Welcoming early spring days here in Co. Wexford as we hone and craft new songs for a new TSS celtic ballads project unfolding. There are sneakpeeks on our Patreon for anyone who wants to sign up there and help with all we do. Less than the price of a coffee or what ever you would like to pay, this platform helps us pay the bills when we aren't on the road touring to make ends meet. Someone asked yesterday how we fund raise for the Trade-Off work that we do. The answer is generally, that apart from donations of support, we explain our projects in Thailand and elsewhere when we are in front of people at gigs/on tour, and we put part of the funds we earn aside towards our Trade-Off projects.
What gets challenging is how much one can be touring when writing, recording and being in the creative process, plus how much time we can actually spend in missional work which involves spending not earning. Thus, the advent of platforms like Patreon, and our Modern Day page, offer us more than one stream of income which all help us do what we do. Impossible without the many hands that assist us. It takes a tribe and we are so grateful - for any one who took a chance on us unheard and booked us, or came to a concert, for fans that encourage and support, and for family, friends and neighbours who help and love us in a myriad of ways large and small.
Thank you. We are sending out an email soon that we will share latest exciting news in. Some things are a bit sensitive for social media. Peace out!
