Just asking for 60 seconds to check out this Kickstarter and spread the word if you believe it's got the potential to succeed.

This is my son, daughter, band and their first EP. It's being professionally recorded and hopefully the next step towards something bigger. The song in the clip has been produced/edited by a nineties lead-singer in a UK band who got to number 3 in the UK charts (sorry, can't reveal names).

First impression 'Prefab Sprout' rocked up, the mix seems a little harsh for the style, could be mellowed a bit, but it's still pretty awesome. Reckon they could do well on the college/student indie gig market.

Tour,tour,tour. You won't be seeing them much for a few years as I think they got the potential for sure.

@Rolfy, thanks for the feedback. I'm hoping they do well enough to keep me in my old age.

@Matty H, many thanks for your support

I don't have any money to donate sadly, but as a graphic artist and hobbyist audio engineer, should you need any help down the road I'd be happy to pitch in, I think it's great they're trying to do something like this.
Brings back memories of my own band after high school.

I'd like to hear a bit more before investing, but I've found I just keep coming back to this thread. I'm conflicted I'd love to support something like this but my inner skeptic tells me there isn't enough to go off of. I think others may have the same feeling. Regardless, I'll share this with a few others and we'll see

These are from last Summer, showing they can do it live too! The girl in the background isn't in the band, Siobhan is hidden behind the speaker stack. These are vocals, guitar and the Violin was badly amplified by the sound crew. These songs are now performed with Bass Guitar and Drums too, like the 30 second preview.
