It’s a simple deal – pay £8 now, get an album to download later.

    There’s also a whole shopping list of extras that you can pick up in exchange for a little more investment, including advance copies of the album on CD, T-shirts, an exclusive performance by the band and Grandmaster Gareth’s soul.

    Things seem to be going pretty well so far – they’re up to 53% of their total already.

    Others

    A quick trawl around a few crowdfunding sites – Pledgebank, Kickstarter, IndieGoGo, Sponsume and WeDidThis – reveals just one more project from around Birmingham that’s asking for your money. I thought there’d be more (tell me if I missed any).

    It’s a collaborative project between Birmingham-based Lantern Music and New York-based Cassis who are looking to fund the second part of A Hawk In The Rain. There’s more info about that project on their blog.
