About this project

Hello friends,

My name is Johnny Franck I'm from Columbus, Ohio. I recently started a project with my friend Mike Caswell from Sacramento, California called The March Ahead. Most of you may know me from singing and playing guitar in the band Attack Attack!

I recently parted ways with the band because I felt God was calling me to make him a bigger priority in my life. Touring made it difficult to do this for many reasons. Here is a video I made to explain why I left: http://www.youtube.com/watch...

This was a super SUPER hard decision for me to make because I love playing music.

I started The March Ahead because I love to make and play music. With this music project I will be playing shows occasionally but I will not be going out on 6 week long tours like i was doing with Attack Attack!

We need this money to help fund the costs of recording songs with Joey Sturgis so that we can get this project off the ground and bring these songs to all of you! Thanks in advance for all of your support!!

FAQs:

HOW DO I PLEDGE?

To pledge to a project, just click the green “Back This Project” button on any project page. You will be asked to input your pledge amount and select a reward. From there, you will go through the Amazon checkout process. Note that you must finish the Amazon checkout process for your pledge to be recorded.

IF I MAKE A PLEDGE, WHEN IS MY CARD CHARGED?

If the project you’re backing is successfully funded, your card will be charged when the project reaches its funding deadline. If the project does not reach its funding goal, your card is never charged. That's why we call them pledges.

CAN I INCREASE MY PLEDGE ONCE IT HAS BEEN MADE?

YES! Once you donate to the campaign, you may want to change your incentive reward to a different one, or simply increase your pledge amount. To do so, please sign in on Kickstarter as usual. On our campaign page, click the blue button that reads "Manage Your Donation." If you click it, you can enter a new amount, or choose a new incentive!

CAN WE EXCEED THE GOAL?

YES! Kickstarter will allow us to raise as much money as you are willing to pledge before the deadline. With the additional amount raised, we will simply continue to invest more into our recordings and put some towards a music video!!
