AMY OBENSKI

The new album has been sent off to the man­u­fac­tur­ing house. And the Tshirts are just a hair away from being pressed. It’s really hap­pen­ing, folks! Tomor­row morn­ing I head out to Burn­ing Man and shortly after, Europe. My phone will be turned off from August 28th to Octo­ber 2nd. When I return we can start prepar­ing for the CD Release. If any­one wishes to reach me please send me an email. I’ll be post­ing as many updates here as pos­si­ble. Yay!

Tonight I’m doing a show at the ol’ Red Rock Cof­fee­house in Moun­tain View as a cel­e­bra­tion for the album fund­ing com­ing through. I’m happy to say Ted Framhein will be join­ing me on bass. Some of you may remem­ber Ted as my reg­u­lar bass player from back in the day. Well he’s still involved in the music. Actu­ally he played on the album too and he’s def­i­nitely mak­ing it out on Fri­day night. It will be a nice reunion. See you there!

I think I’m par­tially in shock. Yes­ter­day when I found out the album was 103% funded I did a cart­wheel and other tricks to express my joy. Now, I’m just sit­ting here, dumb­founded. So yes! You’ve read the news title cor­rectly, the album is 125% funded. I’ve reached my per­sonal goal of rais­ing $3000. This amount will really let the album shine and keep me stress free. I’m so grate­ful for all the sup­port. A mil­lion thank you’s to all who have pledged and all who have shown sup­port. I could not do this with­out you.

If you’re inter­ested in still being a part of this beau­ti­ful expe­ri­ence, you have until mid­night tonight (August 8th) to make your pledge. After that, you’ll have to wait to buy the album when it’s released on Novem­ber 1st. And you’ll prob­a­bly have to pay extra for ship­ping plus the t-shirt price will go way up as well.

That said, it’s time to cel­e­brate! I think I’ll have a cel­e­bra­tion show this Fri­day, in Moun­tain View. Yes, that’s what I’ll do. Please come join me if you’re in the area! Click here for info

My new album is almost fin­ished. The mix­ing is all done and I just need to decide on song order before I send it to be mas­tered and pressed. I’m rais­ing the money to fin­ish it and I need to reach my goal of $2500 by August 8th to col­lect the dona­tions. In exchange for your pledge you will receive all kinds of cool things and in most cases spend less money if you buy them now, in advance. Please check out my Kick­starter Page to make a pledge. Thanks!
