We are an Atlanta band trying to finish our first album's production. We'd love your help.
Oh, hello….
We’re The Mad Flight, and we’re making our first album. It's almost finished, but we need your help to get it the rest of the way. All of the funds we raise will go toward the remainder of the album’s production costs and its physical pressing. To keep the album’s spring release on schedule, we’re only giving ourselves till St. Patrick's Day to raise these funds.
Here's how this works. It starts off as a basic album pre-order set-up. The bonus is that by contributing, you're helping to ensure the album's completion. The more you pledge, the more cool stuff you get—exclusive bonus tracks, lithographic prints of our album artwork, recording time in the studio we use, typewritten lyrics, sweet haircuts, and so on. The transactions are all secure through Amazon, and nothing gets transacted until after the 3/17 deadline & goal amount have been reached.
Here's the catch. This only works if pledges reach or exceed the full goal amount. If this fundraiser falls short of that goal by the St. Patrick's Day deadline, then you don't pay anything. Unfortunately, that'd also mean you wouldn't get your rewards, and we'd be left in the lurch with the album. That's why the best way to make sure you get the rewards you want is to share this Kickstarter project with your friends as well. That way, everybody wins.
We hope you’ll consider helping us finally make this album a reality. We'll keep you updated via Facebook & Twitter. Take care, and thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
The Mad Flight
