Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne Solo Album Kickstarter
« on: April 04, 2020, 12:37:17 PM »

I've been lurking here for around 10 years now, I hope you won't mind me using my first post for a little shameless promotion.

I am an English folk singer and melodeon and anglo concertina player- some of you may be familiar with my work through the very nice thread that was started on melodeon.net about 2 years ago: http://forum.melodeon.net/index.php/topic,21437.msg258035.html#msg258035 (thank you very much to everyone for their comments on there!)

I've launched a Kickstarter to raise funds for my second solo album which I am planning to release at the end of the year. This album has been in planning for about 9 months, and unfortunately the current situation with Covid-19 in the UK has left me without work for the foreseeable future and therefore without funds to produce the album. I am therefore asking anyone that is interested to consider supporting the project through Kickstarter, in exchange for a range of rewards, including advance copies of the album, skype lessons, bespoke tunes, song requests, right through to your own gig.

If you are interested, the kickstarter page is here: http://kck.st/2UFvMWE

Thank you very much for reading.

Thanks for your support everyone.

Thanks for the welcome Anahata! I've had this account for about 10 years just never got round to using it. I've just been lurking in the shadows here.

Hi Cohen,
Welcome aboard.
Have backed you, seeing as I can't catch up with you in a Wensleydale workshop, this a bonus!
Good luck with the album.
cheers

Glad you've finally put your head above the parapet, Cohen. Nice to see you here on Melnet  :||:
I've just backed you; looks like you'll have the problem of what to do with the extra money as you have exceeded your Kickstarter target already  (:)
Enjoy making the album, it will be something nice for us all to look forward to later this a year.

Nice to see you on here, Cohen. I've backed your new CD and I look forward to its release.

I hope you feel disposed to contribute to melnet discussions during this period of house arrest.

Possibly a record “lurk” 🤔 Welcome to the forum. Look forward to more 😀 I recall with pleasure Lester’s heads up on your playing skills, few years back now

“Kick” on it’s way 😉

Hi Cohen, the wife & I were really looking forwards to our annual season starter at Sing in the Spring in a few days and meeting you and the rest of the regulars again.  See you on the other side, Nigel ( and Sue )  Contribution made, and looking forwards to hearing the outcome.

Glad to see you're passed your Kickstarter target -- best of luck with the new album, the first one's great :-)

Thanks to everyone again for contributing and for your kind words.
It's a shame that I won't be seeing you all over the summer to say thank you in person.
With all my newfound free time I might be posting on here a little more regularly!
