I Built The Sky

Successful on 9th Dec 2022 at 7:00AM.
In 2019 I left my job to go all in with my music and pursue the seemingly impossible task of being a full time original musician. In 2023 I want to visit and play for you all with a significant tour of all the places that have requested to see I Built The Sky the most.
BUT, to do this I need your help 🙏
Touring is VERY expensive, the costs might surprise you, a 5 week long international tour in the past has cost me roughly $30,000 each time, which is used to cover expenses including flights for band and crew, baggage, accomodation, transport, musician and crew fees, production costs, live rigs/backline, promotion, videography and more...
For each of my touring endeavours in the past I've had to find the funds any way I can and often forced to take out bank loans to make it happen. The costs I outlay on these tours do not get recouped anywhere near enough to be sustainable and my income being solely reliant on streaming, merch, youtube revenue and patreon primarily, make it extremely challenging.
While I want nothing more than to bring my live show to all of you, I'm in the unfortunate position of needing funding to make it possible, as the alternatives would likely be to not tour much at all, or to tour without a band using backing tracks which is a compromise on my music I really cant bring myself to make.
I've worked extreamly hard to build and establish a team of world class musicians and crew, and a fully functioning live rig ready to bring the IBTS show to any stage. So to everyone who's ever asked me to come to USA, Canada, India, UK, Europe, Asia, Japan... THIS is your chance to make it a reality and get me and my band over to play for you all for a memorable night of music, WE ARE READY.
I am excited to launch this Pozible campaign and with it a number of exclusive goodies including Guitars, Online Concerts, exclusive merch and more. Check out the rewards page to see all 21 rewards available for a limited time through my campaign.
Please consider pledging to my campaign and helping me reach a dream of playing for you in as many places as possible in 2023-2024
Thanks,
Ro + Team
