About this project
After working with record labels on every album I've released up to now I'm really excited to finally be taking the plunge into Self-Releasing this new one!! I know it will connect me more directly to the people who care most about what I'm doing, and I'm really looking forward to that. I'm also really proud of all the songs that I've written for this record and can't wait for everyone to hear the finished product.
Every dollar you give and then some will go into this album: Recording costs, Musicians, Mastering expenses, Artwork/Layout design costs, Manufacturing the CDs and Vinyl LPs (LP records aint cheap yo!), and finally promoting the record when it's all ready to go.
I can't tell you guys how lucky I feel to have been playing music for a living as long as I have already, and I really really appreciate you guys being a part of this project to keep me going. I know I couldn't be doing this without you and am humbled by how many of you have bought CDs, come to shows, sent me amazing messages, or even just listened to some of my songs. I can't thank you enough for all of your support.
much love!
Rocky
