Overview

Mission

Our mission is to support the development, distribution, and promotion of musicians and bands through fair and equitable recording contracts.

What it reported doing in 2024

Development - We help connect bands to industry experts, other musicians, and learning opportunities to develop their skills. Our limited budget has prevented us from investing financial resources in this area, however we have been working with bands in this area. In 2024, however, we helped connect 3 of our musicians with producers to help finish their albums, helped connect some of our musicians so they can collaborate on songs, and are aiding artists in booking live performances.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
