I'd like to record a new album with my music project Gray Girls. Excellent rewards for potential backers including limited ed LP!

My name is Martin Gaza and I would like to make a follow up to my first album "Honey I" under my music project The Gray Girls. I plan to do this by offering some great incentives here on Kickstarter to potential backers in exchange for funding. "Potential backers" being friends, family and anyone else interested in the music that I make. 

The new album is tentatively titled "Uncertain Futures". I chose that name because if the funding can't be raised, well... you get the idea, and also for reasons better left unsaid!

The money raised will be used to cover the costs of recording and mastering 10 songs.

NOTE: The limited edition vinyl version of my first album "Honey I..." comes with a music download card so if you do not own a record player, you can still listen to the album!

About Uncertain Futures: Uncertain Futures will be in the same style as the more shoegazery songs on Honey I. I will also be making a more focused effort on delving into the territory of early Jesus and Mary Chain and early Sonic Youth (Bad Moon Rising specifically) while still retaining my own musical sensibilities and aesthetics.
