Musician political contributions from Maryland

Musician and Maryland on the same receipt

FEC itemized individual rows include occupation and donor state. This tie keeps MUSICIAN and MD. The intersection is $537,499, 2,879 contributions, and 49 donors. The occupation nationwide is $15,245,521, 98,255 contributions, and 2,076 donors. Maryland holds about 3.5% of Musician-coded dollars, about 2.9% of Musician-coded contribution rows, and about 2.4% of Musician-coded donors.

The shares are small and clustered. Maryland’s Musician join is a thin cut of a high-row national performing-arts label. The national Musician hub’s 98,255 rows still mix every other state. The Maryland hub still mixes Lobbyist, Government Affairs, and every other occupation.

Forty-nine Maryland donors and 2,879 contribution rows produced $537,499 under MUSICIAN. The occupation side is $15,245,521, 98,255 contributions, and 2,076 donors. About 3.5% of dollars from about 2.4% of donors is a small, even cut of an extremely high-row performing-arts label. SINGER and COMPOSER are other strings. The 98,255 national rows already imply many small itemized gifts; Maryland’s 2,879 rows are part of that pattern.

MUSICIAN as a high-volume national label

MUSICIAN is the typed string. SINGER, COMPOSER, and MUSICIAN/SONGWRITER are other buckets. The national totals—$15,245,521 from 2,076 donors and 98,255 contributions—show an extremely high row count relative to headcount, consistent with many small itemized gifts inside the label.

This page does not verify union cards, touring status, or genre. It reports the labeled receipts and then applies the Maryland donor-state filter.

Forty-nine Maryland musicians on the contributor file

Forty-nine Maryland donors produced 2,879 contributions totaling $537,499. Other Maryland occupations are excluded. Musician receipts from other states fill the remainder of $15,245,521.

MD is the contributor state. It does not prove a Baltimore or D.C.-metro scene, and it does not prove Maryland federal candidates received the $537,499. Recipient geography is not this aggregate’s filter.

Maryland’s 49 Musician-coded donors and 2,879 contributions sit inside 2,076 national donors and 98,255 national contributions. The $537,499 stays on MUSICIAN as typed.

Many lines, a modest dollar slice

Maryland’s 2,879 of 98,255 Musician-coded rows (about 2.9%) sit next to 49 of 2,076 donors (about 2.4%) and $537,499 of $15,245,521 (about 3.5%). The join is not a handful of outsized gifts dominating the occupation; it is a small, relatively even slice of a noisy national label.

Evenness still does not make Maryland typical of other states. About 96.5% of Musician-coded dollars remain outside this page.

Ninety-eight thousand national rows, 2,879 in Maryland

The Musician occupation is one of the higher-row labels in this packet set: 98,255 contributions from 2,076 donors totaling $15,245,521. Maryland’s 2,879 contributions from 49 donors totaling $537,499 are about 2.9% of the rows, about 2.4% of the donors, and about 3.5% of the dollars. The join is a small, even bite of a noisy national title.

MUSICIAN is not SINGER, COMPOSER, or MUSICIAN/SONGWRITER. Filers who used those words are not in the 49 Maryland donors or in the 2,076 national donors for this string. The 98,255 rows already imply many small itemized gifts; Maryland’s 2,879 rows are part of that pattern rather than a break from it.

Lobbyist and Government Affairs also appear with a Maryland donor-state code on other ties. Those occupation totals are not $15,245,521 and must not be added to $537,499. Itemized individual receipts only. See Musician donations, Maryland campaign finance, all occupations, and all FEC ties.

What the match does not mean

This page does not treat musicians as a voting bloc, and it does not rank Maryland’s arts economy. Two columns matched. Correlation is not causation.

Unitemized contributions and independent expenditures are omitted. See Musician donations, Maryland campaign finance, all occupations, and all FEC ties.
