YOU CAN BE PART OF OUR CAMPAIGN TO CREATE A SUSTAINABLE MUSIC COMMUNITY
Music is the heartbeat of our culture, but independent musicians are struggling. Most earn less than $6,000 annually from their music. Despite empty promises from streaming giants and politicians, little has changed in policy or funding for independent artists in 3 decades.
Live performance revenues are declining, and streaming services fail to pay artists fairly. Musicians face financial distress and mental health challenges. The system is broken, and multiple government inquiries have failed to bring about change. It’s time for real action.
We’ve invested over $50,000 of our personal funds to develop a fair music streaming service for local, unsigned artists. We’re not tech-bros with trust funds—we’re musicians with day jobs and debts, just like you.
But you can help us finish the build of this incredible platform for our music community. Join our six-month fundraising campaign from June 1 to December 30, 2024. Help us raise $50,000+ to complete and test our platform. Your support will shift the music streaming paradigm from exploitation to empowerment.
This isn’t just a fundraiser—it’s a movement. Let’s reclaim the power of our music. Become a patron of The Pack and foster a cultural revolution. Together, we can ensure local artists are celebrated and compensated fairly.
Join us today. Support The Pack Music Co-operative.
