Roedelius North American Tour 2017
Donation protected
The last time Hans-Joachim Roedelius was in the USA was in October of 2011. Six years later he hasn't returned though he's done countless tours and appearances in Europe, last year Asia and South America yet the USA has been on the back burner for sometime. Everything Roedelius has done has been with the support of individuals and himself. Now at the age of 82, he needs your help as he can't cover the costs for a legitimate work visa to the United States as an artist coming from Austria. No one is willing to put up his $3000.00 work visa this time. He is living on an artist's budget alone to support himself and his family. Support his campaign to bring him back to the USA, help him raise the funds so that you can watch this wonderful pioneer of electronic music fulfill his dream of revisiting his friends, family and loved fans in the USA by making his tour in March possible for the East Coast and a mid-west/west coast tour in September/October 2017.
Normally artist groups in Austria and Europe have assisted to help Artists in the area receive minimal funding or grants in order to enable possibility for artists such as Roedelius to travel and and tour. His annual More Ohr Less festival that usually took place in Lunz Am See in the Austrian Alpine countryside last year was not observed in the same beautiful location as a result of the slicing of these such grants. There is no telling when and if Roedelius would ever return to the US in the future and the thought of this saddened us deeply as a result of all this. Not to mention this phenomenon of artist grants being cut is now fast becoming a world wide phenomenon so we have turned to crowd funding and are relying on the fans to help him come perform.

Our Kickstarter looked destined for failure so as an added bonus, we still plan to offer the same Rewards! If you donated to our Kickstarter, please donate here instead and we look forward to sending out your reward still!
