Jeremy Loops launches appeal to raise funds for album and tour

Jeremy Loops is to tour the US and the UK in May. Loops is one of 30 acts that has been handpicked from around the world to showcase his talent on a global platform at Musexpo in Los Angeles. Widely known as the United Nations of music conferences Musexpo puts promising musicians on stage in front of 400 of the most powerful people in the music industry, including record label execs, radio directors, festival bookers and TV and video game licensing experts. From LA, the team will fly into New York and London for one-off shows, followed by Brighton for The Great Escape. Loops has been in studio over the last few months creating new material for this tour, some of which will be debuted on his travels.
Jeremy Loops launches appeal to raise funds for album and tour

Musexpo costs USD10 000 for the privilege to play, excluding travel costs. With this in mind and the forthcoming album, Loops has launched an IndieGoGo crowd funding campaign.

Need to raise USD35 000

Loops said: "We need to raise a minimum of USD35 000 to complete the album, as well as bankroll the trip abroad. Every single cent will be spent on refining the music, and creating the absolute best album I am able to. In return for people's support, we're offering a variety of things, primarily the album. We think it will likely be ready in October, which is some time still and so we'll also give backers an EP entitled 'Tiding You Over' to, well, tide you over while you wait for the album. Ha. The EP will contain songs intended for the album too."

Outside of the album, other perks include:
* Attending the album listening party.
* Spending time with us in studio while we complete the album.
* Lifetime access to Jeremy Loops shows.
* Private listening parties, rad merchandise, and much more.
