Hello Everybody,
For the past few months you’ve heard me talking about a new album… yes, it’s happening! I’m in the process of creating the new rock album you’ve been asking for and I’d like you to join with me and be a part of The Greater Cause!
My fourth solo album, entitled The Greater Cause, is intended to be a fresh and powerful tool to accomplish what God has been doing through me for many years: connecting and encouraging people through my music. I’ve learned a lot since the release of The Grafting as an independent artist on my own label; I want to take it to the next level with this new album.
I’d like to do something totally different by asking you to be involved in a unique way. No labels, no managers, no corporations – just me and you – my friends and supporters - helping to make this project a reality.
To make The Greater Cause, including recording costs and expenses, CD design, graphics and manufacturing, etc., will take a lot more money than I could come up with on my own.
In order to fund this project, I’m going with an online pledge system called Kickstarter.com. It’s a way to raise funds – by giving to you in exchange for your support of me. It’s not a donation – it’s more like an investment, where you receive incentives back for your dollars.
If you pledge a dollar amount to help fund The Greater Cause, I will pledge a reward back to you. There are a variety of dollar amounts along with a variety of rewards – you chose the one that appeals to you. Click here to check it out! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joh ... ater-cause
The pledges are taken on Kickstarter’s safe & secure site, powered by Amazon’s payment services, which means that after you make your pledge, your credit card will only be charged after we reach our target goal, ensuring that you'll only be contributing toward a project that will actually happen. It also means that if we fall short of the goal I won’t receive any of the contributions. So it's all …or nothing!
I’m asking you to help it be “all.” The Greater Cause needs a team effort in order for this concept to come to life. Just like a seed, it takes one person to plant, many more to water – and God to shine on it and make it grow.
I have been truly blessed by the love and support you have shown me throughout the years and I pray you will continue as we all work together to bring life to The Greater Cause!
…John
