From the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean, help raise money for Nick Shattuck's Los Angeles debut of his EP, "Times Like These."

Five and a half years ago, I was standing amongst a crowd of several hundred college kids watching a local band rock a stage. I stood in awe watching the lead singer exhibit complete control over his band and his audience. Several drunken hours later the show ended, the crowd stumbled home, and I was left alone with one thought resonating in my head, “I WANT TO DO THAT’!!

       I've grown from braving my first shaky handed performances at open mics, traveling and opening acts all over the Midwest, to finally packing my bags and leaving everything I’ve built over the years to test my dedication and passion in one of the largest and cut throat musical cities in the world, LA!

        And now, my loyal and loving fans, friends, and family, I’m asking for your help. The time has come to put NEW music in your hands. I’ve written five new songs in the 3 months I’ve lived in California and all I want to do is record them, and get them to YOU!! However, as you saw in the video, I’m BROKE (I literally live in a garage).

       I need help financing this EP and I believe with the great rewards we are offering and with your generous donations, we can easily achieve our goal of raising $5000.00 in a 40 day time frame. The donations we receive will be used to record, press, and distribute the new EP, “Times Like These”. So, please, check out our rewards, donate whatever you can, and spread the word by sharing this project to your family and friends.

From the bottom of my heart, 
Thank You 
Love You
