Hey, Warriors!

From the very beginning of this D.T.M.A. campaign, we have seen more support and love than I have ever imagined. I am proud to say that we are almost there! Just a little way to go until we are fully covered! Over the past four days, the D.T.M.A. campaign has gained so much support, it’s highly overwhelming.

Dance This Mess Around is now 89% funded, with $4,913 raised of our $5,500 goal. Only 600 dollars to go! We have come a long way since the beginning of this campaign, and there are still 3 weeks to go! Just a few days ago, the campaign was 63% funded. This means that in less than a week, funding for D.T.M.A has increased by 26 percent, which is completely amazing.

I feel the need, once again, to give each and every one of you a huge thank you for supporting this project and my music. A special thanks goes out to our newest backers: Jack Reynolds, Dansomethin, Fred, Devin Hill, Taja, Syndee Winters, Jonathan LaRosa, Jared Salvatore, Tijuana Gift Shop, Nicole Boggs, Nadia Monchery, Gary Sohmers, Leah Collins, Julia Partyka, Genevieve Hammond, and Susan Collings! You are all rockstars!

Let’s wrap this campaign up and get this show on the road! Once again, your support for D.T.M.A. is more than appreciated, and I just cannot wait to release this new music for all of you to here!

Look out for more updates coming soon!

Keep Rocking!

Hey, Warriors! We are very proud to announce that we are 30% of the way toward reaching our $5,500 goal for the Dance This Mess Around Kickstarter! Thank you for all of the support so far! 

As far as recording goes, Shea recently was able to lay done some vocals for the new EP. She hit up the studio with the amazing Jennifer Lopez-Davis, laying down harmonies for the EP at Echo Studios in Allston. While there, we got to have a little fun, and well, Dance Our Mess Around. We decided to take a fun, little video for you all. Enjoy!

Love you, Warriors!
