Elisium has been a full time band for 15 months.  We fund everything through our music, by playing shows 5-6 nights a week, and touring constantly. We have managed to stay alive, and even grow as a band tremendously during this time!

It's time for us to make a new record, and though we make enough to keep the van paid for, our phones turned on (most of the time), and food in our bellies, we don't have the means to raise the kind of money it takes to record a professional album. 

When we recorded "Becoming", the three of us had jobs and pooled our money together.  We no longer have the ability to work normal jobs, and live on the road in the way that is required to push an independent band full time.  So, we need help. 

We're asking for donations to raise the $10,000 we will need to produce a BRAND NEW, 8 song album! It's our most ambitious studio undertaking to date, and we have some great new music we can't wait to share with you guys.  We have come up with some cool ways to get involved, and some neat things to give you for donating to our campaign. 

We will keep adding new perks in the coming weeks, and will update everyone as things move forward.  We hope you'll join us in this ongoing journey.  Our hearts have lead us to here, let's see where we go next...

Junior is known for drawing his own shirt designs. Several of them have even been sold right off of his back after shows (free sweat!). For a pledge of just $25 he will make you one too! No two are alike, and all of them are random and usually hilarious. Just tell us what size you need, all are drawn on comfy Hanes brand Tees.

Your own Breakfast Burrito!

$150 USD
We will (well Kirb mostly) make you a breakfast burrito at any show you come to! Due to the logistics, we will have to work out the when and where on a case-by-case basis, but that's OK! You'll get to enjoy the finest tour food option we have available. Breakfast Burritos kept us (and several friends of ours) alive on the road for most of 2013. Get yourself one!

Merch Table shopping spree

$200 USD
Have a run at the merch table! Either in real life, or via the webstore, you can have any 4 items you'd like. If they are smaller items, we can probably throw in a few extras. Nothing like a good old shopping spree!

Kirb's (broken) bass amp

$300 USD
Kirb plays hard. He uses the Carvin B2000 amp to deliver all of that tone, and it's been too much for two of them. We are on the third amp now because he can't stop breaking things. But, rather than throwing the old one away, we'd rather you have it! I bet it can be fixed, probably for cheap. Or just used for parts. Or as a cool bookend. A real piece of stage gear for sure!

6' x 6' Skulls Stage Scrim

$350 USD
With the new record coming out, we are updating our stage scrims and the old 3-skulls Scrims are going to be phased out. They were used on all kinds of stages in various states, and are still lined with velcro on the back for easy installation! Each one measures 6'x6' and is made of authentic stage scrim material. Only 2 ever made, grab one!

Coldcock Whiskey bottle & vid

$400 USD
Since we love Coldcock Whisky so much, we want to show off our silly antics by drinking an ENTIRE bottle of Coldcock while filming ourselves. We do this for your amusement mostly... but also because it's great whiskey! We will send you the video (with whatever happens there...) as well as the actual bottle we emptied, which we will sign for you. Pretty cool huh? If you're close enough to us, maybe we will drink it together!

Signed Saluda Cymbal with name

We cover ANY song you want

$2,000 USD
How much would it cost to get Elisium to play any song you want? $2000, that's how much. This is unlimited, there are no rules. If you want to see us do a three-piece cover of anything.. this is your chance. We will film and send the (likely embarrassing) video to you, so you can cherish it forever. Get some friends together, get creative, and show us what you've got!
