Update #8: I SEE LAND!!

Posted on May 8

Hello,

Cousin Id is mixed, mastered, designed, and at the factory getting packaged! We are sending out your little treats soon, so stay tuned! In the mean time, check out this video of us playing in Manhattan. We got some old songs and some new songs in there.

Our release show is this Saturday, May 12 at Hell Gate Social in Astoria, NY. Come out and celebrate! 

Thanks for sticking with us!

Update #7: Cousin Id coming soon!

Posted on April 11

So, after months of mixing, editing, and playing our new material at venues all around NY, Cousin Id is finally ready to be mastered. We are having one more listening session with an outside engineer this weekend, and then we're shipping it out.

We've put in what seems like an endless amount of hours of work into this album, and we are very excited to announce the release. Since you have been our supporters from the very beginning of this project, we decided to let you know first! 

We will be shipping out your rewards soon, so stay tuned for a lot of updates in the next few weeks.

This is the home stretch! Thanks for sticking with us!

Update #6: Finishing up

Posted on January 11

Hello! We haven't updated in a while. We've been hard at work in different studios getting the album ready for mastering. Samurai Banana only has a few songs left to lay cuts on, and he's finished the layout for almost every song. We will have stickers in the next week or so, and there's a new shirt on the way as well. The album artwork will also be done soon, so stay tuned for some sneak peeks and more updates! Thanks for all the help! We couldn't have gotten to this point without all your support! Enjoy the new year!

Update #5: We met our goal!

Posted on December 6

With time to spare, we met our goal a couple days ago! Samurai Banana and I are very excited to continue our work on Cousin Id and use your donations to get the CD mastered properly and packaged nice and pretty (for those of you who still have tangible CDs). We're continuing to ask for more donations, as our goal was simply a reachable amount, and not the actual cost of mastering and packaging, but we can all rest easier knowing we were successful in meeting the goal that we set! 

Keep checking up on us for the next week. We have another special release for everyone!

Also, if you're in the NY area, come to Queens this Saturday to celebrate Samurai Banana's birthday with us! Here's the facebook event link:

Thanks for all of the support,

Update #4: We broke a thousand!

Posted on November 30

Hey guys! We have over a week to go and we're 81% funded. In this last week, we're hoping to meet our goal so we use all of these donations toward the album. The donations we've received so far have been so helpful and make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! But we still have a couple hundred to raise, so keep spreading the word. And the love.

We are finishing up the vocals tomorrow and Samurai Banana is laying his cuts very soon. He's been adding a lot of production to the beats as well. It's sounding really good and I can't wait to share some rough tracks with our donors. That will come very soon.

Since we're so close to goal, Samurai Banana mixed another album of ours down for re-release. It's free for download and comes with lyrics and album art, so go snag that if you're looking for some new (or old but refurbished) tunes!

Again, thank you all so much for your generosity and support. I can't wait until you see what we'll be doing with your donations!
