Indie band Stand Alone debut album

Donation protected
Stand Alone is an indie rock band in Yangon, Myanmar. In the past year Jun Ho, Zin Yu Aung, Young Woo and Max have made tremendous progress in pursuit of their dream: to release their first studio recording. 


They've performed at carnivals, festivals, and schools, and their hard work has made them very popular in the local communities around Yangon.

That's easy enough to do in many countries. But this is Myanmar, an impoverished country where until very recently independent musicians had to submit their lyrics to the government for "approval" before heading to the studio. 

But positive changes are happening every day in Myanmar, and now for the first time in sixty years its people are optimistic about the future and guys like Stand Alone are inspired and free to chase their dreams.

And they need your help.

The band lacks a standard set of drums, relying instead on a cajon and other improvised methods. The "studio" where they practice would be condemned in America. The studio they need to produce their debut album is expensive.

You can take a moment to view Stand Alone's Facebook page  and learn more about the guys, but here's the bottom line: for $1500 the guys can purchase drums and studio time and release their debut indie album. 

The GoFundMe site suggests we explain what this support will mean to Jun Ho, Zin Yu Aung, Young Woo and Max. That's easy: Stand Alone's band members live in a country where if you live on $4 a day then you are considered to be upper middle class.

Your support means everything. 

Thank you for taking the time to learn about Stand Alone, and thank you for any consideration and donations that you can send our way.
