Hello Contributors,
Welcome to my final push for creating a lasting and significant career as an artist in the music industry. Having honed my craft as a writer and musician over the years, I believe I’m well positioned with respect to my music as well as my industry contacts to make an impact in the music world. To get to this point I’ve invested my own money, time and effort and now I ask you to join me for the exciting part. Music is my true passion and I’m committed to taking it to the next level.

HOW I WILL USE YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS:
-Complete my ten song record: Why ten songs? Record Labels, domestic and abroad are looking for at least 43 minutes of viable content to ensure that the artist can support a tour. My current progress: I have four songs that are completed, three that require mixing and mastering and three more that are ready for tracking.
-Launch my website: craigmatthewmusic.com is close to completion but still requires minimal development in order to launch.
-Complete my second music video: I have one Video completed and half the footage for a second has already been shot. I have one more day of filming scheduled for December 14th at which time the second Video will be ready for editing.
-Copyright the songs for release: When the songs are used commercially they are required to be protected.
With full funding I aim to complete all of this by December 30, 2017.
