Hey guys,
I’m getting ready to hit this button on my computer that looks like a rocket ship and says “LAUNCH,” and I’m so excited to do so, knowing how it could bridge you (the people that we are lucky enough to call fans) and us, Clarensau. But before I hit that magic button, I wanted to explain a few things.
This “LAUNCH” button is on a site called Kickstarter, where we have put together a handful of options that would allow our new record, THIS ONE’S FOR YOU, to become your new record. Many people use Kickstarter as simply fundraising site, but we’re taking a little different approach.
Being called THIS ONE’S FOR YOU, we thought it would be awesome if that title were true. So here’s what we’re offering:
*You can have your name or the name of someone you love printed as part of the artwork on the actual disc that we sell. We’ll also sign a copy of the disc and send it your way.
*You can have your picture be on the back cover of the artwork, introducing one of the songs on the record.
*You can spend 2 hours with Tyler Clarensau via Skype, writing a song together. He’ll record it for you, and there’s even an option where we’ll send you 20 custom copies of THIS ONE’S FOR YOU with your song as a bonus track.
*You can sing on a gang vocal part on a special “Fan Version” of a song on the record, which will appear as a bonus track.
*You can create your own artwork for the cover, and we’ll mail you 20 custom copies of the record, created just for you.
*You can tell us your favorite song, and we’ll send you handwritten lyrics (and chords if you want them) to that song.
*You can spend 30 minutes with us via Skype, and we’ll play a show for you and as many people as you can cram around your computer, taking requests and playing some new songs. By the way, talk about a really good date idea…
*You can send us the name of your special someone (or yourself), and we’ll record a customized version of our song “Sheets” with that name in it, and send it to you.
*You can even bring us to your house for an evening of music.
Our goal here is simply to give you ways to be a part of this record, which will be released this fall. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to hit us up at tyler@clarensau.com.
Thanks so much for all you’ve been to us the last couple years.
Ok, I’m gonna hit the “LAUNCH” button now…
