Make Earthtones History: Support our National Mission
Donation protected
Over the last year and a half, music has become my all-consuming obsession. My life has been reinvigorated and filled with the passion I felt the first time I held a microphone. With the growth of my band Skinny Hendrixx & The Earthtones, and the response we've gotten, I feel incredibly optimistic about the future of this endeavor.
My previous campaign raised $5,649 which we were able to use to:
- Launch my Daybreak album (my first solo project in nearly 10 years!)
- Launch our online merch store
- Release a video for Pink Lemonade by Skinny Hendrixx and Grub
- Release a video for Warm Air by Skinny Hendrixx and Grub
- Release a video for A Year or So by Skinny Hendrixx, and Theodore Von
- Release our Sign Hill Studios video for A Year or So with The Earthtones
- Release our Sign Hill Studios video for Darlin' Love with The Earthtones
- Film our upcoming Sign Hill Studios video for So Comfortable with The Earthtones
- Film our upcoming Live from the Loft video with The Earthtones
- Film our official video for Body Language with The Earthtones and were able to have it directed by legendary filmmaker Jamie DeWolf
- Record, mix, and master upcoming single Darlin' Love with The Earthtones
- Record, mix, and master upcoming single Sugar Free with The Earthtones
- Record, mix, and master upcoming single Body Language with The Earthtones
- Record my upcoming single Hold Me by Skinny Hendrixx featuring LaRussell, and Michael Marshall. Two of the Bay Area's biggest artists.
We believe strongly in this music, and believe it deserves to be spread as far, and wide as possible. Gaining visibility while maintaining your artistic integrity in this modern era of music is increasingly difficult. That's where you come in!
With your support, we'd like to accomplish the following goals:
- Record, mix, master, and release our debut Skinny Hendrixx & The Earthtones album. ($4,000)
- Hire a publicist to help us achieve national recognition through press, blogs, and news publications. ($3,000)
- Hire a publicist to help us access nationwide college radio broadcasting. ($3,000)
- Hire a design firm to aid us in building out creative campaign strategy, digital branding, and content production. ($1,500)
- Invest in marketing/playlisting for our album once complete ($1,000)
I've discussed this strategy with my network of industry professionals, and we agree that this will allow us to get the exposure we need to achieve the next level of success that we are looking for to set up tours, play some of the country's premier festivals, and have a fighting chance at some level of commercial success.
I will be tapping every resource I possibly can, and working diligently to through every legal, ethical, and moral channel I can come up with to raise capital, but if we work together, I believe we can be unstoppable.
Join me, and The Earthtones in our nationwide takeover. Let's spread that love music to the far reaches of the earth!
