Kickstarter

6 DAYS TO GO! + FREE DOWNLOAD!

It's pretty unbelievable that we've got such an outpouring of support so far. Thank you to all the backers who've supported this project. We still have $500 to go! And here's the SCARY part... if we don't raise the full $5,000, the project won't be funded at all. If you're visiting for the first time, I am raising money for three reasons.

1. First and foremost, I want to make more MUSIC. We're planning at least 5 new records released on CD, vinyl, cassette, and digital. By pledging your support, you'll get up to the first 3 releases sent to you and access to behind the scenes updates which are exclusively for backers. Think of it as a pre-order like you would the new Twilight book. Check out the sidebar to see what other rewards you can get for your pledge!

2. Activism. I was raised to get involved. Growing up in the punk-hardcore scene in PA showed me that music could be married with a cause. Inspired, I took up running benefit shows and went on to do event production for Invisible Children while organizing work shops, festivals, and touring in support of cancer research, ending human trafficking, addressing hunger and poverty, and countless other groups and causes. I'd like to continue this work and your support will enable me to.

3. Finally, the environment! It's so important that young businesses and established businesses alike (individuals too!) realize the responsibility they have to the environment. I'd like to green the way I tour through more efficient travel, reducing plastics, encorporating organic and post-consumer materials in my merch. As a socially conscious and creative human being, this is one of the most important things I can do to grow in a responsible, sustainable way.

So please share this project with your friends and family. And as a token of my appreciation for you visiting this page to learn more about what I'm doing this year, I'd like to share a new demo of mine called "Most of Everything" which you can download by clicking here. The song is featured in my Kickstarter video above and really speaks to some of my experiences this past year. I hope you like it. Thank you so much and take care!

love,
KOJI
