Hi there!

We’re making a record! Think of it as a portable Second String Band. Are you in a living room? Turn it into a house concert! Are you at a farmer’s market? Instant buskers. Are you at a bar? Put us on, and everyone will start climbing onto chairs and counters and start dancing.

We've been hard at work getting ready for this album, but we felt like there was something missing. Our music has always been inspired by the people we love; the strangers that have become friends at our shows; and those we have yet to meet and share a song and a beer. So we couldn't imagine trekking to Vermont to record without having our community of friends and family right there with us.

Phil pointed out, though, that we can’t fit you all in the studio. So we’re asking for your help: we want to send you a record, or a record and a t-shirt. We want to play in your living room! And giving today will help us make those dreams come true.

Check out the right hand side. The more we raise, the more we’ll be able to tour to support this record (hello west coast!?). And, we’ll be writing the name of everyone who gives onto a big sheet of paper that we can hang up in the studio, so that when Sam is cranky, Alex is hungry, and Sophia, Jason, and Wren are sleepy, we can look at the wall, and feel newly inspired by all the friends and family that are with us in the room.

Thanks. We’re so glad you took the time to come over here.

Sincerely,
The Second String Band
