I'll follow you on Twitter for a YEAR!

Your name will appear in the special "Thank you" section of my new CD!

 

********  I've reached the minumum needed to make the EP! ACE  *********** 

***********  BUT *********** 

If people keep pledging, it means I will be able to pop another track (or two, or three...) on the EP depending on the extra funds raised. I could also consider a tour, so please keep pledging. That would be very kind.

So if you haven't pledged, maybe you might consider it....? 

There's still a few spaces left to be on the front of the new EP! (Here's an example of the sizing of the photo. It will look much prettier than this) :)

 

Or beautiful lyric bottles, lyrics sheets, Tshirts, bags etc :)

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you xx

KAL LAVELLE -

Here's a little bit about me... 

I'm an Irish singer-songwriter now living in London. I began playing guitar after winning £1000 in a Mars Bar when I was 10 yrs old. With the money, I bought my mother a washing machine and for myself, my very first guitar. 

I'll be honest, I'm scared out of my nelly about doing this next EP, but the thought that you guys will be involved, makes me so much happier. I don't have a label, management (or a washing machine) ;) but I do have you guys, and you know what? That's all I need. LETS DO THIS! 

 

P.S - If you've never heard of me, here's a wee bit about my music

What kind of music do I write? - I write music that is very honest, possibly too honest ;) It's all about real emotions, real events, so when you listen to my songs, you get a very voyeuristic view into my love life, or lack thereof.

Career highlights - Being iTunes ‘Single Of The Week'. Seeing my first EP ‘Shivers’ climb to number 5 in the iTunes ‘Singer Songwriter’ chart, going on tour with my friend Ed Sheeran (in the UK & Ireland in 2011 & July 2012.), supporting & meeting James Brown & him signing my guitar. Hearing my song 'Breakfast At Tiffany’s' on a BBC drama (it was only for about 30 seconds, but they were the best 30 seconds of my life!).

Quotes -

"The way she sings transports you to that exact moment of heart break and despair that can only come from love lost." - Aissetou Ngom (BBC Switch)

 

"Exquisitely beautiful & raw, it's as if she's talking directly to you!" - Perez Hilton

"Wow!" - Tom Robinson (BBC 6 Music)

 Honestly thank you, this is really making a huge difference in my life.

Kal xxxxx

I'll get a tattoo of your name

£25,000.00 or more : So here's my most mad idea. I currently have no tattoos. But I am prepared to get a tattoo of your name somewhere on my body (I get to choose where).

Please don't tell my mother!
