Modern Shark and Bi-Polar Bear need your help to make the release of “When Ledge Is Home” the smash success that is deserves to be. At this point you may be asking yourself: “Why is a record label asking me for money to fund one of its projects? Isn’t there a room in the Modern Shark mansion where they keep a giant pile of cash? Why can’t they just take some money from The Money Room like they usually do when it’s time to put out a record?”

The answer to your question is twofold. The first part is this: There is no Money Room. We don’t even know how that rumor got started. But for real, Modern Shark is NOT a traditional label. Yes we create, promote, and sell (exceptionally good) music. But we do so collectively, using all sorts of different models. Every “deal” is different, and specifically tailored based on what makes most sense for the collective good of the artists and the label. The second part of the answer is this: Because times have changed. But only slightly…

By asking you to buy a copy of the album, we were in effect going to ask you to invest in this project anyway. The only difference is: Now we’re asking you to show your support up front, which a whole bunch of you have already done! So check out the video, listen to 2 tracks from the album, and if you like what you hear / see, you can secure an advance digital copy (before anyone else gets it!) for only $10. If you donate a little more, you get a signed poster too. A little more, you also get a tee shirt . See how this works? Get in on the ground floor, because this album is a special piece of work, and with a small donation, you can proudly say that you helped to bring it out into the world.
