Alternate title: '''How to create a rainy day fund for your artist.'''

During the Covid-19 lockdown, our artists have now lost a year's worth of income that would have come from public performances.  Please support your artist by buying their music, joining their Patreon and tipping on their vlog live-casts.  What the pandemic has exposed is that most successful indie artists have a core following of a couple of hundred engaged fans, the other 150,000 fans are apathetic and uninvolved.  To make matters worse, music streaming has killed CD sales and music downloads -- most indies just don't have the volume to make it on hundredths of a cent per stream.

The following is for those super-fans who want to do a little more for their artist in the form of a rainy day account giving.  (We are complicit in our artist's risky career choice, because we encourage them to give us more music.)
