Why Help?

We can’t begin to express the depth of our gratitude. Every bit of help counts, and we make every bit go as far as it possibly can towards bringing our music, through the truth of our hearts, into the world.

As musicians (and filmmakers and writers and artists and dreamers and thinkers and jokesters and gigglers etc.), we have put a tremendous amount of time and love to come to this point in spacetime in which we fully believe in the music we have to offer. Individually, we’ve both been writing and studying music since we were wee ones, and have discovered a beautiful collaboration in one another. We thank all the people (and ancestors and animals and plants and stories and spirits and songs) who have inspired, encouraged and helped us along the way. Thank you.

We are committed to taking this leap of faith and sharing our gifts with the world. We plan to regularly release songs and videos for as long as we can envision. We plan to share live performances and offer other extras. We will do more music videos; we have some amazing ideas that we are so excited to share. In addition, we hope to accomplish our first tour upon the completion of our album.

We’ve also started the rewarding and inspiring journey of donating our time and talent at hospitals and other healing places, as an offering to those who really need help, with thanks for all that we have been given in this life. And eventually, we hope to build a studio where we can support and share more positive and powerful music by other kind-hearted musicians.

Our current projects express the hope and belief we carry in our spirits as we do our best to stand up strong in this life.

Asking

We have never been ones to ask for help. However, through experiencing and witnessing some of the challenges that life can bring, in addition to experiencing and witnessing the miracles that can happen when the community comes together in answering a humble call for help, we have learned of the power of asking. Giving and receiving help is a beautiful and holy part of being alive.

We are asking for help, so that we can help.

We have been told by so many of you about how much our music has helped. Some of you tell us how you sing and share and and teach our songs to others, or invite us to sing for your loved ones who are experiencing a challenge. We are so touched and honored by your appreciation, and to be of service in this way.

We have given so much to this dream. We have put our hearts and spirits- the best of who we are- into it. We have spent money and energy, and have made sacrifices. We did this because we believe in it. These songs have brought healing to our spirits, and it is our humble mission to do our absolute best in bringing them to completion, in recorded form and often with video, and offer them to the world to help others. We have a prayer and vision that this music can travel far, reaching the souls who would be uplifted and helped by it.

Our goal is for the music bring good things to as many people as possible, without limitations. Money should not be a barrier, which is why we are offering our music for free. Nonetheless, building a life around honing this craft, and writing, recording and sharing our offerings takes considerable money, time and sacrifice. If you have the means and appreciate our offerings, we simply ask that you remember and consider us and our work and purpose. Your support helps us, and the music, so incredibly much. It’s a huge part of what makes it all possible.

We believe in this precious dream that we’ve held and honed with faith since we were children. We believe in ourselves to make this dream a reality with community and support. And we are now at the point where we need help in order to complete the projects before us, that we care so deeply about. We now have the humble privilege of asking for help.

Please help us help.

Crowdfunding

Crowdfunding is the way of the present and the future. It helps new artists find their momentum, and all artists take control over their own careers. We can work hard and share our gifts in the world in a way that is open, honest and authentic, and feels right to all of us. We can find, feel and trust a foundation of support in the world, from which we can build our dreams and share our most shining selves with everyone.

It can be a very challenging world out there for artists. Even big acts are struggling with how to get by, let alone artists at the beginning of their careers, who especially need support from those who believe in them. It can take a lot to get good, authentic music and videos out there, and it’s not immediately clear how to support it, or be supported by it (especially with the latest streaming platforms). At the same time, we all love and can be deeply enriched by music and art. This is a way to directly support the creative work that you believe in and that speaks to you. This is a way to help. We will build our albums, our videos, our tours, and more, together.

Being directly supported by our PAMA family means that we can make the music we love and hopefully the music you love. We can follow our own hearts, as well as to listen to yours, and collectively make something happen together, on our own terms.

We are doing this together. We love hearing from our PAMA family! Feel free to say hi, share your feedback, update us on your lives or tell us some jokes :). Thank you again for being part of this journey! We are indescribably grateful.
