The aim of this project is to raise funds to finish and release The Barefoot Bandit debut album.

On the 29th March 2022 we'd raised £4,194 with 107 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
In 2020, we started working on our debut album. We saved up a full year of our live show fees to be able to go into a dream studio and lay down parts for our new record. It was our full intention to lay down the basis of the record at Karma Studio and then get the tracks mixed, mastered and released by the latter stages of 2020. However, a minor issue called C*V*D halted the entire planet including our album making!
Not only did it stop us in the recording process but it also killed our amazing line up of live shows and festivals. Performing at these events would have been our most high-profile live shows to date. This included main stage appearances at some of the UK's most renowned music festivals plus significant support tours. All cancelled because of 'you know what'.
The way we had planned to fund mixing and mastering was through these live performances. Every penny goes back into the band. Therefore, not one of us has taken a wage for the last 3 years.
Ultimately, the pandemic has set us back 2 years from our original release and plan for the album. That is where we turn to you Bandit fans to help us get back on track! Essentially we're asking you guys to pre-order our album and we promise you won't be disappointed. There are also some wicked reward bundles that we are offering in return for your donation to our project.
Thank you so much for reading.
