Thanks for your amazing response... and coming home to Maine

Dear all,

I wanted to give you a report on how amazed I have been with the show of support for raising money for my next release. It has been very gratifying to hear from so many of my long time friends who are excited to invest in this project. I have heard from a number of you that would like to contribute at a lower level than $50 and I am more than happy to have anyone on board as an investor, at any level your support is greatly appreciated.

So I have created another level of investment called "Street Busker". After all, this is where many of the greatest musicians make their start. We would like to invite anyone to contribute $15. We will include you as one of the first to receive the new CD as well as enter you into a drawing to receive the perks of the $250 level. The winner will be randomly drawn at this year's Club Passim New Years Eve show and I'll contact you with the news that night. You can go to this link for The Street Busker Level http://www.cdfreedom.com/ellispaul

Thanks to everyone for the overwhelming response, and desire to be a part of my music. As always, thanks for your great support and inspiration as I travel the highways and back roads of America.

I'm excited to head home to Maine this weekend! Please come on out and hear a bunch of the songs that will be on the new album, look forward to seeing y'all there.
