In 2024, I released Ask Me About My Dumb Band Volume 1 —a compilation featuring Boston-area bands. Each participating band received twenty pins and twenty cassettes to sell at shows, while all digital sales supported the nonprofit Boston Raising Powerful Musicians (BRPM).

I created this out of love for the bands, the Boston music scene, and a desire to build community—hoping the participating bands (including my own, Double Star ) would reach new listeners.

With your help, I plan to release another compilation in 2025. Your contribution will cover costs like audio mastering, cassette production, pin manufacturing, and mailing expenses. I plan to handle the graphic design (as I did for Volume 1) and fellow local musician Austin Arroyo has joined me to assist with curation and coordination. Any amount helps bring this project to life and support the local music scene.

Thanks for considering a contribution. Whether you donate or share this campaign, you’re helping make something meaningful happen. Let’s make Ask Me About My Dumb Band, Volume 2 a reality!

Thank you,

David Kurimsky
