Posted project update #9Get Ready!
HI!
So everything except for the few international packages are either on their way or going out tomorrow!
A few folks didn't get back with their mailing addresses so I sent MP3's as promised. :)
So far the cd is only available on my website if you want more, or want to refer folks to my music (thanks!)...
http://www.kikucollins.com/products.html
It'll be available on iTunes and the rest soon - meanwhile I'm trying to get my act together for ITG next week! SO much is going on, and it's all wonderful!!!
And for those of you local - http://metropolitanroom.com/show.cfm?id=85165&cart;
I'd love to see you there! I'm so happy to have such a wonderful band and a beautiful room to share the magic with you live. I'm surrounded by love like crazy. I was stressed the other night about so much at once, and my daughter told me to not stress - it's unhealthy. Just like I told her. See? They DO listen!!! And I breathed and continued on the path I'm on now.
Take a deep breath, brew some peppermint tea, listen to some music, or just the sound of your breathing. It's all beautiful! Remember just How Lucky You Are...
xoxo

Posted project update #8Ready???
Post CommentI got a small shipment and am awaiting the motherload tomorrow sometime!
I'm going to start shipping now and also sending mp3s. If you didn't respond with your address, I will be sending you an mp3 version to the email address listed here. So if you want a physical cd(s), please respond to the survey ASAP - like NOW! I can't wait any longer!!! I have a TON of cd's to ship and am also trying desperately to learn a bunch of music, get ready for ITG, and be a fabulous Mom! :)
Thank you all again so much, I'm a lucky girl... (please refer to track 6)

Posted project update #7Just a few more weeks...
Hi there! Guess what??? Cd's are being made! YIPPEE! Thanks so much for your help and support.
Now, I'm getting my lists together for mailings and realize - I still need your mailing addresses! And I did realize I could always send mp3's to those who want - I'm not much of a "cd collector" as they get put in my itunes and that's what I work with! SO, if you'd prefer mp3s emailed to you I'd be thrilled to oblige. Just make sure you touch base with me and let me know what you'd prefer - and if it IS a physical cd, your mailing address would be kind of crucial, no?
Hope you like it! Thanks again, and for those in NYC, look for a show date with my band - we HAVE to celebrate with a live performance! Not on my email list? Sign up at http://www.kikucollins.com .
HAPPY SPRING!!!
xoxo

commented on a project updateHi Doug! I'm DEFINITELY a Getzen Girl! It's my 3001MV and Custom Flugel (big, I know!) - I only play Getzen horns. (Also a 998 Eterna valve bone). Well, I own a piccolo and pocket that aren't Getzen but I don't actually need them. :)

Posted project update #6Happy New Year! Happy New Album!
Hi!
I know I've been quiet on Kickstarter, but certainly not in life! Half the record is being mixed, the other half is being tweaked and pondered until I ship it out. I'm SUPER excited and thank you all for helping the process with your generous hearts!
Life has been more than great, and though I was too busy to finish the record by now, I certainly can't complain. Lots of amazing projects and opportunities have been happening along the way, and great things are on the horizon. Yowza!!!
If you are on one of the tiers that gives credit in the liner notes, please be sure that you want your name as your credit. I know some folks may want a business that they own instead, especially something music related, so be sure to send me a message if you'd like your business name instead of your actual name. The design is going beautifully and I'd like to get it wrapped up soon! If you want to UPGRADE, drop me a note! This Kickstarter helped tremendously but it didn't even get me out of the band recording phase... and I'm SO grateful but boy, I'm thinking of digging for treasure in Central Park to try and wrap. Anyone have a treasure map???? But honestly, if you'd like to upgrade your status, it's not too late! I sure appreciate any and all help past, present and future!!!
Hope everyone had a stunning holiday season, and is having an amazing new year. I can't stop smiling, personally!!! YAY!
xoxo

Kiku, what is your gear there? They look like matching copper-belled Kanstuls, but I thought you were a Getzen endorsing artist?

So where do we submit an address? I really have no use for MP3's and would much rather have the autographed cd.
