So, we crossed the halfway mark a couple of days ago and I'm incredibly thankful. I can't tell you how humbling it is to receive daily emails filled with support from all of you. In recognition of this, I recorded a little cover song that I hope you'll enjoy. Just a token of my appreciation.
(enter the text box of sarcasm)
It's not a very well-known song, a deep cut, if you will. A few of you may have heard it on your local independent radio station, but I really doubt it.
(exit box)
I really cannot thank you enough. There will be more updates like this in the future to mark milestones and celebrate what we've accomplished. If you have any suggestions for future cover songs, feel free to send me a message via the "ask a question" button on the Kickstarter page.
Many thanks to my friend Austin Atwood for his avant-garde camera work.
This project successfully raised its funding goal on November 11.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 1: Receive a delightful video thank-you that may or may not include dancing. Also, the assurance that you are awesome.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 2: Get a digital copy of Matt Wright's first record one fortnight in advance (fortnight = two weeks = 14 days = fun-to-say) plus, all previous rewards.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 3: Procure a digital copy of the record in advance and receive a hand-written thank-you note containing a used guitar pick, signed lyric-sheet/chord-chart, and the scent of the studio. You will also receive an unreleased EP of B-sides and secret rap battles. All previous rewards included.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 4: All previous rewards plus a hand-illustrated, physical copy of the record, burned with love straight from my computer.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 5: All previous rewards plus an mp3 of a personalized song addressing a previously discussed topic of your choice, immortalizing a specific moment in time, and perhaps, encapsulating your own, unique human experience.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 6: All previous rewards and a thirty-minute Skype concert/date/rap session.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 7: 300 dollars, 300 miles. I will come to your house and make you my own world-famous pancake brunch for dinner, followed by an acoustic house show featuring the song I wrote about you. Please allow time for scheduling. Also, includes all previous rewards minus the Skype date, because frankly, that will be useless for you.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 8: This package includes all previous rewards (except KMHP#7) and an Executive Producer's credit on the album, plus a personal thank-you in the liner notes. Also, do you plan on coming to see me at one of my shows? Good, you and a friend will get in free, no matter what. Just give me a heads up.
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 9: Who are you? I love you. We will have a full-band show at your house plus my famous pancakes-for-dinner. Invite your friends and enjoy a night with me as your personal musician. If you're within 300 miles, I'll be there ASAP. Outside of this range, just pay for travel, or wait until I make it to your city on tour. Includes all previous rewards (excluding KMHP's #6 and #7).
Kickstart My Heart Pledge 10: I will write a song about you. It will be a hidden track on the record. End of story. You are incredible. The world (or at least my marginally smaller audience) deserves to hear of your greatness. Includes KMHP#9 and the added bonus that I will do anything for you. Want me to follow you around for a day while I'm in town and write the soundtrack to your life? Want me to clean your house? Let me know, Producer.

I am a Nashville-based, Atlanta-bred, momma's boy, just trying to make some good, honest music, loving Jesus and people in doing it. I'm finishing school and preparing to go where music leads - hopefully to your city or neighboring villages. Welcome to the ground floor. Click below to find out/hear some more. You rule.
Oh, Yeah!!! Praying for the funds to keep coming in. Love you! Granmom
