Short Summary
Hey everyone, my Name's Tim Langley and I'm from the band Santa Clara. We are a Pop Rock band from Victoria that is passionate about music, but also about what we do through our music. We've had great success as an independent band with getting our music on radio and television and have had amazing opportunities to partner with charities to use our music to help others.
For our next release we decided to start looking at our home in Canada to see if we could make a small difference somehow. As our next single "Soldier With No Shield" is going to be on the TV show Degrassi on July 23rd and looks very promising for good radio play, we decided to try to use it to pomote and support United Way in efforts to fight poverty for Canadian families.
What We Need & What You Get
What we need is to raise is $8,000 for the production and distribution of this single. That includes studio time, mixing, mastering and distribution to iTunes and production of Download Cards. It also includes promotion to TV and radio.
What you get is a copy of the single to do with as you please, as well as some fun perks - so make sure to check out the different options for donations. (Pre-Release downloads are available from July 5 -26 - Available to the public on July 27)
The Impact
When this single is released 100% of the iTunes sales for the first month will be donated to United Way. We hope that with your help and with the momentum we will gain from TV and radio that this will be a succesful campaign. We have had good success with our singles the last few years and hope that we can use the success of this one to help families in need.
Other Ways You Can Help
Please share this campaign if you're unable to donate. The success of this campaign really depends on word of mouth. We would love this idea to work and hope that we would inspire other artists to think of ways to use their music to help others if they aren't already.
Our most sincere thank you,
The boys @ Santa Clara
