Contribute to Sterling Drake's Debut Record.

Friends and fans of music! My name is Sterling Drake, a singer/songwriter with a love for honest storytelling through country & roots music. After years of self-funded projects and hauling our band up and down the US, I am now embarking on a journey to record my debut full-length record. However, I need your support to turn this dream into a reality!

Over the past several years, I have had the privilege of developing my songwriting and ear for arrangement in the many pockets of music that the band and I have weaved in and out of. I’m excited to put that inspiration to wax but I can’t do this alone. This project requires musicians, producers, engineers, Illustrators, press agents, and marketing strategists that share a common vision. With this record, we plan to extend our tour route in 2024 to new audiences within the US and abroad.

With your contributions, we aim to create an album that showcases the versatility of American roots music. Every dollar counts and makes a profound impact on my ability to share and create music in perpetuity. In return for your support, you’ll gain exclusive access to unreleased demos and live session videos. In addition, exclusive signed color variants of our record will be made available for those who contribute.

Each contributor that donates over $50 will receive a limited pressing of the record. I pledge to cover the expenses of our studio time to show my commitment to the project. I’m glad to have the opportunity to work with some of the best in the business on both the creation and release of this project. Thank you all for your consideration!
