About this project
HELP SUPPORT MY UPCOMING TOUR!
Ok. So, at last I have a tour booked for London and Paris! I will be playing several shows at places like Bull + Gate in London and Point FMR in Paris. Because I am an independent artist who is signed to a small, humble indie label, I don't have enough tour support to cover all of my expenses. Thankfully, I (hopefully) have luck on my side, as well as amazing fans, supporters, and friends.
In return for your help, I am offering you rewards: Let's have a meal! Come to LA! Wanna meet my cats? Bonzai and FUBAR are lovebugs! Maybe you wanna Skype chat with the band? Be the first to hear an unreleased demo? How about we come play a show at your house? Or maybe you want some handmade, one of a kind tee shirts? Or, I'll reward you with my favorite pair of knee socks:
The money raised here on KickStarter will be used to fund travel (trains, planes, and automobiles) so that I can get to London --> Paris --> back home. l will also need to eat while I'm there, as well as rent music equipment/gear (amps, speakers, drums--this stuff is real pricey!), get some merch made in order to have something to sell at the shows, and pay the dudes in the band who will be playing with me. If I have any money left over, it will be used for lodging. Otherwise, I plan on couch surfin' for the duration of my travels; like the proper lady I am!
If I don't reach my goal of $3,000, I won't get ANY of the money. It is ALL OR NOTHING!
