Happy Labor Day! Today at Campfire we recognize the labor of those who make music possible and accessible to the public.

Musicians, songwriters, producers, sound engineers, venue staff, road crews, instrument makers, independent label teams, promoters, educators, activists, and many others.

We’re bringing the fire to @icehousempls on September 14 for a Campfire Music Foundation Benefit Concert — a night of music and education to power our mission of building a nonprofit music streaming platform that puts artists first.

Campfire Music Foundation was started by a group of college students and has since evolved into a nonprofit building public benefit technology backed by artists, fans, and music advocates.

Campfire Music Foundation is building public-benefit technology that addresses the structural issues of the music industry.

Our flagship project is Campfire, a new music streaming platform that pays artists more fairly and gives fans a more authentic music discovery experience.

#AI-generated tracks are being uploaded under the names of dead artists. Many are still live across #musicstreamingplatforms.

This pattern raises concern that legacy catalogs are being funneled through anonymous shell companies to repackage content under trusted names without consent or credit.

There’s been an exodus of #artists leaving #Spotify. Low payouts. Lack of transparency. Independent #musicians are speaking up and walking away.

Campfire exists to build something better.

Artists deserve better, help us build a future where #music serves the people who create and love it.

We sat down with Wordplay T. Jay to discuss the current #musicstreaming platforms, how they give #artists access to their audiences, and ways that could be improved. To learn more and support, visit the link in our bio. igg.me/at/campfirem...

#Music begins with culture workers who originate content, yet streaming economics ends with these same workers, who are the last to receive any financial return.

Help us build a more sustainable and ethical model of #musicstreaming by supporting the Indiegogo campaign. igg.me/at/campfirem...

Do the streams qualify for additional royalties (e.g., from PRS/MCPS and other PROs)?

Yes. Campfire will obtain the necessary licenses so that streams on our platform count for performance and mechanical royalties, just like on any major streaming service.

Who is involved?

Campfire is led by a small, dedicated team and supported by an experienced board. I serve as the CEO and work alongside fellow music lovers who have backgrounds in tech, nonprofit management, and the music industry.

How do you plan to get users on the platform?

Our user-growth strategy is all about tapping passionate music communities. When independent artists join Campfire, they’ll bring their fans with them.

How do you plan to get music on the platform?
We’re actively inviting independent artists and small labels to join Campfire. Over the past two years, we’ve built relationships through local concerts and music conferences, and these artists will be among the first onboard.
