey let’s get married anyway. lol ok srsly I’m a transgender artist who travels the world performing and speaking on panels & seminars on the history of the “illegal” trans march in Toronto Canada.
Thank you for making my day

Love Bandcamp for this. It’s great to be part of a music platform that’s concerned with the needs of the community. Glasfrosch will be donating our sales on Friday for sure.
Right on! We can’t sit by silent while others impose their insensitive and uneducated agenda, I’m no superstar but I’ll donate all my sales Friday!
Wonderful and important work! Again! Thank you Bandcamp.
