<p> The official release of &quot;Restless&quot; is on July 1st!&nbsp;&nbsp; You should have already received your CDs, mp3s, posters, demos, and everything else that you requested.&nbsp; If you didn&#39;t get them, please get in touch with me.&nbsp; I want to make sure you&#39;re happy.&nbsp; I want to thank you again for making this album possible, and for being a part of one of the best times of my life.&nbsp;&nbsp; Thank you so much!</p>
<p> I&#39;m planning to mail all CDs, posters and demos on Monday!&nbsp;&nbsp; If you have changed your address in the last nine months please send me your updated address to contactamy@obenski.net.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Thank you!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> ~Amy</p>
<p> This is so exciting!&nbsp; I just sent the pre-release mp3s to all my backers.&nbsp; Make sure to check your email!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> I would love to hear what you think of the music!&nbsp;&nbsp; I feel I must tell you it is VERY different from my previous albums;&nbsp; more lively, more electric and eclectic.&nbsp;&nbsp; Enjoy!&nbsp;&nbsp; The physical albums are delayed about a month due to some setbacks with the art.&nbsp;&nbsp; Right now it looks like I&#39;ll be mailing them out at the end of May instead of the end of April.&nbsp; Sit tight please!&nbsp; I&#39;m doing it as quickly as I can while making sure it&#39;s my best effort.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /> <br /> Thanks to you so much for making this happen.&nbsp; I can&#39;t do this without you!<br /> <br /> Love,<br /> <br /> Amy Obenski</p> <p> &amp; The Carbone Band</p>
<p> If things go according to plan I will have the official MP3s ready for download by April 1st.&nbsp;&nbsp; So be looking for an email from me with download information!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> The fundraiser has continued via PayPal.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you&#39;d like to donate more or you have friends or family who might like to donate, please share this page with them:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; http://www.amyobenski.com/amy-obenski-the-carbone-band-fundraiser/</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> We still need about $700 more to cover all the costs.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Thank you so much for your continuous support!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> ~Amy</p>
<p> I&#39;m happy to announce that Part One of our fundraiser has ended and we raised 114% of our goal!&nbsp;&nbsp; My next step is to decide how to continue to accept donations to meet Part Two goal of raising 1100 more Euros to produce the CDs.&nbsp;&nbsp; My current plan is to create a PayPal page where you can continue to donate as long as you wish.&nbsp;&nbsp; Please let me know if you have any suggestions for me.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> As far as sending you your rewards, I would like to wait until the album is finished so I can send you a whole package at once, rather than in two parts. &nbsp; What I will do is send you a personal note and a CD instead of the I.O.U. letter good for one CD.&nbsp; I think the CD will be in my hands by April, so you will receive your package soon after.&nbsp;&nbsp; Please let me know if this is a problem, and I will mail you your other items now instead.&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Thanks so much!&nbsp;&nbsp; And I&#39;ll keep you posted.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Love,</p> <p> ~Amy</p>

<p> Hi!&nbsp; I&#39;m writing to say a big Thank You to all of your for help funding the next album!&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#39;s already 70% funded, and we still have 15 days left.&nbsp;&nbsp; It&#39;s great news!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> This weekend the Carbone Band invited the students from La Maison des Arts to record for the new album.&nbsp;&nbsp; All of this was done while I was in California. I wish I could have been there. &nbsp; It just amazes me that everyone is willing to do this for my music.&nbsp; It has taken on a life of it&#39;s own!&nbsp; Enclosed are some photos of the recording day.&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> We also still need to find more backers for the fundraiser especially since we need to raise more than the goal to create the physical album.&nbsp; Please share this with your friends, family and colleagues that you think would love the music too.&nbsp;&nbsp; You can send them the English link:&nbsp;&nbsp; http://www.kisskissbankbank.com/amy-obenski-the-carbone-band-part-i</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> or the French link:&nbsp; http://www.kisskissbankbank.com/fr/projects/amy-obenski-the-carbone-band-part-i<br /> <br /> Thank you all so much!<br /> <br /> Take Care,<br /> ~Amy</p> <p> <img alt="Img_2269" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/51589/IMG_2269.JPG" /></p> <p> <img alt="P1140554" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/51591/P1140554.JPG" /> <img alt="P1140668" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/51592/P1140668.JPG" /> <img alt="P1140565" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/51594/P1140565.JPG" /></p>
