Posted project update #17A Kickstarter campaign near to my heart
Post CommentDear my loyal backers,
I normally never do this, but Brian McTear is my dear friend and produced 3 of my albums, including the self-titled record you all helped make. He is running a Kickstarter Campaign right now to support a very worthy cause, which you can read about below and also by clicking on the blue link.
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/27389455/shaking-through-a-documentary-music-series-volume
Weathervane Music is a non profit organization co-run by Brian McTear and Peter English. Brian is the director of Weathervane Music. WV Music discovers and furthers the careers of new and emerging musical artists. Brian McTear and Peter English try to find artists that are not working with record labels and need the extra push to get their music heard.
Because the United States is severely lacking in arts funding, organizations like Weathervane Music are what help people like me and slews of others continue to do what they do. WV Music helped to launch, most recently, Sharon Van Etten's career trajectory by recording "Love More" for the "Shaking Through" Video Series. This song was then covered by Bon Iver and WV Music thus helped to make a brilliant and lovely songwriter like Sharon heard throughout the world. Brian is also one of the nicest guys I know, complete with a heart of gold and ears of platinum. Donate to a very worthwhile Kickstarter project and please spread this link around.
PS- I am excited to be curating one of these in the future, where I will get to pick some of my own favorite unsung heroes and help to get their music heard. Thank you for listening and supporting worthy causes and believing that art makes the world a better place.
Love,
Marissa
ps: (If you have not, for some reason, received your package [minus the 5 paintings to the highest backers, which are in the works] and the few t-shirts, let me know) I try my very best and thankfully now have an intern to help me out a little to get stuff out. :) Phew!!

Posted project update #9From Marissa
Hey my lovely kickstarter backers!
We are now one month away from the physical release date of my new record!!! You know what that means (see tier descriptions). I have spent several months getting all of your packages organized, and the cds are going to start shipping this week to Europe and at the end of the week or next week to the US.
The vinyl is almost ready from the manufacturing plant and those will be mailed out in a couple weeks. And your posters, t-shirts, ivy and the clovers, etc. are all ready too! And for those 5 lucky people, original paintings!
You are going to be getting your packages a little early, as I am leaving for a little tour of the west coast and need to mail everything out before I leave. I have been working really hard on this stuff, especially with all those hand written customs forms!
I am excited to share this record with you. You guys will also be getting a free EP, called "Rain Arrangement", that was recorded in the same session as the new record. You ALSO will be getting a free covers cd (volume II), although that isn't done yet, and might be sent a little after the release date.
So, thank you so much again for making this record happen. I have a new video for the first single off the record, "Baby, I will leave you in the morning." I am actually in this one! http://vimeo.com/23559249
