Hi Friends!
As many of you know, for nearly 2 years now, I've been trying to complete my record....Here is your chance to be part of this momentous event in my career. The record will be an 11 song album featuring some of YOUR favorite Vickie Raye songs. Your contribution will cover recording expenses, producer fees, pressing, graphics as well as aiding in the release of my Sophomore single.
In addition to the recording, I'm looking to send "Leaning On The Grace Of God" (possibly the best song I may ever be honored to write) to radio airwaves. Many of you supported my last effort at radio and I'm looking to you all again to complete the biggest mission yet! To be successful, we need to get it out there, get the promotion team in place and get my Puerto Rican butt out on the road to promote it at the stations across the country. As you can imagine that takes money. Feel free to take a listen to last year's single "Face" (Produced by Norrisong Productions) that reached the Top 100 and stayed there for 11 weeks!! You can be part of the next run to the top! We have big dreams for "Leaning On The Grace Of God" this year...and YOU can say that YOU were part of it's success!!
Any money raised above the base amount will be used to make all of the above even BIGGER and BETTER....
