Be A Part of Sharon Leal Creating Her Debut Album!

You have seen her in 'Why Did I Get Married', 'Woman Thou Art Loosed' & 'DreamGirls'. Now be a part of Sharon Leal's debut album!

From 'Soul Man' opposite Samuel L Jackson and Bernie Mac, 'Hellcats,' 'Boston Public,' to the Golden Globe Award winning film 'DreamGirls,' she has had such great opportunities to share her breathtaking voice.

www.lealkickstarter.com

2013 is going to be a huge year for Sharon as she stars in 4 feature films including 'Addicted' for Lionsgate Films.

And so here, in Sharon's own words from her Kickstarter page, is exactly what she lovingly needs from you:

"Hi Everyone! It's Sharon Leal. Thank you for checking out my page. This is my first big Studio album undertaking. I Have been signed to labels in the past but It didn't work out due to creative differences."

"Now I am here on Kickstarter and able to do everything my way and create great music for you. I have been writing these songs for years and I am glad that Paul talked me into doing a kickstarter - so here I am!!!!! Please watch the video above where you can listen to some music teasers and hear what I am about. Thank you so very much."

"If you decide to come along for the ride, please remember to tweet and Facebook it to let your friends know. You are all appreciated."

(From Paul Becker, world class choreographer AND Sharon's boyfriend!): "One day I came across a bunch of recordings. I started to listen and it was her singing songs that she had written over the years. They were amazing!! I said to her "I am going to start a Kickstarter campaign for you because these are hits and the world needs to hear these songs". It just amazed me that she has been writing music her whole life but never released an album."

"Life is too short and NOW it is time to help her show the world her music. But a good album ain’t cheap. She has already teamed up with some heavy hitters in the music industry and begun recording. We are asking you to come aboard with completing the album and everything that comes with that."

Where does all my cash go?

•LEGAL FEES
•MARKETING
•ART WORK
•HIRING ADDITIONAL MUSICIANS
•MIXING AND MASTERING

What if we exceed our goal?

If by chance we exceed our goal, don't worry, we will definitely put your money to good use. There is a much bigger picture than just this album. Any additional money will go towards:

•MUSIC VIDEOS
•MARKETING & PR (YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH)
•TOURING
•ADDITIONAL ALBUMS

To thank you so very much, you’ll see tons of rewards in the adjacent photo, bonus tracks, merchandise, and other random stuff that you’ll be able to point to and tell your friends “I helped make this amazing album possible”.

Why Kickstarter?

The recording industry has changed dramatically. The usual sources of financing, such as record labels, don’t exist in the same way anymore. Kickstarter offers the unique opportunity for friends, family and fans to be involved in this exciting creative process. You being a part of this really means a lot to us.

Risks and challenges?

Being an independent musician doesn't make creating an album more risky than being signed to a label. In fact, it makes creating an album less risky! By making this album without label support, there's no chance that a clash of opinions will delay the album and no risk of the album being put aside because of changing market conditions.

Perhaps the biggest problem most independent musicians face when creating an album is simply getting it produced. Once you've perfected your lyrics and poured your heart out in dozens of notebooks, finding a great producer to help you put it all together can be difficult! Thankfully, that's not a problem for this project.

YOU CAN HELP! Tell your friends, post the link: www.lealkickstarter.com on your facebook page, or tweet about it!
