RadioDriveBy Kickstarter Campaign

“Sounds of a city on the beach seem to be calling me, calling me home…” reads the opening verse of the new single, Sunday. And calling them it has, RadioDriveBy of Tempe, Arizona has started a Kickstarter project in hopes of purchasing a trailer to put their equipment in that would allow them to begin touring around the country, starting with the west coast.
From left to right:

RadioDriveBy consist of members Trent Clark, lead vocals; Adam Simmons, guitar/ vocals; David Glosser, guitar; Evan Yuen, bass and Austin Galvin, drums. They have been an unsigned band for a quite awhile now who have been paying for the use of studio time as well as other musical needs out of pocket and as you all know it can get a tad bit pricey.  Thus evolving the need of the Kickstarter project, the boys are in need of $2,000 and are more than halfway there standing still at $1,099. They are asking for a minimum donation of $1 and personally I believe we all have that extra dollar to spare. Not that it should matter but the boys are also generous enough to award those who donate a certain amount of money.
Kickstarter Rewards:
$5 or more: You will receive 3 free song downloads from past releases and will get to sign your name on the inside of trailer once it is purchased.
$15 or more: You will receive a free digital copy of new RadioDriveBy EP (when released) and all previous rewards.
$25 or more: You will receive a single off the new EP for free before it is released, a signed “thank you” note from the band and all previous rewards.
$50 or more: You will receive two RDB bracelets, two unreleased demo recordings and all previous rewards.
$75 or more: You will receive a phone call from the band, a RBD shirt and all previous rewards.
$100 or more: RadioDriveBy will play an acoustic session for you in person if you’re an Arizona resident or via Skype for those out of Arizona, entire EP before it has been released and all previous awards.
$250 or more: A snare drum or bass guitar signed by the whole band along with all previous rewards.
$500 or more: A Gretsch Electric Guitar signed by the band along with all previous rewards.
$1,000 or more: A member of the band will get your name tattooed on them and will write you a personalized song.

I wouldn’t hold my breath much longer over the tattoo prize seeing as they have already passed the halfway mark. If you’re considering making a donation all the information you need is here and even though I have no affiliation with the band, I want to thank you for what you’ve done. Keep in mind that you’re doing so much more than tossing a few bucks around, you’re contributing to making the dreams of five young men come true and who are we to deny that from them?
