Music Go Round Aurora sends a special greeting! And COMBO says: Have a happy – and SAFE – July 4th Holiday! We need all of our gifted musicians (and their families) back to celebrate the scene!
.
We’re starting our own GoFundMe!! Crowd-funding is such a wonderful concept – works for churches, politics, and musicians. So why not for a music-centric not-for-profit group formed to help musicians with the business of music? If you haven’t joined COMBO yet, or need to re-up dues, please go to our website at https://www.coloradomusic.org and hit the “Join COMBO” tab!
$30 for individuals, $55 for a band, and $95 for a business. In return, we’ll “gift” you with help for your career in music in lots of ways!
.
COMBO is about the LOVE of Music and musicians. We have a board of dedicated and knowledgeable musicians and supporters who play or produce music and music acts. We offer an exchange of information, guidance and advice to help musicians advance their careers no matter what field you’re in. Our articles and programs represent some phase of the music business that could affect musicians – all musicians – everywhere. Our motto in Colorado: Elevate Your Musical State!
