Happy Memorial Day to our US fans and thanks so much to everyone for your pledges towards our fourth album Kickstarter!
We're 48 hours away from the end our fourth album fundraising campaign and we're VERY happy to report that we managed to hit our funding goal over the weekend with 109 backers (and we've even gotten several more pre-orders since then!). Woo hoo!!
This means we've successfully secured all the funding pledged so far and WILL be heading into the recording studio in June!!! We're on track to have a new album ready for Fall tours in Canada and the East Coast, and have never been more ready to make an album we hope you'll all fall in love with! These remaining hours also mean that we still have a chance to inch towards our stretch goal of $7500, which is what our last two albums actually cost to record, mix, master, and manufacture. So, if you were thinking about pre-ordering the new CD, or had your eye on a different reward and just haven't gotten around to pledging yet, there's still time to help us out and receive that gift (until May 30th at noon Pacific time). Anything pledged now we get to keep, so feel free to continue pledging and spreading the word! We'll be using these funds to help us cover studio time, CD manufacturing, hopefully some promotion (because otherwise it's impossible to make a "hit" record), and it's just nice to have a bit of a buffer going into something like this to help cover any unforeseen hiccups that might arise along the way.

We are VERY happy, incredibly appreciative of everyone's support, and eager to get into the studio (hopefully even next week!!). Thank you all so much for believing in us!! We'll be giving newsletters a rest now for a few months, but we'll let you know when the new album has a release date. If you'd like to keep up with our progress, hear demos along the way, etc., please "like" our Facebook page, or follow us on Instagram or Twitter.
