Olivia Barton's First Tour!!!

Hello to my beautiful community! Olivia here!

I am going on my first ever tour this fall. WAHOO! I'm opening up some shows across the country for a friend's incredible band called Illuminati Hotties. We are traveling from Phoenix, AZ to Toronto, Canada! This is an opportunity to play bigger venues than I ever have, ultimately connecting me to real humans in real rooms that could love my music and become long-term fans. This is just the beginning, but it's a huge step in an exciting direction!

So far, I have funded all of my creative projects myself. Because this is a bigger undertaking, I've decided to come to my community for help.❤️ For those of you that don't know, touring is very expensive! Though I do get paid for each show, it does not offset the large expenses. That's why I'm here! This money will fund:

Just those things add up to about $3k! The money I make from each show will fund gas, food, and lodging.

OK. Now that the money stuff is out of the way, I just have to tell you: you mean so much to me. I mean it. You have supported me already by listening to my songs, sharing them with your friends, and telling me what they mean to you. Each of you are a sweet little patch in this big weird quilt I'm stitching. It takes days, months, years, $1, $5, $500, one small and intentional step at a time, to build a career of making and sharing art in a way that fulfills me to my core. Nothing else is quite like it, and I'm thankful (most days lol) that this is the life I am living and pursuing. It's quite strange and beautiful and I could not do it without you.
