Right now THIS Wednesday, May 31: Join MWA in figh Right now THIS Wednesday, May 31: Join MWA in fighting for Fair Pay at SXSW Penske Media HQ, 475 5th Ave (at 41st St, across from the main branch of the public library) in Manhattan, 12pm-1pm SXSW artist pay is an absurdly low $250 per band, and hasn’t increased in over ten years. SXSW can afford Fair Pay: SXSW draws over 30,000 music attendees paying up to $1395 dollars for a badge, and $149 for a wristband, generating $164.8 million in 2022. Artists’ application fees alone generated $275,000 in 2022— over $200,000 more than  SXSW paid out to artists! Penske Media (SXSW's primary owners) also own Rolling Stone, Billboard, Variety, Artforum, Women’s Wear Daily, and a slew of other publications. The billionaire Penske family are noted donors to far-right politicians and causes.  RSVP: HERE. (And plse forward to your lists!) We’ll be jamming in the street, so bring your instrument! MWA (musicworkersalliance.org) is proud to be co-sponsoring this action with UMAW (Union of Musicians and Allied Workers), DSA, and others.

This was the club where artists like Jamiroquai, Massive Attack, Gilles Peterson, Guru’s Jazzamatazz, Daft Punk and Digable Planets first performed. It was also a jumping off point for local artists like Groove Collective, Dana Bryant and Repercussions. Giant Step inspired other like minded parties from Los Angeles to Toronto and beyond.
