Join Forces With Dragony!
DRAGONY is a Symphonic Power Metal band from Vienna, Austria. Originally founded as a studio project in 2007, the group soon decided to be a "real" band and after a re-naming process in 2011, released their first album "Legends" in 2012, sparking a remarkable career in the international metal scene that saw the band not only release two more very well received studio albums in "Shadowplay" (2015) and "Masters of the Multiverse" (2018) and the EP "Lords of the Hunt" in 2017, but also took them on several tours across Europe and the world, performing together with genre legends such as GAMMA RAY, BLIND GUARDIAN, POWERWOLF, SONATA ARCTICA , SERENITY, VISIONS OF ATLANTIS and many more, and even taking part in many festivals such as the Austrian Nova Rock and Metal on the Hill festivals, Masters of Rock in Czechia and even the incomparable 70.000 Tons of Metal cruise from Miami (USA) to Haiti in early 2019 and the legendary Wacken Open Air (GER) in summer 2019.
Now, after three albums and one EP, and numerous shows across the globe, it is time for Dragony to take their game to the next level - and once again, just like we did for our last album "Masters of the Multiverse", we want to bring you, our fans, on board for the experience and join forces with all our supporters out there in a crowdfunding campaign to fully realize our vision and take things one step beyond with our fourth full-length album!
After all, you gotta dream big if you want to make it big, so once again the plans for our new album are quite ambitious. But that also means we will face considerable production costs, which for an independent band that is doing most of the work on a do-it-yourself basis also means a formidable challenge.
So in order to make everything happen, from the songwriting process, finetuning the pre-production, recording and editing in the studio, mixing and mastering the album, to production of artwork, new promotional material, merchandise and music videos to present the album, we will once again need the support of our fans out there - both old ones who've already been there for our previous campaign, and of course hopefully also many new ones who have since seen us live or checked us out on the internet, and liked what they heard.
We are very excited to get to work on our most ambitious album yet, and we hope that we could share that excitement with you here! We thank you all already in advance for your contributions and will make sure to once again bring you the best Dragony product possible in the shape of our fourth studio album!
What We Need & What You Get
We have always taken great pride in financing our album productions ourselves, and will do so this time as well in respect of a large portion of the total costs, but we also want to reach out again to our fanbase to help us out once more and make it possible for us to deliver the best album we can.
Our total production costs include:
- Recording & Pre-Production: EUR 5.000
- Mixing & Mastering: EUR 5.000
- Artwork: EUR 600
- Promotional photos: EUR 700
- Additional Orchestration: EUR 3.000
- Merchandise Production: EUR 2.000
- Video Production: EUR 3.500
----------------------------------------
- Total production costs: EUR 19.800
What you will give us:
We are asking you for your contributions to reach our funding goal of EUR 6.000 as support to cover these costs. Raising funds beyond that goal is of course possible and encouraged, as it would help us to achieve even better production values for recording, mixing, mastering and our planned videos as well as more merchandising items available for you.
What you will get:
- A brand new Dragony record that has all the pathos, melodies, doublebass, humor and love for the genre that we are known for!
- Signed copies of the new album as well as of our previous releases!
- Exclusive Bonus Tracks!
- New merchandise articles such as shirts, posters, patches, guitar picks and more!
- You can become a part of Dragony history by having your name engraved in the album booklet, or even joining us in the studio for choir recordings or booking us for a private concert!
With your help, we can take our game one step beyond, and make the fourth Dragony album once again one for the ages!
