Hello there. We're a mostly-Irish, currently San Francisco based indie band called I Am Not Lefthanded. We've released 2 EPs so far, and a number of enthusiastic - if occasionally perplexing - videos, which you can check out at: www.youtube.com/iamnotlefthanded
If you're meeting us for the first time, you can download our free catch-up EP, Previously on I Am Not Lefthanded from www.iamnotlefthanded.com/music.html
Last year, we raised $11,000 with the help of you and people like you, to record our first full-length album, The Fire & The Sigh. We've just finished writing, recording and mixing it - it's being mastered in Seattle by the awesome John McCaig as you read this.
We have just been invited to showcase the new album at North by Northeast in Toronto in June. It's Canada's top indie music festival - their equivalent of America's South by Southwest. Last October, we were asked to play at Toronto's Indie Week. We had an amazing time and met some brilliant people, including the head of NXNE itself, who advised us to apply.
We're so thrilled to be invited back, but we've spent every penny we raised on finishing the album. We know that you guys have been fantastic to help us get this far. We wouldn't be doing this without your support and we're so excited to share the new album with you.
We can't do this without you - if we can't raise this money, we're going to have to turn down this opportunity.
If you can donate just $1, that'll help us get that bit closer to our goal. And don't worry, even if we can't make it to Canada, we're full of plans to release the album online and on the road - we've been cooped up in the studio for too long.
Thanks for taking the time to read this,
- Kathryn, Daniel & Benji
