If you would be interested in serving on COMBO’s board, please send an e-mail to Barb at President@coloradomusic.org, giving your credentials and your reason(s) for wanting to serve! You must have up to 4 hours a month to “donate”. However, if you can do data entry, etc., for us from your home, and don’t particularly want to be on the board, please let Barb know that, too. Disabled people would be perfect!

If you haven’t re-upped your dues in awhile, please considering doing so soon! We haven’t had a chance to send out reminder notices so if you think it’s time, please check and re-join COMBO! We thank you a whole lot!

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!
