Hi There
My name is Frank MacCarthy and I'm a music producer who is managing this project for my friend Austeya, a very talented Indie Singer Songwriter based in London, originally from Lithuania.
The project is focused on launching her second EP this summer. Austeya currently has 5 songs in production. Initial reactions from a listener focus group are strong, and we selected the 5 most popular songs from an initial selection of 10. The single "Hurricane" will be released as a free download to generate interest & drive traffic to the EP.
Goal 1 - Raise funds for a Music Video for Hurricane
Goal 2 - Raise funds to pay for production, marketing and promotion services
What's in it for me - as a donor?
There are different ways to get involved in supporting this project, from buying products in the store to making monthly or one-off donations. All supporters will be invited to the EP Launch Party in June/July 2016 where we'll be filming her live performance and giving credit to everyone who has helped make this happen! + you will receive EP promotional gifts including a Deluxe CD and printed T-Shirt.
You can hear Austeya\'s music at https://soundcloud.com/austeya
