On the 12th May 2024 we'd raised £2,265 with 65 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
I am thrilled to report that ‘Undercurrents’, my forthcoming album, is almost ready for release and I now need your help!!
I've been working on the music for sometime now, and I'm ready to release it to the public.
The events of the last few years have provided me with a wealth of inspiration. Enduring health problems, the COVID-19 pandemic, and returning to "normal". During this time, it's been an emotional rollercoaster, and I've created music to express my experiences and I want to share this with you all.
The album is a soundscape of music that you wouldn’t necessarily associate with the harp, especially the lever harp. In Scotland, we play mainly traditional folk music on the harp. The music I play and write is contemporary with minimalist influences. You can expect to hear original music written by me but also music by Philip Glass, Max Richter.
I want to share my passion with you and my passion is creating music which feeds the soul and sends your emotions flying. I find solace in music, a sanctuary, a space. This is what I want other people to experience. Sharing music that resonates deeply and creates a meaningful experience for the listener.
Ways you can assist with the release.
My goal is to raise £5,000 to complete the album. So far I have self funded the project and it's so so close to completion. However, to move on to final stages of mastering and releasing on all streaming platforms, CD's and Vinyl, I need to raise the additional funds with your help.
I’ve set up different reward levels in return for your pledges of support for the project. Even a small donation goes a long way to helping me achieve my goal. To share my love of music, you won't just get to hear the music, you will also get a little pack of bee loving seeds to plant.
I'll be updating you all with snippets from the album, the progress and release dates through frequent posts on my crowdfunder and social media platforms.
Please follow my instagram for lots of teasers of the music and what goes on behind the scenes of a creative artist.
