Ginger Wildheart 555%WWW.M4TOGRAPHY.CO.UK - Features In BookletEarlier on this year Ginger Wildheart opened a remarkable pledge to raise money to make a new album, deemed to be the album of the fans the title was unknown as was the content, the fans had nothing to go by apart from a small video from Ginger and Gav asking for pledges and directing you to the Pledge Music website, not knowing how this idea would take off Ginger had set the target and given 60 days to reach it otherwise the whole album would stay as a concept and the money would never be taken from the pledger's accounts.
However the security of the money back guarantee was not necessary as 100% of the target funds were achieved no more than 6 hours into the 60 Day pledge, and at the end of the 60 days the pledge was up to a whopping never before seen 555% with this the name of the album was created. this is the first time pledge music has been used to create such an impact and shows the sheer fan-base that are out there and willing to back their preferred artists. There were different tiers of pledge where the fans could purchase the album before it was made and really become a part of the action, starting at a mere £10 for a digital download of the 3 discs and a copious amount of updates including video footage of the band in the writing and recording processes, so you the fan can see where your money is going and watch the album evolve, this was very much two sided as the fans could comment and say what they liked about the direction of the songs, the band also let the fans decide what songs went on to the commercial release of the 10 track album called 100% The 555% pledge only album and the commercial release 100% was recorded with the help of and features fellow recording artists Random Jon Poole, Rich Battersby, Willie Dowling, Chris Catalyist, Denzel and new member of the crew Victoria Liketde, The campaign has also been nominated by Classic Rock as their event of 2012. There are many reasons why this campaign means a lot to me, As many of you may know by now I have been a lifelong fan of The Wildhearts and I am founder of The Ginger And The Wildhearts UK Street Team, and also as I truly believe that in my eyes this brings a whole new lease of life to the music industry and new hope for us all, The independent artist has evolved and shone through the light of the corporate bull that says we have to have a child with a haircut and auto-tune selling music because the girls at school like the way he looks rather than his music. The X-factor generation we are not ! I am proud to say that WWW.M4TOGRAPHY.CO.UK is the only website that features in the booklet for the vinyl and CD Triple disc release of the album and can be seen here.
