Overview

Hello world! I’m Bianca Jazmine, an artist in the beautiful city of Los Angeles, CA.

I began as a solo artist in sunny South Florida, writing tunes and performing alone until I paired up with Colin and other talented musicians. Soon enough, we began to play shows as a full band all around the state; and we found that the audience was captured by our unique mix of authenticity, humor, and wisdom. This expanded to out-of-state shows and conferences that brought us to performances from New Orleans to Philadelphia. 

We absolutely loved sharing our music and being interactive with our audience, but when the pandemic hit, it brought live shows to an end and halted the tracks for so many artists. We’ve spent this time writing, reflecting, and perfecting our craft so we could come back even stronger and transform our sound to the next level. 

We’re super excited about the material we’ve been working on and are so ready to take this next step, but first, we need your help!

We've got a collection of great songs ready to record -- this Plaid Dog campaign is the final step toward creating our first ever, professionally produced studio album.

This campaign is raising funds for my professionally recorded album with Carter Sanders in Boston, MA. Carter is a Boston-based producer and engineer with experience working with both established and up-and-coming musicians. Together, we’re digging into our original material, writing arrangements, and reaching out to local musicians to bring the songs to life.

We’ve been able to cover the costs of recording and producing one song, which is ready for you to check out right here on this page. This first song is called “Losing Sleep,” and you can check it out below!

While we were able to fund the recording process for "Losing Sleep" on our own, to create an album of songs of this quality, studio costs add up quickly. With that said, this campaign can give us a unique opportunity to collaborate and make great art together. Your donation will cover the following costs of my project:

1. Pre-Production: This is where everything starts. We’ll start crafting the arrangements for each song slated for the album, hold rehearsals to fine-tune the songs and arrangements, and talk through new and exciting ideas for how to approach the recording process.

2. Recording: This is when we enter the studio and start capturing the music and where the songs become what you'll hear on this album. This campaign will play a huge role in making sure we have enough time to capture great performances for every member of the band.

3. Mixing & Mastering: Each track will get mixed to create the right balance between instruments, texture and color that make up a track. As a final step, the album will be mastered from beginning to end so that the listening experience is cohesive and carefully choreographed from start to finish.

And what will you get for your generosity and support? So many awesome things!

We are so appreciative and grateful for any support you can lend to this campaign. In exchange for your generosity, we've put together a really exciting group of gifts that are available exclusively through your participation in this campaign.

Check out some examples below and a full list to the right!

It's hard to express how much this project would change our lives.

A well-recorded album would open a lot of doors for our group in terms of future opportunities and an expanded audience. We've made demo quality recordings in the past, but the world deserves only the best we can give: a professionally recorded, high-quality album that sounds the way we've always envisioned our music should sound. For those reasons and more, this project is critical to our future growth as a band. You have the power to help us make this project a reality!

Our families and friends have all been incredibly nurturing of our talents. Without that early encouragement, we would be nowhere near where we are today. We can't wait to show fans old and new what we can do!

Thank you so much for checking out our campaign page. We can't wait to share this music with you.
