Help Bad Waitress with Tour Costs

Hey everyone! As some of you know we are an independent band. That means we don’t get special funding from a record label or access to government grants very easily. We basically have to make our money from playing shows and selling merch and hustling like crazy.

Recently we were offered a tour with Subhumans that will take place in late September- early October and we had to say yes! (Obviously). Unfortunately for Canadian artists to enter the US we need to purchase work visas and processing times are so backed up, we were forced to expedite them otherwise we couldn’t do it. This has cost us our entire savings at this point (thousands of dollars). We all work countless hours at joe jobs to be able to take time to tour and record and maintain living in an expensive city like Toronto. This blow has been very heavy to us.

So, we’re reaching out to whoever can help us in any way possible. It’s tough out there for artists and as much as it sucks to have to ask, we need community support to keep this thing going. Even though the system doesn’t value art properly, we know what we and other artists like us offer the world.

For full transparency the money we are trying to raise will be dedicated to flight costs, vehicle rentals, and accommodations where we can’t find floors to sleep on.

So if you have a few extra bucks please consider helping out Bad Waitress. And if you can’t afford it, please share in case someone else out there can.

No raffles, sweepstakes, giveaways, or returns on investment are offered in exchange for any donations made to this GoFundMe
