Billy Crum hasn't added a story.
I am in the process of professionally recording a 7 song EP. In
anticipation of it, I'd like to share a few details about it. The CD
will be entitled "Earn Your Scars" and was inspired by
everything in my life from ages 0 to 22. The CD is 100% self-penned
and I am co-producing it with a producer Perry Montauredes & my
best friend Seamus O'Loughlin, who is a professional sound engineer.
The music ranges from Traditional Country/Folk & Americana to
"Bro" Country (haha). If you like Eric Church, Kenny Chesney, Zac Brown Band, Jason Aldean, or
even Taylor
Swift (one song) for that matter, you might like my stuff. My goal
is to use music to inspire young kids who are sick to dream big, shoot
for the stars, and believe that there is a better life for themselves
down the road. If I had the brains of the family I'd be a pediatric
surgeon. Unfortunately, my brother Rob got those so he is doing that.
I was sick as a young kid and I had an amazing family who would come
and make me laugh and smile. They made it so, today, I can only
remember the good parts. This may or may not be something I can
realistically do as a career, but I want to try to make the most of
what I've been given. These experiences and this philosophy inspired
the title-track "Earn Your Scars". My dream is to be a
musician and use the platform to work with kids like I used to be,
make them laugh and smile, raise money for research, and advocate for
under-recognized issues pertaining to their social development after
they become physically healthy.
If you like what I'm trying to do please consider sharing my
music once it is complete next month (fingers crossed) or helping me
in any other way you think you can. Recording runs $50.00 per hour,
and thus far, I have funded the first 4 songs on my own. If you think
you could fund an hour or two, or a few more, I would greatly
appreciate the support and provide you with a free CD once it is
complete as well as a sponsorship credit in the CD itself. In the
event that there is any money left at the completion of the album, the
remaining money will be donated to Cherished Creations, a local
charity that grants wishes to sick kids. Thank you so much!
