We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on December 20, 2011.

Mail-out and CD release

Update #5 · May 24, 2012 · comment

Hey everyone!  I just want to say thank you again for supporting this project!  The CD has been released and is doing really well.

By now you should have received a package that includes your backer rewards. 

If you were to receive the acoustic download or a t-shirt, no worries.  There has just been a few delays in production and we'll have those out to you ASAP.  Those who are to receive a DVD or music videos will receive them closer to the end of the year as it will take a while for production.

If you have not received your rewards in the next few days either message me or make sure that you responded to the survey with all the required information.  International shipping may take a few weeks for arrival.

Thanks again!

The David Project: More Drum Tracking

Update #2 · Nov 21, 2011 · comment

So things have been going fantastically amazing over here at studio930!  We've been going at it nonstop to be sure and get out the best sounding album possible.  I wanted to give you another update of us finishing up drum tracking, but my update is already out-of-date!  Haha.  When I shot the video we had only just broken the half-way mark to our minimum goal but now we're already 4/5 of the way there!  So keep telling your friends.  Every single penny goes to the creation and telling of this amazing story.  The more that is raised beyond the minimum goal, then the better (and sooner) we'll be able to tell it.

It's been an amazing blessing to be recording a story of such love and hope.  I can't thank you enough for making this possible, nor can I wait to share it with the world!  In the meantime you can be following my blog at coopertheband.wordpress.com.

The David Project: Kickstarter Update 1

Update #1 · Nov 15, 2011 · comment

WOW.  I cannot believe the amazing response to this kickstarter!  I don't know how I can ever thank you for all your support.  It means so much to me.  And it goes beyond just backing the project, I have seen people share this project all over the web!  On facebook, in blogs... Thank you so much!

We've almost reached the minimum goal which is awesome!  Don't forget though that the minimum goal only funds recording the album and one video.  In order to put together the entire "YouTube Album" idea we really need to raise upwards of $8,000.

So keep on posting on facebook and telling your friends.  It seems that everyday we go up just a little bit more.  The more funding we get, the higher quality product we're able to release.

Thanks again and I cannot wait to share this project with you!

Cooper
