Country western comedy band, Reformed Whores, are recording their first album y'all!
Update
Holy moly! Looks like we're makin' an album y'all, and it's all thanks to YOU! We're so very grateful to all of our donors. Your support has been overwhelming. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
If you were planning on donating, but hadn't gotten around to it yet, you can still be a part of COUNTRY WESTERN MUSICAL COMEDY HISTORY! Rest assured that every single dollar we make over our goal will go to very good use and help us make this the best album it can possibly be. We still have 2 days left in our campaign so how about this, if we make it to $15,000 we'll make an amazing music video to go along with our new album that you can share with your friends and say you helped make. We cannot wait to get this album into your hands so you can clap, sing, and laugh along!
Howdy!
We're Reformed Whores, the best country western comedy band this side of the Mason Dixon line. The past two years we've been performing all over New York City at notable venues such as Upright Citizens Brigade, The Peoples Improv Theater, The Creek and The Cave, and Carolines on Broadway, just to name a few. We've also been touring the country and performed at Chicago SketchFest and the Charleston Comedy Festival this year. This May you can catch us at The Ladies are Funny Festival in Austin, TX and the Piccolo Fringe Festival in Charleston, SC. And to top it all off, we've recently become a YouTube sensation with our viral video "I'm a Slut!"
Phew! We've been as busy as a one legged man in a kicking contest....But no matter where we go or what we do, one question always seems to follow us, "where can I buy your album?" Well shucks we don't have one yet. And truth be told, now that we're reformed we simply ain't got the funds to make a full-length album. But that's where YOU come in! We've started this Kickstarter campaign to once and for all raise the money that we need to get our much anticipated album out into the world and into your hands.
The plan!
We were fortunate enough to record one song at Vanity Sound in Williamsburg, Brooklyn this past February. Now with your help, we plan on heading back to the studio this spring with the same talented team as seen in our video. We know that $10,000 is a hell of a lot of money, but believe it or not, after the Kickstarter and Amazon fees, $10,000 is just the minimum we need to make this album the right way. Any amount we make over our goal will go straight into the making and promotion of the album. Here's the breakdown of expenses:
- Studio time and equipment rental
- Sound Engineer & Assistant
- 3 Professional Studio Musicians
- Music Director
- Mixing
- Mastering
- Pressing & Manufacturing CD's
- Publicist
If you donate today, you're not only helping us make a darn good album, you're helping spread the word about Reformed Whores! Thank you to all our friends, family, and fans. We certainly can't do this without you and we promise to make y'all real proud!
xoxo,
Reformed Whores
PS. Enjoy our viral hit 'I'm a Slut!"
