For one day only, Bandcamp is donating 100% of their profits to artists in light of the current coronavirus pandemic and its inevitable economic impact on musicians. The platform is already pretty incredible as it usually gives around 80-85% to artists (as opposed to iTunes who gives about 60%).

In light of that, we’ve put together a list of 10 awesome Aussie artists whose albums you can buy on vinyl. Check it out below.
