As many of you already know, our band, Kendálin, headed into the studio this past summer to start recording our second CD. We are very excited to be getting some of the music we've been working on for the last couple of years recorded so we can share it with the larger world.
The catalyst for starting this recording project now was a long-time fan who came to us and offered to help fund the undertaking. His generous donation will cover about a third of the cost of the project. With that spark, we got inspired to consider how we might put together enough money to get this done, and we realized that there were likely lots of people out there who would be willing to support this undertaking.

So, we are launching a Kickstarter campaign
We've thought up some fun gifts we can offer in exchange for donations - the CD (signed or not) and download cards, of course, but also the lyrics to the title song from Rising hand-written and suitable for framing, a chance to sit in on a rehearsal, a Kendálin-themed tote bag (with art created by Alex Atallah), a house concert in your home (local folks only), and others. We hope you'll be excited to be part of the project, and to invite others who you think will love this music to join in and help make it happen.
In about two weeks, we will send you an email announcing that the Kickstarter is up and running and inviting you to give.

Prefer to make a donation direct to us?
If for any reason you would prefer to make a donation outside the Kickstarter process/platform, please let us know. We are happy to offer you the same gifts in return that we will be offering via kickstarter (and it will save us the fees associated with kickstarter).
It would be especially helpful to know if you want to do that before we launch the campaign, so we can adjust our goal to reflect your donation.
You can reach us, as always, at Tasha@Kendalin.com, or by phone at 503-788-2333.
