Info: Fair Trade Music 1000 We are proud to announce the FMSNY executive board voluntarily agreed to the American Federation of Musicians Local 1000 Fair Trade Music principles for our concert program. In essence it means that our club agrees to pay at least union scale to the performers in those concerts, including house concerts, for which we are the primary sponsor. Our agreement does not cover non-concert events such as singarounds and weekends, nor does it cover concerts featuring our own club members and concerts where we are a cosponsor but from which we receive no income.
