It’s true!
Until We’re Kings is set to record the full-length follow up
to the debut EP, “Heirs”.
THE PLAN
As of right now we are set to head out to Washington DC in
June to record with producer Justin Long (Straylight Run, US Royalty, the
Narrative) at his studio, The Powder Mill (thepowedermillstudio.com). Justin
produced the last UWK album and we’re excited that he’s on board for the new
project as well.
The music for this new album will revolve around songs that
have been written at Community Gospel Church to go along what God has been
teaching us through the Word. As Pastor Jordan has lead us through teaching
series’ we’ve constructed these songs to speak to the heart of those messages.
It has been a very cool experience to have our own music, to sing in our own
words, what we are going through as a local body of believers. So, for the next
step we want to put this music together in a way that allows us to pass this
music on to other churches, worship leaders, pastors, and ministries so that, hopefully, we can provide one more tool for God to use in communicating the
life-changing truth and beauty of faith in Jesus Christ.
THE PLEA
Unfortunately, the recording process is not cheap. We are
looking at putting together this entire project (recording, mixing, mastering,
pressing CD’s – EVERYTHING) for $7,000. This is relatively inexpensive for a
recording process, but its still a pricey adventure. So we need your help.
This is your chance to be a part of this new recording. Starting
on Monday we will have a page set up on kickstarter.com. Through this page you
can pledge to help us make this project a reality. We have different levels of
support that you can offer and with each level there are specific rewards that
you can take advantage of.
For example, if you pledge $15 to the project then you will
receive an autographed copy of the CD before it is officially released. If you
pledge $75 you receive the CD, a bonus collection of music, your name in the
liner notes, and a couple of digital downloads of the album that you can give
away as gifts to anyone you want. We will accept any level of assistance you
want to give from $15 to funding the whole project (if you want to pledge
$7,000 we’ll come up with some really special way to thank you.). You can think
of this as a pre-order of sorts.
Here’s the deal: you will only be responsible for your
pledge if we raise the whole amount. If we collect $6,999 in pledges then we
collect nothing. This is an all or nothing venture. So your help would be
greatly appreciated in two ways: financial support to the project; and spread
the word to anyone you can.
We are tremendously excited to get this music recorded and
put into your hands. We want to thank you in advance for helping to make this
happen. We love you all and hope we can work together in this new venture.
God bless!
