FAMSPA CONCEPT
The concept is clear. Keep
musicians play music. Keep composers, arrangers and songwriters
write songs and music. Keep singers sing those wonderful songs.
And keep entertainers and performers entertain us and
perform for us. One of the most effective and practical ways to
accomplish this, is to keep those creative minds and souls
working and producing. But to do so, they need our full support.
And how do we define support? Not by accolades, but with
financial remuneration and a wide exposure, so the public will
become aware of their work, shows, performances, releases of
their albums and CDs, and their appearances in regional and
national venues. In other words, PROMOTION.
The Federation of American
Musicians, Singers and Performing Artists knows about promotion
and how to offer artists maximum exposure. It has also the
means, ways and resources. And promotion should not be costly.
FAMSPA's members will benefit from the strong ties it has with
the music industry and direct access to decision makers in the
music industry, as well as to publishers and editors of numerous
magazines, newswire services and influential entertainment
writers and reviewers.

History of FAMSPA
The Federation
of American Musicians, Singers and Performing Artists (FAMSPA)
is a United States nonprofit organization established in January
2007. A considerable number of entertainment writers, columnists
and artists felt the urgent need to create an organization that
could, and would, promote the quality work of American artists on
a national and international scale without imposing further
financial burden on them.
No country can
survive if its art dies out. And no civilization will thrive
without art and music. Performing artists, singers, musicians, and
composers are the soul, heart, and mind of happy societies.
Without full support for the outstanding work of artists and
without public recognition of their contributions to our world,
musicians, singers and artists will suffer, cease to produce and
create, and eventually, will fade away. Human dignity and
appreciation of the arts should not allow this to happen.
Thus, FAMSPA came to life to respond to these needs. Via its boards,
committees and volunteers, FAMSPA established a coalition of
experts in the field, syndicated columnists, writers, professional
artists, national and international performers, agents and
promoters to offer pragmatic, rapid, and almost cost-free ways and
means to bring the attention of the general public, the consumers,
music lovers, industry supporters and the media to the work of
musicians, singers and performing artists. FAMSPA's Concept and
Mission clearly outline the strategies and methods it
implements to accomplish these objectives and reach its goals.
