WOW!!! What an
exciting finish to the campaign!
With ALL MY HEART I
wish to thank everyone who helped to make this campaign a success. It feels
like such an incredible gift to have £10,038 to start producing this
album...
Although the campaign on Indiegogo is now closed, if you missed
it – don’t panic! You didn’t miss out!! As I am still in need of the remaining
16% of my funding goal, I would be delighted to receive any further pre orders
of the album, perks or contributions privately: You can contact me at elise@eliseyuill.com to arrange this.
For now, it's time
for me to start making the most beautiful album I can... and I can’t wait for
you all to hear it!

The Story So Far
Since the release of my debut EP, I’ve spent the last 18
months writing and gigging at venues and festivals across the UK. Along the way
I’ve written a collection of new songs which share stories of my life and the
people I’ve met.
Everything
has aligned beautifully for these new songs to be made into a full length
album, so I can share them with more people than ever before. The last thing I need is the financial support. So I am now looking for help to manifest this dream and I believe that with your contribution we can make this happen!

My heart and soul has gone into writing these songs and also into forging this path as a singer-songwriter. To be at this amazing turning point in my life is quite incredible.
I'm over the moon about the prospect of being able to record this album with the amazing team of people that are standing by to accompany me on this journey with their talents and support. This includes my producer Pete Miles: (http://www.petermiles.com/) and the formation of a brand new band of accompanying musicians.
My vision for this album is to be able to decorate these recordings with additional instruments to create a sound which I feel pays true testimony to the depth and vibrancy of each songs’ narrative. By including the beautiful sounds of a range of instruments such as the cello, violin and banjo to accompany my voice and guitar, I intend to produce an honest and heartfelt album with an alternative fresh “new folk” finish.

What I Need & What You Get
My goal is to raise £12,000 - which would cover everything I would ideally like to do involved with recording and releasing this album independently, including paying my musicians the fair wage that there deserve after doing so much for me for free over the years, and a Marketing & PR budget to sufficiently promote the album.
The breakdown of these costs is:
-
Recording, mixing and mastering (including musicians
fees) - £6000
-
CD Production & distribution - £1,500
-
Marketing & PR - £1000
-
Artwork, Design & Video expenses - £1,450
- Campaign support team (10%) - £1,200
-
Indiegogo (5%) & Paypal fees (2%) - £850
If you would like to take part and help turn this dream into a reality, you can make a contribution to the campaign by pre-ordering the CD or choosing from another one of the special edition perks - see right hand column of this Indiegogo webpage. Any donation would be a huge help!
Staying Connected to My Project
Throughout the whole project I will be sending out regular email updates from the Indiegogo website to everyone who contributes to the campaign; with photos, videos and blogs that document my progress. You will be able to see how the rehearsals with the new band unfold, check out our days in the recording studio in and hear about any other exciting announcement I have to share! I really want you to feel like you are taking part in this process with me!
Other Ways You Can Help
If
donating money isn’t an option at this time, that's ok! Simply sharing this webpage with your friends in an email, or on facebook and other social media sites would be wonderful!!!
Thank you so much for taking part, words don't seem to express quite how grateful and hopeful I am for this opportunity.
