We're almost there! We only have background vocals left to finish. We also have $800 $725 left to raise for mixing and mastering. We've already raised $1700! Thanks so much to everyone who has helped us out already--we couldn't do this without you. Just 16 more $50 donations and we've met our goal. Your donation will get you a CD before anyone else as well as some free unreleased tracks. You'll also have our eternal gratitude.
We know this is a terrible time to ask anyone for money. If you can't give $50, any amount will help. If you can't give money, that's no big deal. Thanks for supporting us with your thoughts and prayers.
You use the donate button below. Or, you can send your donation via snailmail. Just email for directions.
Thanks. Aaron.
The Bootleg Preachers need your help! We've been working hard on our new album for some time now, recording in basements, and bathrooms, and sanctuaries. Things are sounding good. To make this album come alive, we're going to need some help mixing, mastering, and pressing. That costs money, and money is something that's just not laying around.
The Bootleg Preachers are in the studio (Matt's house and Aaron's house) recording a new album. They're not playing out much right now, spending their time laying down tasty tracks for posterity.
A Glorious Mess will be released digitally (of course), but also on the old school CD. It will be packaged in an even older school book (albeit a small book). There will be stories about the songs, recording notes, drawings, pictures and more.
A great big thank you to everybody who came out to sing in the choir last Saturday. We had a great time and came away with some great tracks. Just in case you're curious, here's a quick mix of the breakdown from Rise and Shine...
I am humbled at the response we've had to our plea for help. We need $2500 for mixing and mastering and we are halfway there in just over a week. Right on time too, because we need to pay half up front and the first songs are going out at the end of the week. Thank you so much to all who have helped us out. It means a lot for so many different people to help us out. This project has been in the works for years now. It's nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel. There's still plenty to do, but things are coming together nicely thanks to great friends who are playing for free and so many of you who have helped financially. I'm truly grateful.
Hello Everyone,
As you may or may not know, I've been recording an album for over a year now. The band and I have done all of the recording ourselves in basements and bedrooms and it sounds really good. We've lined up some great guys in Nashville to mix and master the project, but we need some help. $2500 will cover the cost of mixing and mastering. Actually, we just need 50 people to give $50. To add to the thrill, we need at least half of the money by Feb 1st. This was a leap of faith on my part, and I believe it's going to work out. If you would would like to help and you have some funds available, we would be grateful for your donation. As a thank you, you will receive the cd before anyone else. You'll also receive immediate download of some free mp3 demos. You can donate through the paypal donate link to the left (you don't need a paypal account, just a credit card). Or you can donate with a check and the US Postal Service. Make sure to include a note with your address so we'll know where to ship the CD. If you can't swing $50, even $10 or $1 helps. And while we can't get you a CD for a dollar, you'll still get some free mp3s. And if you're feeling remarkably generous, we won't stop you from giving more than $50 either. I realize things are tight for a lot of folks right now, so if you can't send money, send us a note to let us know how you're doing. Thanks for your help in our endeavor to make good music.
