Update #29: Shirt/Finish Line
Today I am starting the pre order for Community Group. I mention this because there is a "regular" t-shirt for sale that is DIFFERENT than the special one many of you will be getting for backing me. I have attached a picture of the kickstarter shirt you'll be receiving if you pledged 50 or more.
The finish line is now clearly in site. Community Group has been sent of to manufacturing! The last step will be sending out your rewards.
I will be posting one last kickstarter update before I send out the rewards.
Love you all!
Jonathan
Update #28: Mixing Complete!
Greetings my fellow backers,
I woke up this morning with the last Community Group mix in my inbox!!! Tomorrow I head down to Bonita, CA for some final mix adjustments and then Community Group will be sent to mastering. The mastering will begin this Thursday and should take around a week to complete.
After the mastering is done it will go to mass production(aka making the physical copy) and then to into your hands and ears!
Once I have the physical copy I will FINALLY be able to send the rewards out. If you wrote in about your address changing it has been noted.
I appreciate all your patience. This whole process has taken a lot longer than I had anticipated it would. I hope you find the music was worth your wait.
Thank you so much for changing my life. With Community Group I truly feel I've been given a clean slate as an artist.
Love,
Jonathan
p.s I can't wait to perform these songs in your towns!

It will be well worth the wait, I'm positive. I hope I get to see you perform again soon!
