It's been four years since IC VoiceStream has produced an album, but this year, we've been hard at work learning, mastering, and recording ten of our favorite songs for a new album. We want to capture the spirit of our group, a fun, energetic group of singers who see a cappella, and VoiceStream specifically, as an outlet for creative expression. We're primarily non-music majors, but we see VoiceStream as a way for us to continue making music and ensuring that singing remains an important part of our lives. If you're not familiar with ICVS yet, go to our website and check out the latest YouTube videos – they’re from our first concert in October! 

 This CD will feature IC VoiceStream performing some of our most recent and favorite songs, including songs by Guster, Mumford & Sons, Adele, Bob Dylan and Coldplay. We’ve been hard at work on the recording process of the album for the past month, and now we’re nearly finished. 

We’re getting excited to embark on the next steps of the album production process, including editing, mixing, mastering, and printing the physical copies of the CD. In order to successfully meet our goal of having the album completed and finalized by April 2012, we must generate the funds necessary to finance the final steps of this process. We need funding upfront, during the album production process, to pay for the various services necessary to complete the songs on the CD and make them sound as amazing as they can. 

 We would love your help in this process of financing the CD. The easiest way that you can help out is by buying the album now – pre-ordering it so that when it’s released in April, you’ll already have your copy on its way to you in the mail. Pre-order CDs are $15. If you’d prefer to pre-order the CD and make an additional contribution, we welcome your generosity and encourage you to consider donating to the CD production process; any amount at all — even the $15 from the pre-order of the album — will help our group reach its final goal.  

DONATE TO OUR KICKSTARTER HERE. It's an easy and convenient way to donate to ICVS with a debit or credit card!

 Thank you for your generosity and consideration. 

 Love and thanks for ever(long), 

IC VoiceStream
