About this project
NEW FOOLS FOR ROWAN ALBUM AND MUSIC VIDEO!
We've had a great first 2 years of existence...having been fortunate enough to perform concerts with Evanescence...Sick Puppies...Trapt...Halestorm and many more. We've also been blessed to make many new fans as we've toured all over the United States.
Since it's been 2 years since we've released a new cd and a new music video...our goal is to do both in 2012. We've already started to record...but since we act as our own record label...and the fact we've used just about every penny we had to go on tour last year...we're now looking for a way to continue. Thankfully...something like Kickstarter exists to help indie artists like us!
We're hoping to receive at least $30,000 worth of pledges to finish the cd and film a music video. Our first cd cost nearly $50,000 to finish...and our "Dead" music video cost nearly $13,000...so, as you can see...we're only asking for as much as we need to finish what we've started...and we'll cut every corner we can to make sure the money you pledge is spent wisely. We know if our fans are willing to pledge that amount...we can promise to bring them an incredible project in return. Every dollar above that amount will go towards 1. Recording more songs for the album 2. Filming a better video 3. Tour support so we can perform in more cities across the country 4. Promote the music
We feel like we have some great rewards to offer...so please look them over and pledge what you can. Hopefully...we'll get to meet you soon and thank you in person!
FAQ
-
Well...you can, but you can't. Kickstarter only allows one item per account...but they tell us you can make as many accounts as you want so that you can pledge on as many rewards as possible!

"This band is arena-rock ready!" Those were the words of ReverbNation co-founder Lou Plaia during a Fools For Rowan concert with Halestorm. After a sold out show with Evanescence...along with tour dates with Sick Puppies, Trapt, Gin Blossoms, Adelitas Way, Art of Dying, Tonic, Candlebox and many more...it seems Lou's words were prophetic.
Less than 2 years after forming, Fools For Rowan has toured from coast to coast, wowing fans in Seattle, New York City, Miami, San Francisco, Nashville, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Chicago, Dallas, Portland, Atlanta, Austin...and everywhere in-between. For a young band just beginning to build a fan-base, FFR is definitely paying their rock-band dues, closing in on 100,000 miles of tour travel.
