Short Summary
Blessings, I hope your ready to join me on an Experience!
My name is ItzSHLZ (pronounced It’s Shellz) and I am a Artist and Songwriter from Fort Wayne, IN. My main artistry focuses on HipHop and R&B but being that I am also a songwriter (who is both a singer and rapper) I write in other genres as well. I grew up singing in church/school choirs at a young age so I was always connected to and inspired by music. Now when I create I create music with emotions, telling stories, through melodic sounds using my timbre voice and creative flexibility. And now my mission is to reach the world ?
Pain N Lyrics: The Experience is a very special project and campaign to me as I go to bring my 1st Album “Pain N Lyrics” to life through a Live Experience like no other. Picture 1 artist taking you from themed room to themed room giving you a personal experience into the 3 different musical vibes (or shells) my music creates from,on 3 different stages all in 1 nigh while also shedding light on mental healtht. “The Experience” is split into Chill/Love/Energy sets and each is its own vibe. This will be an experience like no other that will have a live band, catered food, raffles and giveaways, memorabilia and exclusive interview footage giving insight on what each emotion means to me and why.
This Indiegogo campaign, provides an incredible opportunity for fans and music enthusiasts to become a part of this musical journey. By supporting the campaign, donors will not only contribute to the creation of an extraordinary experience, help me bring awareness to mental health in the city, but also gain access to a range of exclusive rewards and experiences.
With your appreciated help I will be able to successfully meet the budget for this event and will allow me to fully decorate each room according to theme, allow me to hire the musicians that will be joining along side me, cover the venue cost, supplies, marketing, as well as allowing me to get personalized Merch designed and made for “The Experience”.
What We Need & What You Get
The total amount I’m looking to get funded for this campaign is $5,433. This amount would cover the venue cost, musicians pay, videographer & photographer, marketing , supplies, food and drinks (I have included a full detailed breakdown in the slide above).
If I don’t reach my goal entire goal of $5,433 money will first go to the musicians, host, venue, and most of the supplies. The rest of the costs would hopefully be paid out of pocket and through other donations.
Donors will have the opportunity to select from an enticing array of rewards like tshirts, exclusive access to behind the scenes, signed copies of the album, tagged personalized thank-you videos, tickets to “The Experience”, and even a custom song about a loved one. Every contribution, regardless of size, will be appreciated and acknowledged as a vital part of my musical triumph. Anything you can give helps and I am so grateful for each and every one of you.
The Impact
I aim to connect with my community and you, share my experience dealing with mental health and depression, and this campaign serves as a platform for fans and supporters to actively participate in the artistic process of awareness. By making a contribution, donors join a vibrant community that not only supports independent music but also celebrates the power of creativity and self-expression.
