Kelley McRae Kickstarter
Kelley and husband/guitarist Matt completed the 2011 tour and settled for a time in Tennessee, where they worked on a new album (Kelley's third), chock full of songs inspired from their time on the road. "A Kansas City Living Room and a Kitchen Full of Snacks", perhaps? Oh, probably not... :-)
To complete the project and get the CD manufactured, Kelley has a Kickstarter project set up. Kickstarter is a terrific way for artists to connect with their fans, and allow their fans to be backers for their projects and provide the funds for the artists to complete their work. I'm a big fan of the Kickstarter philosophy - it's a social network of fans who can fund the artists at any level they can afford. The artists repay the fans with perk packages based on the amount contributed. All the details are on the Kickstarter sites. Kelley is the fourth project I've backed - two Christmas projects from Sam Billen, one by Jessica Frech, and now Kelley's new album.
I love Kelley's music. She is a gifted songwriter and an amazing, talented singer. She and Matt give us music from the heart - you can hear it in their performances. I was a Day 1 backer on Kickstarter, and am anxiously awaiting the new album.
So - here's your chance to be a backer for Kelley. Now through April 3, 2012, Kelley's Kickstarter project is accepting fund committments. She has some fab stuff for everyone who contributes. The link to her project follows (and is at the top of the post, too, for your convenience). Please check out Kelley's music and go to Kickstarter and be a backer. You'll feel like a record mogul, just a little bit :-)
