My band BlackWolf are 'Pledging' for our debut album!

teh_captain · 13 Apr 2013 at 10:53

Off the back of our debut E.P 'Taking Root' last year we have decided to use the Pledge route to make our debut album!

If you're not familiar with Pledge it's a very simple idea. You 'pledge' to basically pre-order the album (the minimum being £8 for the download version) and if we reach our 100% target you'll get our album as soon as it's done before anyone else/general release! There's also extra exclusives such as the album on CD, extra tracks, signed sticks/lyric sheets and for us to come to your home and perform an acoustic set! It really involves the fans all the way through the whole process and adds a real personal touch.

Bands such as Bring Me The Horizon, The Subways, Ginger Wildheart and Funeral For A Friend have all used Pledge to great success.

We launched our campaign 3 days ago and have already reached a whopping 38% of our target; it's massively humbling and we're so grateful for the support we've received thus far. If you like a bit of soulful/bluesy hard rock 'n' roll then take a look at our Pledge page - www.pledgemusic.com/projects/ukblackwolf - we really appeciate every bit of support we get

If you haven't heard of us have a mooch at our Facebook page - www.facebook.com/ukblackwolf or www.ukblackwolf.com. Maybe even give us a 'like' if your ears are happy

Thanks for reading!

Which one of these fine-looking gentlemen is you then?

This t-shirt better be a close-up of your face and it better be hand delivered!

Second from the right if i'm remembering another thread right.

Kid on the right looks like he's just finished an 8 year stint of world of warcraft.

As you're local that could be arranged

Haha that's John the lead guitarist, and he does actually play a lot of Skyrim

Just listened to "Stairway Ticket" and am significantly impressed

Very good stuff dude

Good luck with your pledgemusic

What do you play? Or are you the singer?

teh_captain · 14 Apr 2013 at 10:13

The guy at the back that no-one notices - the drummer

Thanks for the kind words dude, really appreciate it

So in 4 days you've already made 41% of your pledge ?

Don't feel too sad about that. The drummers are always the hot ones.

Look at Harry Judd.

We're on 44% now! I can't quite believe it to be honest, it's very humbling. We've obviously got to raise the rest but with 57 days to go i'd like to think we can get there!

teh_captain · 13 Jun 2013 at 14:02

A bit of bump! We've got 27 days to go on our Pledge and have currently raised 89% of our target!

This is pretty amazing (to me) and we've got a real chance to reach 100% in this last month, considering we're a relatively unknown band. If you're interested have a mooch at our Facebook and Pledge pages

Cheers!

Just had a listen and I can hear a lot of Soundgarden

Consider a CD version pledged in a moment.

No tats? What kind of band is this

*lightbulb*

What about another Pledge entry to get the band branded?

Tibbz2 · 15 Jun 2013 at 11:20

If I get the money I will be putting it down on this, just listened to one of your songs. Awesome!

Only one of us has a tat at the moment - Ben the bassist has Darth Vader on a space hopper...and the space hopper is the Death Star

I'm planning to get a tat in the near future!

Just to let you all know...we have smashed our target so the début album is ON! We're at 107% so thank you to everyone who has Pledged - we're still writing and will set out to make a kick arse album

If you haven't but would like to you can still Pledge all the way up to the release. The exclusives will stay up for a little while longer too but not sure how long.

If we've peaked your interest and you live in/near Bristol or London our next two shows are headliners in those cities! We're playing the Louisiana in Bristol on Saturday 3rd August and the the 100 Club in London on Friday 30th August. If you'd like a ticket point your browser to our online store http://ukblackwolf.bigcartel.com

Thank you

Haha just listened to the song Seeds on youtube. Nice 5 string bass and bass tapping solo

I like the sound of your ride too
