Story
Receving any financial support via this CrowdFund would allow my band and I to travel to Croatia twice this coming summer for Soundwave and Outlook festivals. When we were offered a slot to play the festivals, they had already allocated their artist budget by the time we were in contact with one another, so weren't able to offer us a fee, however what they could offer towards our expenses was some tickets to sell and space on the campsite as well as a slot in the programming. For a young act like us the chance to perform on these line ups is something we don't want to miss, however pulling the funds together is proving difficult.
Thankfully we have some amazing accommodation sorted as my drummer, my bassist and I will be flying out to meet and stay in my keyboardists home built studio bus which we will also plan to create a tonne of amazing content on whilst out in Croatia as we travel around in the Made On The Road studio bus ( https://www.instagram.com/madeontheroaduk/?hl=en ) - photography, acoustic videos of my original music and also covers in amazing settings and live sessions on social media whilst writing new music.
Having the inspiration from new cities as well as having access to so many artists whom inspire me at these festivals to write with I believe makes these trips to Croatia so worth while as it enables me to make necessary connections in the industry.
My videographer will be following my band and I around for the whole festival weekend(s), so not only will my audience be engaged with our performance and music writing/collaborating, they will also have access to behind the scenes footage, which I believe really helps the artist remain relatable.
To simplify (and be as open and honest as possible with you guys) exactly what the funds will go towards: Flights (for Tom, Jim and I to join George who will already be in Croatia on his bus), Fuel for the Bus (when we're travelling to and from airports from the Festivals, we'll also be driving back to the UK on the bus after Outlook festival.)
I believe performing at these festivals will help shape my future career. Being asked to play in Croatia twice has already put my foot in the door with future gigs which I am so incredibly appreciative of!
Any purchases of my EP or singles via my Bandcamp page will also go towards the Croatia trips. (Any money I make via any platform in terms of my music will always go directly back into funding future projects!)
