I'm launching a Kickstarter Project to finish my third studio album! Make a contribution here: www.kickstarte...
I have written ten original songs that I think are some of my best yet! I love these songs and I can't wait for you to hear them.
There are A LOT of people involved in creating an album. Most of these people are other musicians and artists; for example, the band (guitarist, bassist, drummer), string quartet (violins, viola, and cello), sound engineer, photographer, and graphic designer. I am working with some extremely talented people to make this album the best it can be!
Where Is Your Money Going?
What I love about these projects is that the money goes directly to supporting other musicians and artists. So far, I have invested $8,000 of my own money into recording this album. I am asking for another $10,000 to finish the project. Our total budget is $18,000. Here is how the budget breaks down:
• Musicians (rehearsals & recording sessions): $5,600
• Studio Time (renting the recording space): $4,425
• Mixing & Mastering: $3,675
• Manufacturing & Releasing: $3,500
• Estimated Kickstarter Fees: $800
What Rewards Do You Receive For Contributing?
I have some really exciting rewards for you all! If you contribute to the lowest tier, you will have your name printed in the thank you credits of the album forever. I LOVE doing this reward, because then I can thank each and every person who was a part of this project, PLUS years later, I get to look back and be reminded of everyone. It makes me feel a wave of gratitude for everyone every time I see the names again!
Other rewards include stickers, an AUTOGRAPHED ALBUM, T-shirts, music books, handwritten lyrics, a fan package with more albums and a limited edition hoodie, an original song written and recorded, and an autographed ukulele!
I can't promise that the song will be shared on my RU-vid channel, but you never know! It might even make it on the next album. ;)
Thank You
As an independent artist without a record label, all of my music projects are supported solely through fan-funded sites like Kickstarter and Patreon. (That means they've been made possible because of all of you!!!)
So, thank you for supporting the making of independent art, and for choosing me to be that vessel. I am so grateful. So so grateful!
Thank you for reading! I hope to show you an amazing album soon. :)

If the goal is not met within 30 days, the project will not be funded. All rewards will be delivered in September 2024, except the original songs, which may take until December 2024.
