Be a Part of "The Nocturnal Among Us"- my first "solo" record! - May 10, 2009
Dear friends and fans,
I am excited to announce that I will be releasing my first “solo” full-length record in late fall of this year. I have been working on these songs for over 2 years now, and I think they are my best work to date. I spent the better part of last year looking at studios and producers, and I am excited to have found a great team to work with. I am writing to ask for your help to make this record a reality, and get these songs out into the world.
I will be going into the studio with my backing band, now consisting of longtime drummer Eric Hastings and keyboard player Brooks Miner. We will be recording at the Great North Sound Society in Parsonsfield, Maine, an amazing space where artists such as Josh Ritter and Langhorne Slim recorded their most recent projects. We will be working with New York based producer JD Foster (Calexico, Laura Cantrell, Patty Griffin), Philadelphia-based engineer Geoff Hazelrigg , as well musicians from across the country to transform these songs into a cohesive and exciting record.
And that is where you come in! As many of you may know, the recording industry is changing rapidly and is a tough place to navigate. Independent artists such as myself have turned to a new source for help—the fans. Through pre-sales and fan donations, I hope to raise the 15,000 dollars needed to make this record.
Any amount of support –financial, emotional, or otherwise, is greatly appreciated. Every single donation will receive a thank you note, and there are a variety of other gifts at different levels.
Thanks so much for all your help!
