West My Friend hasn't added a story.
West My Friend has been making quirky, original music for nine and half years. Our second album was nominated for the Canadian Folk Music Award's "Pushing the Boundaries" Award, and when asked to describe our genre we'll reply: cascadian-third-wave-indie-prog-chamber-folk-roots!
Add in the classical music degrees in the band and it was only a matter of time until we decided to make an album with a full orchestra. This project will see us collaborating with the brilliant minds of Adrian Dolan (arranging) and Joby Baker (producing), as well as an orchestra-full of fine musicians. We've been preparing original tunes and we're beyond excited to get into the studio.
But first we need your help! The costs for an album are many: arranging fees, studio time, orchestra fees, album design, cd production, and publicity, to name a few. The best part of this project is that the majority of the money you donate will go directly into the pockets of artists who live and work in our community.
So check out the perks to the right, then donate! And help out by sharing this campaign with your friends.

One of the songs written as a result of this perk from our last fundraiser is going to end up on this EP -- check out the link to hear the song.
Note: songs written as a result of this fundraiser will not be on the upcoming EP -- that's too soon!
Note: Must be in the Victoria area, or elsewhere if it aligns with a future tour (check with us before donating please).
Includes a signed copy of the new CD with your name in the liner notes, and a handwritten thank you card with many, many smiley faces in it.
Note: Subject to scheduling. While reasonable attempts will be made to accommodate differing schedules, the reality of a studio recording is that only certain times will be available. Only one group recording session will be offered to all those who claim this perk. If you are unable to make the scheduled time, this perk will not be reimbursed. But you will have the option of getting a West My T-shirt instead (plus the new CD), as well as our eternal thanks!
