Hey! Steve and Josh here from the Ahern Brothers. Thanks for dropping by and checking out our pozible campaign.
This album completely took us by surprise. Although we’ve been performing and touring together for a few years now, we had never written together or even discussed the idea. I think that is what makes this album so special for us. It was an accident. It was unforced. The songs just came.
It began in August 2016, when we were fortunate enough to be gifted a trip to the USA. There we were, in beautiful California and Oregon – San Francisco sunsets, Yosemite waterfalls and bike riding in Portland. We met amazing people, heard many stories, and missed our loved ones. Within three weeks we had written an entire album. And now we want to share it with you!
The album has been recorded, mixed and mastered by the legendary Roger Bergodaz at Union St Studio in Melbourne. There’s also a tour of Australia and New Zealand in the pipeline. However, we need to pay for promotion and a publicity campaign, as well as the printing of the physical product (CDs/Vinyl) to sell at our shows. It would mean so much if you could help us get this album over the finish line!
If you check out the perks on the right —-> you’ll notice a whole bunch of rewards and ways you can help. If you have any questions please email us at theahernbrothers@gmail.com
The funds raised will go towards the printing and pressing of the Album (Vinyl and CD) as well as the Promotion and Publicity of the Album release and National Tour.
Publicity campaign for Album – $4500
CD Production – $1061.50
Vinyl production – $1938.50
Total = $7500
Any additional money raised will go towards covering the remaining costs of Graphic design, Touring and Publicity.
The challenge for us is coming up with the necessary funds to get this Album printed, pressed and properly released with a professional publicity campaign. We’ve covered the recording and engineering costs and are absolutely thrilled with the result, now we just need your help to get it over the finish line! Our dream was to write an album, record it live, and to one day hear it back on vinyl. Our dream is to also tour Australia and the world and share these songs on a stage near you; if you donate to our campaign, you will be directly helping us to get there!
We’re incredibly excited to share this Album with you.
Steve and Josh (The Ahern Brothers)
