The Blam Blams Debut: Opening Night
Donation protected
Hello Beautiful People! If you do not know us yet, we are The Blam Blams, a Glam Rock band based out of Nashville, TN. Glitter, costumes, theatrics, the whole bit! We have been spending the past two years writing our debut full-length album, developing a great live show, and trying to reach as many people as we can with our music. We have a grand vision for an ambitious record that we know will be amazing, but we need your help!
"Opening Night" is a theatrical concept album about an actor coming to grips with his show, relationships, sense of self, and sexuality. It’s an exploration of love, betrayal, and hope, and a celebration of LGBT+ identity. Rather grandiose, we certainly think! We have 12 full songs for this album, many of which we have been playing for almost two years, and a few that are new to everyone. It's a dramatic, ambitious, and intensely dynamic record that we have poured our hearts into since coming together as a band.
In 2018, we produced our 3 song EP "Roll On" at Teal Audio Labs here in Nashville, recording and mixing it ourselves. For Opening Night we have bigger plans, and we have been working with an incredible engineer in a beautiful studio up in Paducah, KY putting our vision to tape. We also set a fundraising goal to be able to afford high quality mixing and mastering work, as we have intense standards for what we produce as a band.
That's where you lovely people come in - $10,000 is the goal! Here's where those funds are going:
-Studio time at Loud and Clear in Paducah KY
-Mixing and Mastering at H.O.M.E. in Nashville TN
-Two fabulous music videos
-Lyric Videos
-Manufacturing of merchandise: CDs, T shirt printing, Digital distribution, Vinyl (stretch goal)
-Album Promotion
-Reward fulfillment, packaging, and shipping
-Coffee (tea for Bradley, who does not partake in the bean juice)
-Processing fees
-Album Release Tour Costs
Any funds left over, or should we exceed our goal, will go right into marketing for the record. This may include:
-A band vehicle (The Blam Van)
-A publicist to reach out to blogs, magazines, and streaming playlists
-Social media advertising
-College and alternative radio promotion
This new album is going to be awesome! We can't wait to share it with you!
This is your chance to help make some more magic in the world, something that Rock music has been lacking, lately. If you can give a few bucks, if you can share this campaign, if you can tell some friends about us, or buy a reward for someone else, the Blam Blams will be eternally grateful to you. Thank you for being a part of our story, and for helping us share that story with the world!
