Help Ciarra Fragale finish her album!

Donation protected
Hello friends (and strangers)!

My name is Ciarra Fragale, a heartfelt pop/if-you-love-80s-bangers-you'll-probably-like-my-songs musician based in Western Massachusetts. It has been a dream come true to work on my latest album (Title TBD), produced by Eric Slick of Dr. Dog. I’m heading back to the studio in early 2024 to finish the album, BUT, I need your help to make it happen.




I’ve learned to embrace the power of asking more this year than I ever have before. It’s a really scary and vulnerable thing to ask — for help, for money, to work with people whom you’ve always admired. This new collection of songs has been the direct result of exercising the power to ask. So, thank you for hearing me out.

The funds we raise will cover:
  • Studio rental fee ($2,500.00)
  • Mixing and mastering costs ($1,000.00)
  • Travel costs, merch, album art, paying collaborators ($1,000.00)

About The Album
This last year has really reminded me why I play music. The experiences of touring, writing and meeting new people have cemented the idea that I was born to live a life like this. To bond, to connect, to challenge, to discover — it’s all there. Getting to work with Eric has been a real “pinch me” moment ever since we had our first conversations about the record. I’m so lucky to be able to call him a friend and an incredible collaborator, and honored that he agreed to helm this ship alongside me.

It’s new for me to bring another producer on to my work, so this record has been a practice of letting go, in a way. To be able to share your vision with someone who really gets it is such a cool experience. It’s such an honor to be fans of your friends.

Why I’m Asking
I’m producing this album independently, which means I have no label paying for me to get to the finish line. While this $4K fundraising goal will be a MAJOR help, the true expenses of completing this album range beyond that, as I get into travel costs, merch, album art and compensating my collaborators.

In a time when there are so many necessary causes to support, choosing to contribute to this campaign is no small feat, and I take your support very seriously. THANK YOU for helping out, in whatever way you can. Every single dollar really adds up to make a difference.

For those who contribute over $200, I’ll send you one of the album demos so you can get a preview of what you’re making happen!

About Me
Often described as "truly original, heartbreakingly sincere, and effortlessly cool", Ciarra Fragale’s music is "atmospheric and aspirational, precisely the sort of emotive sensibility we are collectively yearning for." Ranging from heartbreak pop to modern and cerebral indie rock, she creates a distinct sonic world that allows her to display what makes her artistry so special.
