By crikey! We've raised our goal amount of $15,000 and we have 5 days left. Thank you. Thank you. Thank YOU!
We're still taking pledges to cover a mountain of costs - Mixing, Mastering, Pressing to CD and Vinyl, Album Artwork and Design, Album Publicity and Promo and of course a sweet Music Clip.
Supporters voted on the album cover for In Blood Memory this week - so we're offering a new reward. One of 5 Celeste Potter original prints of the cover that won and the cover that came second (by one vote). You can bid for it in the rewards section to your right.
ABOUT THE ALBUM
In September last year I took my band to Headgap Studios, nestled inconspicuously between a chicken wholesaler and a plastic manufacturer in the industrial quarters of East Preston, Melbourne.
And what a band! Courtney Barnett on guitar, Bones Sloane on bass and long-time Endless Sea drummer Jen Sholakis on drums. The amazing Nick Huggins came in, set things up and recorded everything.

I then took one of the songs, Mount Beauty - and released it. You might have heard it on the wireless or watched the clip which was shot by the legendary Australian cinematographer Ellery Ryan (Death in Brunswick, Van Diemen's Land).

To accompany my full-tilt action clip, I pressed my first ever vinyl and released Mount Beauty as a split 7" with Courtney Barnett through local artist run collective Milk! Records. We then jumped into the ol' Tarago for some launch shows around Australia, thanks for coming out!

After a little more tinkering over summer we're getting ready to release my third album so we can SHARE IT WITH YOU THIS MAY!!!
Your support will help us to:
1. Mix and master the album
2. Press the album to vinyl and CD
3. Fund the creation of our second music clip
4. Release the album around Australia.
As you know, I am 100% independent, self-funded and self-managed. My success rests entirely upon the interest you have shown in my work - the support that has enabled me to continue to create, release and tour my music in Australia. Thank you.
