Musician Seth Richard of Kaplan, Louisiana is seeking to raise $2000 in pledges to fund his new musical album by October 15, 2016. Seven backers have given $210.<\/p>\n
“I’m a small town boy,” Richard stated. “I started off in punk rock bands when I was 12 years old.”<\/p>\n
There are six levels in the Kickstarter pledge campaign, ranging from $5 to $100. Each level carries with it promised rewards. For example, the $5 level promises a free download of the album. The highest level guarantees a download, a vinyl recording, a t-shirt, and a spot appearance on the upcoming video to be shot after the album is released.<\/p>\n
This record is intended to be Richard’s newest set of songs as band leader of his rock band Layden and the Lion although his credentials include other band appearances.<\/p>\n
“I’ve played in many bands and had lots of experiences,” he stated. “I started playing by myself when I was 19, touring around the United States, which was unforgettable. I joined up with a group called Without Wanting, a Christian rock group from Kaplan, La, where I had come to meet my best friend Jason Petrey,”<\/p>\n
After a few months Richard and Petrey found it in their hearts that it was time to move on to new things, like starting their own band.<\/p>\n
“Together through the band, we met Noah Henson, guitarist for the Christian rock band Pillar, who [also] recorded a song for us,” Petrey said. “Layden and the Lion displays a passion for writing songs that everyone can relate to, whether it be an up-tempo feel good song, to a mid-tempo lyrically dark song, to a laid back acoustic song about the struggles of day to day life.”<\/p>\n
The new record is to be recorded with Aaron Gillespie of Underoath\/The Almost and Paramore. Gillespie will be producing the record and playing drums on it.<\/p>\n
“This is a huge deal for me and a huge step up,” Richard said. “Now, I have interest from Labels so I want to make a good impression. I want to show I have a strong fan base. Hey, people are already pitching in that I never thought even knew I was playing music”<\/p>\n
Richard’s band was recently robbed, and the perps got away with money and equipment, but the group has promised to persevere through this setback.<\/p>\n
“I’m still dumping all I have into this record,” he stated. “So let’s show them what we got. I am takin precautions in keeping my voice healthy.”<\/p>\n
