Sister Crayon

Sacramento, CA

We are from good ol' Sacramento, CA. What started as a solo project by Terra Lopez has now emerged into a powerful four piece project. Our debut album "Bellow" will be released soon on indie label, Manimal Vinyl Records. We have two Fall/Winter tours scheduled (with Anticon's Baths & Manimal's own Papercranes).

    Update on your rewards!!!

    Hello everyone,
    First off-we just once again want to say thank you so much to everyone for supporting us and helping us reach our goal. We are so amazed by everyone's support.
    We just wanted to let you know that we are waiting for Kickstarter to process the transactions. In the meantime, we are preparing all of your rewards-from limited edition special personalized EP's, to t-shirts, stickers, thank you notes, posters, and more!
    We are about to go on tour in October but before we leave, we will be asking for everyone's address so we can start the process of shipping your gifts out to you!
    For those in Sacramento, SF, and even possibly LA-we can hand deliver you the gifts if you would like!
    Once again, we appreciate you and just wanted to say thank you so much for helping us achieve our goal.
    We would not be able to tour without your help.
    Love
    Sister Crayon

        Ah sister crayon i absolutely love you guys.
        But i have recently come up with a problem.
        I pledged to you guys, than i realized I needed the money so I tried to cancel it.
        but then it just left me with no reward and still took my money.
        and i was sad cause i really wanted to meet u guys :/
        especially since it still took my money.. >.<
        can we figure something out possibly?
        :D

    THANK YOU!!!! WE DID IT!

    Hello everyone!

    This morning I woke up to texts simply stating "YEAAAAAA!" or "YOU GUYS DID IT!" or "WE DID IT!"...and so on and so on.

    I jumped out of bed, ran to my computer and almost burst into tears when I saw that we had reached our goal of $3500.

    I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who either pledged, spread the word, or simply put out good vibes towards this goal.
    The universe provides...hard work does pay off. (BTW, we are still doing the no coffee/no cigs until the final day...we're committed to sticking it out!)

    Without being too sappy, I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone. We could not have done this without your support.

    If we happen to go over 3,500-we are putting that towards the van...the more money we are able to raise, the more reliable the van. So thank you and feel free to keep on spreading the word...we have 7 more days !!!

    We will be updating within this week pictures of possible future vans for us...so keep checking back! We will also be updating a thank you video and also be showing you guys t-shirt and sticker ideas...which will be yours soon!

    Ok, so once again...thank you so much.
    We love you.

    Love

    terra, dani, nicholas, and jeff
