Pandora Celtica is getting ready to record their next CD, and they need YOUR help to reach their goals!

Pandora Celtica is releasing our 5th CD, Faerie Revel. We have been busily writing songs, rehearsing them, tearing them apart and putting them back together, developing those magical harmonies you all love, and that tribal drumbeat that holds it together.

This next CD encompasses a year of songs that we have written, collected, put our creativity into, rehearsed and performed - this music is our love. And we want to do it right, not record them in someone's basement with Radio Shack clearance microphones, but in a professional studio with sound technicians who know their craft. With Kickstarter, and your help, we have a chance to make this a reality.

 What songs will be on it? It will be a mix of reworked traditional pieces like: "Sixteen Tons", "Maid in Bedlam", and "When Johnny Comes Marching". Original pieces like "Sailor Boy" and even a special song written for the Browncoats!

To make that a reality, we need your help. 

We are an independent band, so we don't have the backing of any gigantic record companies.While this does mean that we have control over the creative process of making our music, which we like… it also means we have to use our own money to fund our albums. We need money to pay for a real studio, all the recording and mixing and mastering fees. We'll need money for the artwork and photography for the album cover and inserts. We'll need money to upload them to our CD producer, and for the initial shipment of the finished product. And of course, we'll need money to send those CD's - and all our other prizes, gifts, and trinkets - to you, our backers, our fans, our friends.

If we go over our goal, please don’t stop giving! Every additional dollar will help us expand and improve on the product. We have a whole list of things that overages will go to including extra songs, more disk art, paying to have raw studio time video’d and shared with our investors, producing professional videos for the songs on the album and, if enough money is raised, even touring the country!!!

PLEASE!

Help us make our dream a reality, and share it with us! Be assured you will not be disappointed to be part of this project. Backers will get behind-the-scenes looks at the process of making this album, and we'll be recording everything! There will be sneak peeks at our studio antics, and those songs you've never heard. And of course, you'll get awesome music (before anyone else!), glitter-covered gifts from the band, maybe even a private concert!

The more you get involved, and the more you get others involved, the bigger this project will become. We’d love to have Faerie Revel be a full multimedia experience, but we cannot do that without you. We truly love creating fabulous music for you. Your help means we will be able to share more of our music and magic than we ever have before. Because of Kickstarter you have a chance to work with us to bring faerie magic into this mortal world. 

We want to thank you for listening to our Kickstarter, for sharing it with your friends, and for pledging to help us. Thank you for supporting us, our dream, our music.... Our glitter obsession.

And remember, Kickstarter is an all or nothing platform so please, please, PLEASE! Spread the word!

Thank you for believing in us.

  • What this means is that you get the reward listed, and then everything that's at the $50 and lower. So if you choose one of the $100 rewards, you get that reward and then the shirt, signed CD, signed print, digital copy of the CD and the thank yous.
