COMING OUT OF THE DARK WITH A NEW ALBUM
Welcome, friend! I’m so glad you are here to support me as I record my new album Out Of The Dark, which will be produced by Kevin Bowe. Kevin has many accolades but is most well known for his work with prominent rock and blues artists, including Paul Westerberg and The Replacements, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and the inimitable Etta James. He has the perfect sensibility for this project, and I can’t wait for us to bring these new songs to life with the help of some of the best musicians in the country!
I decided to call this record Out Of The Dark because I feel it signifies so much of what I have been going through since I produced my first solo record Hard To Love. Over the past two years I have grown and gone through a process of self-discovery that has led me to understand the person and artist that I am meant to be. These songs reflect that journey, documenting the joy, pain, love and struggles with relationships and mental health issues. In the end, the picture I want to paint with my music is one of positivity — the belief that we can be successful no matter the road life has put us on and that there is a light of hope at the end of the tunnel and, after the hard night, joy in the morning. These are songs that are personal and meaningful, and I cannot wait to share them with you.
WHAT DOES MY PLEDGE DO?
By pledging to fund this album, you become my partner. All the money raised through this campaign will go towards production, studio costs, art design, paying musicians and manufacturing albums – in short, it all goes toward the music. By supporting this project, you are an integral part of launching my career to the next level, which continues on an exciting trajectory, thanks to great press, a busy tour schedule and incredible fan support like yours.
The music business is not what it once was, and independent musicians are doing the best they can to continue to create meaningful art to make the world a more beautiful place. But, we need your help to do that. Please find a level of support that suits you–every penny makes a difference! If you could also share the campaign with your friends and family that means the world as well.
Thank you so much for supporting this project, and please follow along for updates on Facebook and Instagram!
The biggest challenge in this case is the financial one. Making a great record requires a lot of cost for studio time, producing products, paying musicians, paying publicists for print and radio, paying for marketing materials and more. With your help, we can overcome this financial challenge! We are committed to making this record great no matter how much time it takes, I believe in making art that matters to me and to my community. My commitment to you is to produce something you will be proud of supporting.
