Kapipal

My Kapipal project has raised a respectable $180 to date ($160 through the site, and an out-of-blue $20 cash-a-roo from someone I ran into one day in Toronto). Friends, there is plenty of room for additional contributors! Here’s your chance to get involved in Karyn Ellis music in a direct, meaningful way. Read the pitch & contribute!

Tour wrapped up Sunday. Thanks everyone who came out to celebrate! Some amazing press for the new record, which I’ll post soon. Meantime, read some on my Sonicbids Site, including an "Essential Track Pick" in Canada’s National newspaper, THE GLOBE AND MAIL!

KAPIPAL

In a world where everyone downloads music for free, how do records get made? Community fund raising has become the new — and possibly the only — way for independent artists, those without any financial backing, to do it.

If every one who likes my music & wants me to keep making it contributed $5 to my Kapipal project, we’d more than reach my goal of $3500! And if everyone pitched in $10… why, the cost of recording my new album would be paid off and I could actually afford to make another one!

Seriously… read my pitch & contribute!

Just arrived home from the first half of the Ontario / Quebec tour with Janine Stoll… what a great week! The Cornerstone in Guelph last night was super way to end the run! We also visited Maxwell’s, The Phog, London Music Club & Foster’s Inn. Thanks to everyone who came out.

Now I’m in Toronto for a couple of days playing catch up before we head out again on Wednesday… this time, going east — Peterborough, Kingston, Montreal, Wakefield (near Ottawa), Pembroke. Be sure to send your friends out our way!

See my tour page for details and a link to the facebook event page. Hope see you and your friends at one of the shows!
