It's been a little over a week since I started this fundraising page, and the response has been amazing! Thanks so much to everyone for helping out and for spreading the word.
I'm extremely grateful for your generosity.
Recording is about to begin...

THE DETAILS
My first album, Hammy’s Secret Life, was released in 2007. Then in 2008, I made This Is Awesome, a collaboration with longtime musical partner Dafydd Hughes. These albums were completely self-funded...and I'm still paying off the debt!
I’m just about to begin recording my next album, Aloha Supreme, and I want to make it sound fantastic. And that requires money.
Any donations would be greatly appreciated. The money will be used to pay for studio time, musician's fees, mixing, mastering and manufacturing.
In return for your donation, you will get many goodies. See the list above for details.
ABOUT THE MUSIC
When I set out to write this music, I wanted to feature the lap steel more than I had on my previous albums. The result…
Aloha Supreme is a collection of lyrical, wordless, genre-bending songs, with melodies played (mostly) on lap steel.
THE PLAYERS
the band:
* Christine Bougie – lap steel, guitars
* Dafydd Hughes – keys
* Paul Mathew – bass
* Kieran Adams – drums
some guests:
* Bryden Baird – trumpet
* Andrew Downing – cello
* Julia Hambleton – bass clarient
and my producer...
* Dean Drouillard – Dean produced my last two albums, and he’s my 5th Beatle.
TRACK LISTING
* Chet & Chomsky
* Aloha Supreme
* Blanche & Rose
* Take This, Leave That
* Me Her
* Bobcat
* Hammy’s Revenge
* I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times (Beach Boys cover)
RELEASE DATE
October 2010

I had hoped to see you open for Marwencol tonight, but the rain will likely cancel the event. Too bad. I love the tracks on MySpace. I wish your project all the best! Looking forward to the CD.
