The CDs arrived on the glorious full moon of last eve! All 1,033 of them!! We are soo excited to finally see them. It's all really happening! wow.
What an amazing journey this entire process has been! And we have YOU to THANK!!

Folks outside the Seattle area, will likely receive your rewards in the mail close to if not on the CD release party date of June 25 (that is our goal!). May take a little longer for our international fans (sorry my friend!).
We are so fortunate to have so many who have supported, believed, and cheered us on! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Posted project update #6Weekend # 3 complete!
Post CommentJust a little note to let you know that the CD is mixed and about to be mastered!! We have 12 tracks and we are working on the artwork now. It's almost done!!! wow!!! Lots of work in a very short time.
A limited edition EP will be available at Northwest Folklife called "Almost Home"... it will feature 4 or 5 tracks from the new album as well as some live material. This EP will be the official release of our new single "Broken". It will be a limited run and will be numbered and signed.
It will go on sale Friday May 27th and can be purchased through the FolkLife store and email/paypal. If you are not in the Seattle area and wish to purchase a copy, please email us seastar@jetbutterfly.com The CD will be $12 and that includes shipping. Remember.. there will only be 100 copies... and that all!
Our CD Release party of "Home" is scheduled for Saturday June 25th at SoulFood Books in Redmond, WA. This is such an amazing space with a sincere feeling of 'coming home'. The band could not think of a better place to have the release! The concert will start at 8pm Pacific time and will be streamed live on the internet through soultribetv.com So if you can't make it locally, you can still see the concert!!
In 2 weeks we will start gathering your contact information for your rewards! We are so excited and grateful for all the support! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

Posted project update #3HOLY SMOKES! Coffee all over ....
So I started my day very much like any other. I poured my morning coffee, popped on the computer, sat down, and checked where we were on our Kickstarter page....
Sleepy eyed, I blinked and blinked as I looked at our running total. Suddenly, as if a little bell went DING, my brain registered what I was reading!! I gasped and yippeed, spilling coffee all over my desk and me! Teehee! My goodness... WE MADE OUR GOAL!!! ALL THANKS TO YOU!!!
AND we still have 3 days left to collect donations! Anything over and beyond will help with getting a PA system for the band and incidentals associated with the CD. Plus, Kickstarter takes their cut too, so this helps us out sooo much!
I promise it will all go to good use! Your enthusiasm and support has made a dream come true for me! My heart is glowing and so full of gratitude.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
♥♥BigLove,
Fae
PS
Once the pledge drive is over, I will contact everyone who donated for shipping info for your rewards. We start recording the CD on April 16. We hope to have the finished project for Father's Day/Summer Solstice. *swoon* I am on a cloud. THANK YOU! ♥
