Hello all! If you haven’t heard of us before, our name is “Hey Thanks!”
For those who aren’t familiar, here’s a little back story of the band,
Starting in early 2016, the band formed in the Lafayette, La music scene while most of the members attended college. It wasn’t even a year in when the band realized that this was growing to become something special. Amongst playing warped tour, and performing with various acts, the band decided it was time to hit the road and really try becoming a touring band. After some member changes and a plan set with the first tour booked, the band bought a van and hit the road by the end of 2017.
The years after lead to many great opportunities and many more tours being booked. It seemed as though the projectory was only going up, and by the end of 2019, plans were set in place to record a first LP. Soon afterwards covid hit, and even through the unsure times the record had been successfully finished.
But as the year passed and shows stayed canceled due to covid, a lot of funds were diminished. We had pushed a lot of the budget we had for a record we wouldn’t be able to push out or play shows for.
By the beginning of 2021 it also seemed as though all hope for our current van was minimum as well. We ran a good 7 to 8 tours with countless runs included on this baby, but there are now too many problems for it to be worth the investment of fixing,
With lots of great opportunities coming up, super great announcements, and people that have shown us support all the way through, we ask that you help donate and continue pushing this dream of ours. And even if you can’t donate, spreading the word to others helps out too! We wouldn’t have come so far without the support already and this is probably the first and last gofundme we’re gonna have for something like this.
Much love
-ht crew
