Story

In 2021, I created a kickstarter to support the recording and production of my album "Moon Waves". Released in 2022, I was able to use to momentum of this album to Tour. The support I found was overwhelming, I was able to create my dream vinyl, create a brand for myself and tour the next 3 years singing those songs and meeting new people with the music made from this album. Because of you, this was possible.

Following the release of "Moon Waves", I continued working with my producer Zach Zurn who I developed an amazing creative relationship with. His knowledge pushed me out of my comfort zone, and I started to work on my next set of songs. The first one to follow was a song called "Burn Out".

After my single Burn Out was released, I noticed a growth in myself as an artist, and a growth in my fan base. I wanted to continue to try new things and trust my team of creators. My next goal was to complete a fuller body of work, with quality production that could continue to expand my abilities and listeners.

Completely self funded, I worked at Carpet Booth Studios to continue the EP. My next single "Got It Good", a western-pop love song which was accompanied by a music video featuring friends - turned band mates. This would be the spark that would engite my live full band project "Brooke Surgener & The Bandits".

2025 was my biggest year yet. Me and my band spent a month touring opening up for First To Eleven, and were given a handful of incredible opportunities. I played stages I had seen my favorite bands play. I think once I opened myself up to explore creatively & trust in the musicians around me, I remembered why I loved music again. I would continue to write and record at this time. Favoring quality over quantity, I spent the funds I'd make playing local gigs to invest in this EP project, something I decided to call "ALL IN".

I've waited until now to share the EP, because I wanted it to be completed. Its taken a few years for it to come together, but I couldn't be more proud of the songs on this album. And now its ready to be shared with YOU!

This fundraiser is a way for the fans to "Pre Order" the limited release of the physical album, receiving the tracks before the official release date. Your backing of the this project makes this vinyl printing & Shirt pressing made possible, while also grabbing the goods for yourself. Any Additional funds made will go directly into the the support of new music set to release later this year.

-Release date / details:

The vinyls have been ordered, the songs are completed, a new music video is ready for release &  album release show will be held this night to celebrate the release with a full band performance!

I'm looking to raise $3,000 to help recover debt invested in completing the project and the cost of merch production and album promotion. This will be enough to cover some debt in completing this project, and gives me the opportunity to record and released more music this year after ALL IN has released in July. I'm not looking to ask for more than I need, but all and every bit of your support is helpful.

Anyone looking to support this project socially can do so for free as well. If you'd like to support without receiving physical goods, you can sign up for my $0 tier or reach out to me directly on ways you can make "ALL IN" and what is yet to come -  a success.

Thank you so so much.

Love,

Brooke Surgener
