Help South Lake Tahoe musician Jesse Kalin fulfill a dream

Hello family, fans and Facebook friends, I hope your summer is shining brightly on you all.
I'm excited to tell you about my newest music project that I just launched with Kickstarter. With two records behind me and many years living, playing cover/original music on the road and at home, I'm finally ready to record my first SOLO CD. For the last two years I've been putting my heart and soul into writing my original music and now have so much material that I need to make a record.
I couldn't have gone this far without all the love and support of my family and frieds and loyal fans, and I want you to know how much your support has meant to me.

Below is the text from Jesse submitted to Kickstart.com. Go here to read and join.

A long time coming, 'My dream is finally coming true, my first original SOLO CD'

My name is Jesse Kalin. I am a singer/songwriter currently living in Lake Tahoe California, performing all over Northern California, the US and Europe. For the past few years I've been writing my new original songs, whether at home or on the road, for my first SOLO CD.

I'm very excited to have this opportunity to involve YOU my friends and fans to help me fulfill my dream of raising $14,000 to fund my new album. Since I am an independent artist with no record label behind me, I've put together a budget plan to make this album:

· FIRST CLASS MUSICIANS: $2,000

· STUDIO TIME: $2,600

· PRODUCTION, ENGINEERING & MIXING: $5,000

· MASTERING THE CD: $2,000

· CD DESIGN & PRESSING: $2,400

If we can raise the funds, I'll be able to make my dream album and deliver it right to your front door.

**If we do not reach $14,000.00, the project will not be funded, (your credit card will not be charged,) and the rewards will not be sent out. So let's do this!!**

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Check out the reward options on the right & pick your favorite! --> Choose from digital download of the CD before the release, official tour T-Shirts, personalized songs, voice lessons, private home concerts, and more.
HELP SPREAD THE WORD through Facebook, Twitter, blogs, email, texts, telephone, and snail mail…. Your word will be wildly helpful in making this project successful!
If by chance we raise MORE than our goal, the extra money will go toward promotion, radio, touring, merchandise... all the stuff that goes into making an independent record release a huge success!

I can't thank you enough for all the support and love you've given me along the way... and I can't wait to say we did this together! Live life, love music and ROCK n’ ROLL!

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

Love, Jesse
