Spotify for Artists?
•
Spotify is the biggest music streaming service in the world and yet it’s paying one of the lowest royalty rates at around $0.003 per stream.
The CEO of Spotify Daniel Ek is worth 3 x the net worth of Paul McCartney (one of the greatest selling recording artists of all time)
…..& ok business is business 😏 but Ek has invested 100 million dollars of these profits made from other peoples art into War weaponry tech! (google it)
•
As a consumer, I used spotify for many years & even for quite sometime knowing the above information 😅👆🏼
I was comfortable with what I knew, it works really well & all my friends use it, but the biggest hurdle stopping me from moving to another service was my playlists! Years & years of research curating them.
(Solution below)
But if We want things to change, We have to put our money where our mouth is.
I personally made the switch to as they pay one of the highest rates to artists at around $0.01 per stream.
The app looks, feels & works the same as Spotify, but it comes with better audio quality & it’s the same price 👌🏼
“But my playlists!?” …..Fear not friends! I found an app called “song shift” You can easily shift your playlists from spotify to your chosen service in the click of a button for Free.
•
So make the change!
Support services that pay musicians a fair share of the profits they make from the music on their platform.

CASTING NOW - AUSTRALIA WIDE

Following the AGM of Pomona Arts Inc yesterday 18th November 2023 held at the Majestic Theatre Pomona. We would like to announce the retirement of our much-loved resident organist Mr Ron West. Ron has been involved with the theatre for over 48 years. From initially purchasing the theatre from Ernie Bazzo in the early 1970s to selling it to the community in 2006 including all the chattels with an interest free loan. Ron was instrumental in bringing Silent Films to the theatre in the early 1980s which is now the core business of the Majestic. By doing this he has kept the interest of Silent Films alive for not just our local community but for all who visit the theatre from all over the country and the world. It is currently the only theatre in the world that continuously screens silent films thanks to Ron West.

Ron also over the years bought artefacts to the theatre from theatres all over the country that were closing down and put those artefacts into the Majestic. Some examples would be the doors which come from the Valhalla Brisbane, the ticket booth glass from the Wintergarden in Ipswich and the organ grill from the Roxy in Parramatta NSW. Making the Majestic even more unique.

But Ron is most known for his organ playing. Every Saturday you could see him accompanying a silent film on the magnificent 1937 Compton Organ.

We thank you Ron for your amazing dedication to the Majestic Theatre Pomona and to arts and cultural development in general. And we wish you all the best. We will miss you allot and hope you will come and visit us occasionally.

Thank you to Christine Hall Photographer for this wonderful photo that was taken recently. It’s the best yet !!

Watch this space as we introduce you to our new resident organist!!!

We love that ya’ll are listening to our music. But if you REALLY wanna support us - please buy a presale ticket to a show, and then buy merch.

Honestly it helps us sooooo much more. We never pay off album costs through streaming. Playing live is how we make a living!

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS DECO CLOCK !!!
Last sighted at the Majestic Theatre Pomona approximately 4 weeks ago. We have had a thorough search of the theatre and it appears to be missing. A much-cherished 1923 deco marble clock with brass face in working order and on loan to the theatre. It has resided on top of the Beale piano next to the stage in the main hall for 5 years for everyone to enjoy, and a great memory of the Deco era. I’m sure many of you would be familiar with this clock.
Any information leading to the return of this much loved Majestic artefact would be taken in confidence and much appreciated.
