About this project
Hello! I am Leslie Keffer, for those of you who don't know who I am , I am a musician from Nashville, TN and I make records! I have been releasing music for almost ten years now and most recently, I recorded a full length cassette tape due out on No Kings tape label later this year. So here is where I need YOUR help- I'm starting a Kickstarter so I can raise enough money to press 500 copies of the 12" dance single from the record, "Finally, Caves (Joy Dance)" w/ "Luna Loblolly" at Nashville's vinyl record pressing plant, United Record Pressing. I will also be making a music video for the song "Finally, Caves!" with local director, Seth Graves. You can stream the song for free here. Your pledges will cover the the cost of pressing and releasing the LP, and the making of the music video, which because of the song's length, will be a mini-movie! I'm offering all levels of pledges and all sorts of great rewards, such as test presses and limited edition split-color vinyl copies of the "Finally, Caves!" LP, my previous albums and releases in mp3 form, all of my other available LPs, dreamcatchers and stained glass candle-holders embellished with quartz crystals that I made and designed myself, an opportunity to appear in the music video you are backing, and more! So please, if you can support my project, I will be forever thankful. (Remember: Every $1 does count!) I won't be able to do this without you guys, so allow me to thank you in advance for your support and your pledges! Lots of love and total gratitude, Leslie Keffer

The label, ran by Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore, began putting out Keffer's records in 2005 after Moore collaborated with Keffer at New York City's No Fun Fest, an annual Noise/Experimental/Avant-Garde music festival founded by Carlos Giffoni in 2004. Moore curated the 2006 All Tomorrow's Parties' Nightmare Before Christmas Festival in Minehead, England and invited Keffer to play along with bands such as Iggy Pop & the Stooges, Sonic Youth, Wolf Eyes, MC5, Dead C, and Deerhoof. Keffer moved to Nashville in 2007. She booked shows at Betty's Bar & Grill for 3 years, bringing noise and all genres of music to West Nashville when she wasn't touring. Keffer is also a member of Noise band the Laundry Room Squelchers and tours as part of the International Noise Conference and has performed all over Europe, Australia, and the United States. Keffer's latest LP on Ecstatic Peace!, titled “Give It Up' is available at www.ecstaticpeace.com, and at local record stores worldwide.
