Off To A Great Start and Everybody Makes The Cut!

Dear friends,

As some of you know, last week I launched my Indiegogo New Album funding campaign! And guess what? We’ve raised 15% thanks to many of you! So far so good! Thanks to those who have supported the campaign and believe in this new album! I could not have gotten this far without you.

Behind the scenes we are making decisions regarding what songs exactly will be on the album, and who will play on each song. There is a good chance we will have string arrangements on many of the songs, but not all of them. Drums on most. But not all. These are the kinds of things we are thinking about now.

If you want to help make this album happen, but need a little extra nudge, there is this: anyone who contributes before Sept 1 will be invited to a listening party at our apartment in November, with margaritas and Peter’s famous hummus, where we will play through all the songs on the album, in acoustic form. If that appeals to you, donate HERE!

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me at melanieacts@hotmail.com, anytime.

In other news: I’ll be hosting the open stage at The Cut On Queen this Wednesday August 28th. Sign up is at 7pm for those who want to play. Show starts with a short set from me at 8pm. Hope you’ll come out for a night of exciting original music at The Cut where everybody makes the cut.

Hugs and mushy stuff.

Melanie

PS- here are a few photo’s of hunky Peter Collins and I playing on the Via Rail earlier this month, thanks to their Artists On Board Program, we played our way to Halifax and back.
