Crowdfunding since 2010

Somethin' Old & Somethin' New - Somethin' Else

My 2nd jazz-album is almost complete. Me and my band are a jazz quintet from southern Germany and the North of Switzerland. We have dedicated ourselves to the jazz of the 40s and 50s. After the Nat King Cole tribute recording "Gentlemen are hard to find" (2011) we added many new songs to our repertoire. So it was about time to record another album. This time around we did it without a record label. Therefore we invested even more enthusiasm into the project and now hope for your support!

What is this project all about?

Basically it's about this .... klick and have a listen:

http://switzerland-productions.com/martinlechner/trailer.mp3

When we started to make music together, we did not realize how wonderfully you can blend Jazz and Pop. (well, after all it's not that easy)
I discovered my passion for being a Jazz/Soul singer rather late. The rest of the band are studied Jazz cats. They accompanied me doing my first steps in Jazz a few years ago. The other way around my musical past (15 years as a professional DJ and the love for soul music) allowed me to show the guys something from a different perspective .
Out of this diversity of the band, Soul, Pop and Jazz songs emerged in a very natural way.

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

We want to capture our vision of music on a CD and make it accessible to those who like Pop music but don't get anything out of the mainstream category. We would like to cater to all the Jazz lovers and to those who like to discover something new. Music lovers who prefer not to dance, or folks that perceive Jazz as old and dusty, or as stressful and confusing …

Why would you support this project?

If you are into Jazz, Soul and Pop music - you are at the right place.
Our album is an expression of our passion for music and we like to pick our songs out of any genre and decade.
As we think that music artists in general need to free themselves of profit - maximizing record labels, we persue the most direct way: recordings from the music artists directly to the audience. Feel free to buy a CD right here for 15 €.

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

With the money and your support , we will pay:

  • Mixing
  • Mastering
  • Design/Artwork
  • Pressing


of our album.
if we exeed our goal, we will : ... not wait another 5 years to make an album !!
