Posted project update #11THANK YOU, BACKERS! YOU DID IT...AND THEN SOME!
Not only did you guys meet my goal, you went above and beyond! You've completely surpassed my expectations and I can't thank you enough...but I'm gonna try anyway!
The album is in the final stages and it sounds AMAZING! I'm really lucky to have worked with such talented people and musicians and we're all even luckier to be supported by folks like YOU. I need to send a BIG THANKS to the people at Kickstarter, who made this happen. I couldn't have reached this goal without the tremendous effort that all of you have put forth.
This whole Kickstarter project has really been a heck of a lot of fun! I'll be contacting you to get you info and find out where to send you prizes so please be on the lookout for a message from me!
Again, you have put a perma-smile on my face...I sure hope this album does the same for you.
Love and thanks,
April

Posted project update #5Busy, busy, busy!
Hey backers!
We are working day and night in the studio with Dan Romer on the next album! I'll be posting videos from the studio and our pre-production sessions...even Scout the dog was there. Things are coming along incredibly well and this album is going to be wonderful.
And it's all because of you guys. I'm seriously overwhelmed by your generosity and devotion to my music! I can't believe we're only a few thousand dollars away from making this album a reality. Hopefully, we can reach our goal and even beyond! We only have a little over a month to see this through...I hope you'll all help me spread the word.
Stay tuned for videos coming later this week and thanks again!
love,
April
