Got this bulletin this morning from SAJ regarding his Kickstarter project to fund his second CD:

Hey everyone! It’s a beautiful day here in central Mississippi USA… could have something to do with the fact that

WE DID IT!

We raised $17,065 towards the cost of completing and promoting my next album, Going Somewhere. Thanks so much to the 261 backers who stepped up to donate. I will never forget you… in fact, I plan to carry around a list of all your names for the rest of my life. It’s really difficult to express adequately the feeling that your support gives me, but it’s really great.

In the next few days, I will be sending all pledgers a survey that will ask for your mailing address, email address, and (depending on the size of your pledge/reward) some other information. I will also be posting updates on the album’s progress over the next few months. I’ve got some cool surprises in store.

Anyway… thanks so much again. And for those of you who weren’t able to pledge, I still appreciate your support and interest in my music. I hope to see all of you at a show soon.

Best, SAJ
