After 20 years, indie songstress releases album #10, hopes to promote disc professionally to radio and press.

This album is my 10th full-length disc, and the first with my compatriettes The Soubrettes. It's sort of a hybrid theatre piece/indie rock record. We think it's good work and want to hire professionals to promote it to radio and press. 

My own experience has shown that, when professionals do this work (as opposed to me doing it myself), it's much more likely that the songs will be played on the radio and listened to by journalists. Makes sense! 

Patience, inspiration, ingenuity, Peter Matjelic, Tim Neal and Jennie Lowe Stearns have gotten us this far (thanks forever, friends!). Now we're looking for funding for a modest but serious promotional campaign. Both quotes are phenomenally fair, and hope to capitalize on my history in the business. 

Six weeks radio promo: $1800

Six weeks press promotion: $1500 (friend discount from industry vet)

Kickstarter percentage of $3000= $200
