Hello folks. We are about to embark on the recording of our second album in mid-January with about 80% of the new material complete. We have a chunk of the money (£1800) towards the costs (recording, engineering, mixing, mastering, CD artwork, packaging and duplication) saved already but we are still about £1000 short of where we need to be to get this release over the line.

Crowd Funders, Kick Starters – call it what you will – they are everywhere – and it seems like everyone, somewhere is asking for money for something. Therefore, we wondered if you intended to buy a physical copy of our new album that you place a pre-order now and we can use these funds towards the hefty costs of our goal in getting the new album released early next year. Rest assured that those who pre-order will be the first to receive a copy once we have them. Of course, one off random acts of generosity in the form of donations will also be gratefully accepted but not expected. Should this happen then those benefactors will be treated to something, as yet, unconfirmed.

As Pirates, we should really just accost you in the street and take your money but credit us with a slither of good grace…we are happy to accept your charity instead.

We thank you in advance from the bottom of our barrel.
