Short Summary

I'm Scott, a humble Canadian who has played music since childhood and had the opportunity to travel all over the planet studying, working and getting involved with a wide range of projects and remarkable people, plants and animals. My campaign is to get people involved in making the solo album (CD) I've composed achieve successful recording, mixing and mastering, so it will be ready for the world. The importance for myself lives in the fact that the compositions are pieces that have been composed over a number of years and in different parts of the world. Putting them together professionally in an album will ideally be like gathering pieces of a puzzle and making sense of it all - producing something that is hopefully comprehensible and complete, personal and universal.

What We Need & What You Get

The project requires $15,000 to complete the recording, mixing and mastering. The costs are kept down by the fact that all the songs are already composed, half of which are already recorded (not mixed or mastered as yet) and all the instruments, vocals and the like are done by myself, so no session players are required.

Concerning the perks - this is something that I have had to put serious thought into, as I wish them to be qualitative - something of value to those who take part in making this project happen. More than just generating enthusiasm, I would like supporters to realize that they are an actual part of the project. More on this later...

As this is an all or nothing project, unless it reaches its goal all of the funds are returned. It does not mean that the project will not happen though. It strictly means that it will have to happen another way, another day.

The Impact

The project is not left or right, up or down, in or out, wet or dry, hard or soft. It is not building a fence, so has none to sit on either. It is notes and words with some unusual tastes. The words were slow cooked, the notes done on an open flame. The value I believe is in that it is real and has taken many years to produce. The hope is that this value will be realized by those who make it happen, and beyond. The difference is that the years of training, experience and networks my alter ego, in the world of international sustainable development has gained, will happily help provide 50% of the revenue generated from the album to fund more clean energy infrastructure in a developing nation (or nations) or choice.

Having been fortunate to have played music for many years, with many people, in many nations, I have had the opportunity to compose many songs. Those selected for completing this project were chosen for a reason. Supporters like you make all the difference in getting it out there.

Other Ways You Can Help

As it isn't always possible to contribute in a financial way, the success of getting the project out there through contributions of time and effort are excellent and appreciated.

I'm looking forward to working together. See you soon...
