      Just happened to check the site and I see that you're 99.47 % funded. GRATZ
      Ivory soap is 99.44% pure, and you're at 99.47%. Does that make you better than Ivory Soap. I THINK SO. Kind of a stretch, but I want to help and it's easier to add comments than to pledge to buy a guitar or something.

      95%. We are so close!! Now we're shooting for $15K. Why not!? The project is gaining momentum ... and I'm planning to take the band on the road to tour this record.... every dollar counts at this point, so keep those pledges coming! $10 at a time will get us there...

      Keep sharing this with your friends! If every backer had a friend who pledged at the $10 level ... we'd be $1300 closer! It's all about word of mouth.

      Thanks for a great weekend - look for another new video this week! xoxo - v

      Just watched the video. The track sounds great so far. I have a favorite track from each of your albums and I'm certainly looking forward to the new album. I still remember the first time I heard you play "Gone" at Standard/Pours several years ago before I had any of your records. Wish you the best.

I'm an indie singer/songwriter. I've been making records for nearly 10 years. My passions are great songs with killer lyrics, the way that autumn smells, all food and most wine, and anything related to Italy. I love what I do, and even more, I love all of the people who have helped me do it.
