First of all, thank you for showing up to read our announcement!
Please watch the following video ...
There's not a lot of money going around these days, and it's true, Hello Kelly really IS feeling the pinch. There are still expenses to be paid for this record and it all takes money - money that we simply don't have right now.
So yes, Hello Kelly nation, we do - seriously and legitimately - need your help!
If our music has ever helped you in some way, or even if you just love the tunes - believe me when I say that I'm begging you to consider donating some money. Usually, it would feel very awkward asking you for something like this - but I know that you guys are very understanding and supportive. When we fell into really tough times and realized we needed a financial miracle, it made all the sense in the world to come to YOU.
The money that you would give won't buy us sneakers or cheeseburgers. So don't worry.
It will help us pay for mixing, artwork, packaging and - most importantly - paying off some existing debts that are holding us back from releasing this new record properly and going back out on the road.
PLEASE consider donating!
