pacificlectic : concert reviews & eclectic music news

I’m here to promote music.  When that music is also made by friends, it’s even more fun to promote.

When I moved to Eugene, I got involved in a most excellent vegetarian supper club.  The founders, Josh & Sharon Coen, are super great… it’s a really fun group.  Well, when we moved here, we met their (then) 9 year old Savanna.  About two years ago, she started singing and has been gigging more and more in the Eugene area… whether it be Saturday Market, Kidz Rock, Grrrlz Rock, or blues festivals – it’s been great to see Savanna and her talent grow.

Well, now 12 years old, she’s starting a Kickstarter campaign to get her first CD made.  If you’ve never heard about Kickstarter, it’s a great new way to be financially active in an independent venture – music or otherwise.  I’ve done a couple Kickstarters recently (Kevin Moore‘s Shine and GdEB‘s Jazz).  Anyway, it’s a great way for those who want to support art to put their money where their mouth is.

Fan funding is what it’s all about.

So, my question for you… do you want to help this talented 12-year old blues singer from Eugene, Oregon, make her first CD?  Of course you do!  As little as $10 gets you the music. Go to:

If you can help, please do… her goal is to raise $3,000 in 90 days to be able to get this off the ground.
