Wrapping things up for now
over 2 years ago – Wed, Nov 17, 2021 at 06:57:24 PM

Hi! Thank you so much for helping make Looking For Buildings happen! The album has been out for the world to hear for a few weeks now, and things are going well for the most part, despite some extremely unexpected circumstances. Everyone should have all of their rewards at this time — please contact me if there are any problems at all.

I just wanted to check in to make sure everyone got their stuff and all is well! This pretty much wraps up the Kickstarter project. I will let you know when I have any new projects coming up, and I definitely plan to have some!

Again, thank you for making this a success! The album's first review came in this week, so before I go, let me share that with you:

“Pop music. Gorgeous, inviting pop music. What more do you need? Wendi Dunlap‘s new album Looking For Buildings offers your opportunity to fall heart-first into a dreamy, luxurious bed of pure radio-ready bliss. Wendi Dunlap has just the building you’re looking for.” — Carl Cafarelli, Boppin’ (Like The Hip Folks Do)

Thank you, and have a wonderful holiday season! And please do tell your friends about the album!

Hi! As of today, it looks like about 75% of backers have received their rewards! The rest should get them soon, as they've all been shipped (unless you're local and we arranged a pickup). The international packages are being slow as international packages usually are... looks like they are in Florida being processed right now. But all packages are on their way!

I'd like to ask a favor of everyone. If possible, could you post a picture of the items or you with the items, or something like that on your social media? Partially this is because it will just make me super happy to see that you are super happy with your swag! But of course, it's also a good thing to do to promote the album as well.

If you want to send people to the pre-orders page, the address is https://futuremanrecords.bandcamp.com/album/looking-for-buildings.

Please let me know if there are any issues with your rewards!

One more thing. Many of you have already seen this, but for those who haven't, I thought you might get a kick out of the promo video I made. It's a parody of the old K-Tel commercials. The voice is Thom Bowers, who is one of the Kickstarter backers as well as a professional voice actor! 

Cheers, Wendi xoxoxo

Packages on their way!

I dropped the packages off at the Post Office yesterday, and according to the tracking system, it worked this time! They are all in the system and winging their way to you.

There are three of you I haven't shipped to yet, but I've been in touch with you separately about that. Everyone else -- your stuff is on the way! Check your mail for a tracking number which would have gone out late Friday or early Saturday.

Thanks!

Wendi :)

Shipments delayed; here's what happened

It's here!

Today is the day! If your pledge included the digital version of Looking for Buildings, you should be receiving an email any second now with your download code for the album! (It's at the email you gave Kickstarter. Of course, as always with stuff like this, if you don't see it, check your spam folder...) As backers, you are getting your copy of the album early, because I can also announce an official release day for the rest of the world: October 22! Pre-orders on Bandcamp should be open next Friday, so start telling your friends about it soon!

To use your code

The amazing Futureman Records will be putting the record out! So for now, you need to go to their Bandcamp page at https://futuremanrecords.bandcamp.com/yum and enter the code from your email. Then Bandcamp will let you download the music in your choice of several formats. If you have any trouble, let me know!

The other rewards

The keychains are here! And they are so cool! They came out exactly as I hoped.  Check 'em out:

I am very happy with them. I ordered them from PrintGlobe and can recommend them if you have a need to order something similar. There are lots of people selling hotel-style key chains out there, but the price and speed of production at PrintGlobe was the best.

The t-shirts are supposed to be here later today. The cds are supposed to be here very soon.  My current estimation is that I will be able to ship things by next Friday, but I will let you know if that turns out to be a miscalculation.

Thanks, and if you got the digital album today, I hope you like it! Please let me know what you think!
