About this project
Hello world wide web of music lovers! The Rise of the Peaceballoon is about to set out on a musical journey and you can help!
We are going to produce an LP, a 45, tee-shirts, badges and a limited run of handmade CDs and we would love to share them with you.
Brother Eric Villa records all of our music on his magical recording machine. He's the only one that knows how to record us and we love that special sound.
We prefer to release this on our own but we need your help to do this.
Our budget is to cover the above mentioned items, but if we go over, we can fund a new magical recording machine as well as new mics and stands. Not to mention, an amp for Brother Eddie and a tune up on Brother Eric's guitar. We can also go on tour and see you!
Please watch our video. After that, check out our MySpace page and get to know us a little. We have music, videos, photos and general good old fashioned fun. The address is www.myspace.com/theriseofthepeaceballoon. Come on by!
We would also like to give a special thanks to all of the folks that helped us by contributing to our video and to Ms. LB for supplying the camera.
We are members of our own self-proclaimed preservation society and wholly support the historic process of creating a product that will fill your ears, eyes and heart with that good old feeling of sitting on the edge of your bed, reading along to your favorite group.

Hi. My name is Nicole. My husband, our best friend and I are in a band called The Rise of the Peaceballoon. We're a stompin rock and roll band with a little bit a holler.
We're looking for backing to make an independant record, cds, tee-shirts, the whole deal.
We're playing more and more now and are gaining a bit of a following, and now it's time to become a "real band" that actually has stuff at shows.
We're fun folks and we're all about peace love and brotherhood. We just want people to have a good time. And we like to help make it happen. We also really enjoy turtles. Just a side note.
You can check out our audio and some fun videos on www.myspace.com/theriseofthepeaceballoon. I hope you enjoy.
If anyone could send an invite my way to start this project, please do! :)
