I'm offering vinyl for the first time ever, and you can add it on to any tier!
If we get 100 pre-orders, I'll do a full vinyl pressing via Burlington Record Plant.
If we don't get to 100 pre-orders, all vinyl orders will be high-quality custom lathe cuts.
Vinyl is expected to ship 8-12 weeks after release.

HOW MUCH DOES RECORDING REALLY COST? ISN'T MAKING MUSIC FREE? WHY ARE YOU RAISING MONEY?
WRITING songs is free. Recording, producing, mixing, mastering, duplicating, promoting, and marketing them in order to have a sustainable career is not! My goal with this pre-sale is to crowdfund enough to make back a small percentage of my total costs last year to bring this album to life. My crowdfunding goal of $5,000 is well below my actual costs (and in fact just barely covers marketing and promotion costs), and with COVID-19 taking away all live performance income, every single contribution helps make this career sustainable.
A listener astutely asked if there was a distinction between someone being worth only certain brands of whisk(e)y upon listening to Not Worth The Whisky. I thought it was pretty clever and decided to name the tiers accordingly. Please note, NO WHISK(E)Y IS INCLUDED AT ANY LEVEL.
Possibly! Contact me here and let me know what it is you'd like to bundle together, and I'll figure out how to make it work. Then we'll do a virtual tip jar contribution for your custom tier! - or if it's a popular request, I might make it official!
The pre-sale campaign will officially end on release day - Friday, March 19th. The actual crowdfunding campaign will end on Wednesday, March 31st, and all orders placed between March 19th-31st will be shipped upon receipt (except vinyl).
Pre-orders are expected to start shipping on 3/19/2021.
Download codes will be released on 3/12/2021.
Vinyl is expected to ship around 8-12 weeks after the orders close.
Orders placed between 3/19-3/31 will be shipped upon receipt.
You'll be charged at checkout. Unlike using other crowdfunding platforms that charge at the end of the campaign, your card will be charged as soon as you place your order, since there's no waiting to see if I hit a threshold. ALL support counts!
Thankfully, not much, to be honest! Since I'm able to create the campaign myself - with ZERO overhead fees from outside platforms - EVERY SINGLE contribution counts and goes right to me. Rest assured your support means the world to me, and I'm thankful the support is going right back into creating amazing music and experiences for you instead of to administrative fees.
