Update #4: Digital Downloads, Hard Copies...
Hey Guys!
i'm so excited that The Song of Songs is available for download as of today. If you haven't gotten a BandCamp download code yet, you will be shortly.
Physical copies of the CD & vinyl were just proofed today, are being sent to the printer, & i will have them in my hand & ready to ship by the end of October.
oh! & demos - for those of you that ordered them - will go out next week. unfortunately many of them don't exist in high quality formats.
thanks again for all your help!

Update #3: We did it! We really did it!
Guys! it's happening! it's really happening!
thank you so much for pledging - - every single one.
over the last week - once it became clear i was going to clear my funding goal - i've started getting everything prepared for the release. realistically the release will probably be in September or October here in NYC, although i expect i'll get the albums shipped before then.
meanwhile i'll be sending up periodic updates here about the art, the upcoming release, etc.
but again, thanks so much! i really couldn't have done it without yall.

Andrew,
Yaaaaay! What a gratifying and wonderful way to fund a project. You are a fantastic songwriter and deserve the support, even though I know you'll spend it all on booze. (I'm sorry I was broke when I got the first Kickstart message and only sent a lousy ten bucks--but I sent some your way when I was flush, so I don't feel like a total jerk.)
Those niceties aside, I love your music and can't wait to hear the the finished track.
Best to Evan and Sarah! Maybe Olivia will get a chance to meet you soon and talk about producing one of her r&b tunes, or at least helping you drink all the donation money.
Congrats again for the good vibes all around on this project, Andrew!
Kind regards,
Martin Olson (aka Olivia's Pa)

Update #2: closing in with 5 days left!
hey guys!
just wanted to let you all know that thanks to your fantastic generosity, i'm only $1,200 away from my goal with 5 days to go.
i've added one reward: a video cover of your choice that ALSO includes all the others as well.
last but not least, please pass the project around to your friends, countrymen, & fellow fans so i can make sure that this thing gets funded!
thanks,
andrew
Update #1: Thanks you so much! & Half-way mark.
Hey everyone!
just wanted to send a huge Huge HA-YOOJ! thank you to everyone who has backed the Song of Songs project so far. i've been amazed at everyone's generosity, from complete strangers to folks i've known for a long, long time.
the campaign is half over (15/30 days) & i'm just under the half-way mark of what's needed to get the project funded. if you're feeling sassy, please pass the project along to others who you think might be interested in the record & the music. i think in the internet world this is called making something go "viral."
oh! & last but not least, if you didn't hear it, my project was featured on an NPR story about kickstarter: http://www.npr.org/2011/05/31/136590974/arts-funding-site-gets-kickstart-from-business-bids
