2nd album Kickstarter is LIVE

We're super excited to announce the launch of our Kickstarter to fund our second album!

We'd love it if you could:

  1. Contribute
  2. Share the link to the Kickstarter with your friends and tell them to contribute (you can use misbehavinmaidens.com/kickstarter if that's easier)

Keep sharing, even if we reach our initial goal. Our $5,000 initial goal will get us to a 10-song album, but we'd love to do a 12-song album, which will require additional funding. We have a couple of stretch goals set up that will get you more tracks and more merch, so stay tuned!

Kickstarter Launching Jan. 3: Back Us on Day One!

On January 3, 2017, at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time, we will be launching the Kickstarter to fund our second album. 

To help make this Kickstarter a success, we have one simple goal: 

***Get as many people as possible to back us on the FIRST day of the campaign.***

WHY?

Kickstarter is more likely to feature our project on their homepage if we get a large number of people backing us right out of the gate. And if we make it to the homepage, we'll get even more backers (and new fans!). This worked fantastically well for us in 2015, so we're hoping to replicate that success.

BUT WHAT IF I'M BROKE?

The total amount RAISED on the first day doesn't matter - just the total number of backers. So, yes, even $1 helps! Remember that you can change your pledge level any time between Jan. 3 and when the campaign ends Feb. 2, and your credit card won't be charged until after the campaign ends in February.

WHAT IF I WANT TO DO MORE TO HELP?

♥ ♥ ♥ You rock. You can help by spreading the word:
1. RSVP and invite your friends to our Day One Backers event on Facebook.
2. Tweet/Facebook post about how excited you are for our second album with our Official Campaign Hashtag, #MoreMaidens. 
3. Ask your friends, individually, to back the campaign. People are more likely to give if asked personally!
4. Know someone with a podcast or blog that would be interested in us? Tell them! We'd love to spread the word through some new channels. They can reach us at misbehavinmaidens@gmail.com. Or if you have a blog or podcast, invite people to back us at www.misbehavinmaidens.com/kickstarter. Once the campaign launches, that link will point right to it.

I'M STILL CONFUSED. WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ON JANUARY 3?

We want you to go to our Kickstarter (link will be posted on launch day) and pledge at least $1 to back the campaign on January 3. 

WAIT, WHAT IS KICKSTARTER?

Kickstarter is an online platform on which people can raise money for projects. The biggest thing setting Kickstarter apart from other fundraising platforms is that if we don't reach our initial goal ($5,000 for a full-length album), we get NOTHING. So it's very, very important that we hit that goal. Learn more about Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/about

Want to see album #2? Plan to back our Kickstarter in early January!

We're gearing up to launch our Kickstarter for our second CD! We learned a lot from the previous Kickstarter, and we're working ahead on as many things as possible this time around.

If you want to make sure you're in the loop when the Kickstarter launches, please sign up for our mailing list. We promise to email to alert you when the Kickstarter is live (and not too often after that).

FUN FACTS:

  1. The best way to ensure we're able to create CD #2 is to back the Kickstarter on Day 1, even if it's only for $1. The more backers we have on the first day, the more likely we'll get featured on the Kickstarter website and gain the momentum we need to hit our goal.
  2. We'll post a Facebook event to remind you to back us on Day 1 - watch for it! RSVPing for that virtual event is the only way you can get exclusive sneak-peeks at our rewards!
  3. Your credit card won't be charged until the end of the campaign, so feel free to spend money before you have it!

More info forthcoming! Watch this space.
