Comprised of Leanor Ortega Till, guitarist Scott Kerr, drummer Andy Verdecchio and producer Matt Langston, The Fast Feeling is the new combined effort of members from Five Iron Frenzy and Eleventyseven. What began as an experiment with new material last year soon grew into what is now The Fast Feeling, mixing elements of rock, pop and EDM into a fresh sound while still keeping some of the same style the fans have come to know and appreciate from the bands in the past.
As starting a new band and making a record is an expensive journey, The Fast Feeling has launched an Indiegogo campaign to handle the upfront costs of their debut album such as recording, mixing, mastering, and manufacturing merchandise. "In the days of old, we would get a loan from our rich uncle (i.e. record label) to cover this, but we have become more DIY as veteran musicians, and have funded ourselves as much as our budgets, and spouses, will allow," the crew wrote on their Indiegogo page. "We've concocted lots of ways for you to get involved. It could be as simple as helping us spread the word, or pre-ordering your very own shirt or CD. If you really want to go all out you can spring for one of our top tier offerings. Each of these items is guaranteed to please even the most discriminating of crowd funders. Come hang out at a recording session, or have dinner with us, get a mix tape or a one on one music lesson," they continued.
"We will be sharing our progress in real time with all our backers. You'll get to hear songs as they're finished and receive exclusive content like demos and alternate mixes. We are forever grateful," the band concluded. Their debut single "Break" is available now at
Bandcamp and
Soundcloud.
