The pianist at our church did Kickstarter for a Christmas album.  It was successful, and it was awesome!  Here's what his looked like (it's all done):  https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1641974272/advent-and-christmastide

Thanks, Ken. I'll give it a look.

Sean, I have never used one except to contribute. A friend of mine is using Go-Fund-Me to raise money for his CD. Here is a link to his campaign:  https://www.gofundme.com/normwilliams

He seems to be doing well with it. I am not sharing this to ask for contributions, only to help you to see how someone else is doing what you want to do.

The band I play in, The Mound City Slickers, are kicking around tunes to record for a new CD that we'd hope to release next Spring. One of the ideas we've talked about is crowd sourcing the funding for the CD. Of course, being the musical promotion "geniuses" we are (completely not), we have no experience with this. Does anyone on these boards have experience and an inclination to give us some pointers? Best sites to use? Do you absolutely need a video? Etc.
