Christmas Album

PLEASE CLICK ON "UPDATES" TO FIND THE DIFFERENT OPTIONS YOU HAVE ~ THERE ARE 12 WAYS TO DONATE WITH FUN INCENTIVE PACKAGES!

I am recording a Christmas Album in loving memory of my precious Dad, Harold Dow Ledgerwood.
I am calling it  “The Whole Year Long” named after one of the songs on the album.  The song describes the moments after taking down the tree, lights and decorations that Jesus - the true joy of Christmas - remains.  
Included on the album will be a song co-written with my little granddaughter (mini-me) Molly Dowd about the joys of the first snow of the season! (Molly will also be singing and playing instruments with me on our song!)  
There will be songs I have written of childhood Christmas memories, a song crying “GLORY!” along with the angels at the birth of Christ, and my own new melody with additional refrain to the old lyrics from Away in a Manger, (my song is called "God With Us". 
Singing background vocals will be my son Aaron Loeffelbein!  Such a voice!  What a treat!
 In honor of my Dad I will sing in Gaelic and English a beloved Scottish Christmas song Tàladh Chrìosda, The Christ Child Lullaby. 
This album means so much to me because it is inspired by my love for Jesus, my sweet Dad, and yes, Christmas. (My favorite time of the year!)
Once  again I have the pleasure of having Brandon  Bee  as producer and creative advisor. He lends his voice and talents on multiple instruments to the album as well as produces it.
I want to use this platform “gofundme” to offer the opportunity for people to pre-purchase the album or to simply support the endeavor. 
This project will not have a required “price” on it. I am asking for people to pay what they can, what they feel is a reasonable price to pay, or, if they can not pay at all - let me know and I will just give it away. 
The “suggested value” of the album is $10.
I will be adding some fun incentives for you too - this is, after all, a fundraiser so I can pay the expenses of recording!  Packages with a CD, and Digital downloads, lyric sheets handwritten, I will even have available the opportunity to write a song with me, or to have me write one for you!  Watch for the fun Christmas Themed Incentives Packages coming soon!!
I plan to release in November of this year, 2018. 
Thanks and God’s blessings on you!
