What I am asking for is a different pricing mechanism for bands and artist. This is not an unreasonable ask considering that Music on Facebook is one of their biggest draws and they happily use that fact to sell advertising. They can give a break to the people providing valuable content.

Interesting to think about for sure. Facebook's algorithmic solution seems to be that to the extent that any post is a true draw to Facebook, that post will get more likes and thereby be more likely to percolate up into other users' main feeds. Boosting that post will therefore cost less. This provides sort of a sliding scale without pricing tiers.
