Kickstarter

Hello!  I began studying music about 12 years ago.  I have come a long way yet I have never recorded any of my compositions and songs to demonstrate what I can do.  This particular project is an opportunity for me to realise a type of sound I have, until now, only been able to imagine. 

My Goal is to put a new face to pop music.  I want to integrate fun elements from jazz and clever word play in the catchy clean sound of modern popular music.  The compositions are complete but the only way for someone to hear them for what they're worth is to record a high quality album.  I could not display any acoustic version of my pieces because it would take away from the integrity and nature of this project.  It's a leap of faith or curiosity - or both! to donate to this endeavour, however you will be proud to have taken a part in it! 

The money that I collect here at Kickstarter goes straight into the creation of this project.  I have effectively coordinated with many individuals to ensure this dream can turn into a reality.  Most of everyone that will play a part in this are already doing favours and providing friend pricing.  Even with this, recording is still expensive.  How expensive?  Check out the breakdown:

Any amount pledged beyond this initial budget will first be used to guarantee extra production of rewards to fullfil pledges and then to supplement the lower rates accommodated by my generous musicians, producers and engineers. Anything beyond that will go into the production of a CD release party - so every bit goes into creativity and music!

HOWEVER... If the goal of $8,950 is not met - even if by just $1, this project will receive $0.00.  This is an all or nothing campaign so Please pass this on to allow as many people as possible a chance to pledge!

Pledging is much more than a donation, it's being part of something great and getting great things in return.

Have you taken your time to inspect the rewards? The wooden blocks are calling your name! And what about that dirty limerick that you can frame and turn that insipid wall in your house into a provocative one?

And of course... here is your chance to sail, drink, eat and party with the greatest swashbucklers of our time, and listen to Sea-Gypsy Jazz! Presenting our trusty and most convivial vessel, Lord Byron's Revenge:

Above all, here is a chance to hear the unique sound an inspired individual has spent endless hours creating.
