      Hi Margery,

      We will definitely keep you posted, I am certain we will need some extra muscle and elbow grease. As soon as we complete kickstarter and receive our pledged $$$$ we will let you know and maybe you can help with some of that painting, flooring or lighting. You are a Jewel!!! Thank You!

      Hello Nayana,

      Thank you for becoming a Backer for Golden Feather. We look forward to the completion of our project and with your support we can see our dream come true. You must be sure to visit Golden Feather when you are in New Orleans.

      Thank you for your comment on the song - It was written by Shaka Zulu who is the co-founder of Golden Feather. He also has a band called Soul Feather which is a merge of music from the cultures of the Mardi Gras Indian, Second Line and West Africa. The song is apart of a cd that will be coming soon.

      Hello. I just became a backer!

      I am part of MarchFourth Marching Band (from Portland, oregon) and we were definitely inspired by the pageantry of Mardi Gras and the New Orleans cultural traditions. I hope the next time we come through town we can come visit your new shop!

      By the way, I love the song that plays in the background of your video. Can you tell me the name of the band and the song? Thanks!
