Abram Wilson has signed with fan funding engine Sellaband, raising money for the 2010 Life Paintings tour. He’s the first jazz musician to do so.
We talked this morning. The fundraising has just gone live. At the start of our conversation $700 had been pledged. By the end, not much more than five minutes later, it had gone up to $730.
There are three support levels with a range of benefits: Believer, entry level, is $15, Tour Manager costs $60 and Producer is $300, above that I would guess it’s negotiable! (Scroll down for the full details.)
Wilson has been busy in the last couple of weeks. After well-attended gigs by his quartet in Milton Keynes and Canterbury, Life Paintings was launched last Saturday on the South Bank. Next up in London is a gig on November 14th at the Albany in Deptford as part of the London Jazz Festival. Prince Charles’ Birthday, of course….
I wrote a preview of the album launch having listened to the album HERE
