New album Song Sponsorship!!!

Hello everyone!

Thanks to you, “Peace, Love & Horses” was released in March 2011.  Approximately 50% of the studio recording costs for were obtained through fundraising and song sponsorships. We sincerely hope you are as happy as we are with the quality of the songs and recordings, and feel confident that your investment was worthwhile. Thank you!

We’re excited to announce that preparations are underway for the next album to be released in spring 2013.  100% of funds for the studio recording have already been secured through music revenue earned during the 2011 season! Wow!!! However, we are still seeking $3,600 in funding for post-recording costs (mastering, CD art design, CD printing, etc.).
 
We invite you and anyone interested to become a part of this next album through song sponsorship. This time, a song can be sponsored for a much lower price tag of $300 per song ($200 less than the 2011 release!). 12 songs X $300 per sponsor = $3,600. We are also offering a bigger bang for your buck!
  • Name or business name in the liner notes of the CD cover. 
  • Name or business name, and web address (if applicable), printed under the lyrics section of the sponsored song.
  • Name or business name, plus web address (if applicable), plus your company logo (if applicable) featured on http://www.jaredrogerson.com
  • Name or business name, plus your company logo featured on the official banner that will be displayed at live performances (where possible), until the release of the next album (~2 years).
We are excited for this new project and expect the results to be even bigger and better than the last! As our music continues to expand and become more widely recognized, know that you or your business will be identified by others as a supporter of quality music representative of Western values.  The project is proceeding quickly; deadline to become a song sponsor is Nov 30th, 2012.  In-kind sponsorship, (ex. advertising, etc., valuing $300) may be considered.

You can purchase your sponsorship online through PayPal at:
 http://www.jaredrogerson.com/donate.html with your debit or credit card by clicking ‘Donate.’ Then simply enter the dollar amount. You will receive a follow-up email from Jared Rogerson to collect your information for the CD, banner, and website, and to help you select the song you would like to sponsor. Song selection is on a first come/first serve basis. You may sponsor as many songs as you would like, but no more than two different sponsors per song.  If you would rather sponsor by check or money order, please contact Jared Rogerson directly at jared@jaredrogerson.com or 307-231-0610.  Feel free to contact Jared at any time if you have questions.

If $300 is too much for your pocket book to handle (totally understand), we are happy to accept any donation for the project at: http://www.jaredrogerson.com/donate.html.  Just click ‘Donate’ and enter the amount you would like to contribute. Thanks so much!!!
Jared Rogerson will be performing each of these songs live at a solo, acoustic performance at the Rock Rabbit in Pinedale, WY - Friday, November 30th.
