Monkey House Studio

Hey everybody, Don Bright up here. Keyboard player, singer, songwriter, band leader, monkey house. Very excited because we are wrapping up edits and mixes for our sixth alb We're not doing it Friday, the alb And I'm not just excited about the alb It's also because for the first time were planning a dedicated tour to get out in front of audiences and play stuff from the new alb So here's the deal. We need If you don't know Monkey House, you should know that it started as a studio project and in fact all the band members are top tier studio people, very in demand. But we've also had the pleasure of having a long list of pros and well-known people play with us over the years, including people And the core guys, that's Mark, Pat and Justin, have contributed to alb For my part, I won an Emmy Award and I do, while I'm dropping names, I should make clear that it was Elmo who gave me the Emmy. Yeah, that Elmo. If you guys know Monkey House, you'll know that our goal is always to make the experience absolutely the best it can be and that we wouldn't be thinking about undertaking a tour unless we could match the quality of the alb We want to make sure that set list, venue, acoustics, sound system, all of that stuff is in place to the best level that it can be. And of course, undertaking a world tour is no small thing and we're hoping This crowdfunding campaign is going to help us put together the money in advance so that we can hire personnel, book venues, and most importantly, figure out which cities and towns we are going to visit. If you catch my drift. Contribution amounts go from the small to the considerable. Please know that any amount helps and the rewards include things And we do have special perks for fans who can help get other people involved in the campaign and bring other people on board. And in one of them is I'm going to be going one one with people and doing things That'll be fun. I got to tell you whenever we get in the studio, everybody's first question is, are we going tour this one? Are we going tour this one? Everybody's chomping at the bit to get out there and hit the road. And that's because there's nothing quite It'still nothing compared to doing it in front of an audience and feeling everything going two ways in a room, in a town where you've got some fans. So here's the deal. We want to get to your town. We want to play this music live. We cannot wait. So see you in your town. See you in 2019. Thank you. Thank you.
