Safo Music masterclass **WHY SOME ARTISTS GROW AND OTHERS STAY STUCK** You write great songs. You release music. You post on social media. Yet somehow other artists seem to build momentum while your project stays in the same place. Why?

You'll discover: • Why talent alone is rarely enough • The biggest mistakes artists make when trying to grow their audience • How successful artists build momentum release after release • The strategies that turn casual listeners into genuine fans • How to create opportunities instead of waiting for them to happen • The framework we use to help artists develop long-term careers Whether you're just starting out or already releasing music, you'll leave with practical ideas you can implement immediately. **FREE SEMINAR** **Friday 19th June \| 7pm** **Safo Music Group, Crouch Hill, London** Places are limited.

Everyone who's been nagging me to put this on, well you got it! A night of open-room karaoke in the middle of London. Why open room? Bigger song selection, no one feels under pressure to sing and no one has to pay. We're doing this at [The Britannia](https://www.britanniamonument.com) in Monument, just up the road from London Bridge. It serves food and has karaoke 'til late on Fridays (and Thursdays and Saturdays, apparently), and I'll book a table once I get an idea of numbers. Sing whatever you want or just hang out, but remember: it's not about being 'good', it's about being entertaining and having fun!

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
