About this project

I've been a drummer for different bands and various people for the last 7 and a half years, and I want to make a full-length record of my songs under the name Au Ras Au Ras with Bruce Watson (of Fat Possum Records) at Dial Black Sound. I have reached out to Bruce and he's on board to record it! I'm completely self-taught and didn't start playing until I was 25! I've written the record spanning over this past year. I will sing and play drums, keys and bass on this record and it will also include help from some very special guest musicians!!!

The money will directly go toward the day rate of the studio, reels of 2" and 1/2" tape, the mastering and the pressing of the record.

**Whatever the amount you pledge, you get everything preceding that particular amount. e.g If you pledge $250 you will receive 2 of my original recipes (fusion!!), a mix CD, a signed hard copy, outtakes/demos, and downloads. Also, you'll receive an Animal Electric EP for every pledge $10 or more.
