House Concerts: Ryan Innes

by Justin on October 17, 2011

Well, we have to thank you folks for helping us reach/exceed our Kickstarter page goal of 5k in just three days.

(Our goal was to reach it in sixty days, but three is awesome!)

So now we’re forced to believe you’d like to see a Rooftop Concert Series 2012.

Yes?

Good. Us too.

So here’s the deal. We’re just going to keep on keeping on. Our Kickstarter page is going to be up for awhile (December 11th) and 5k is actually only a tiny slice of our series budget, so how about we talk you into some ideas? Ideas that will please and delight, entertain and excite and go to toward our cause.

Sound good?

Alright.

Did you come to our June show? That absolutely cute show with Meaghan Smith and Mindy Gledhill. Wasn’t it quirky and fun? The warm up position? Remember that guy? He sang and melted your heart? That was Ryan Innes. He was so popular that night, we invited him back to sing with The Abbey Road Show. And when he got up to sing “Oh Darling” the crowd had went NUTS.

Proof (first 2:00):

The dude has pipes that melts hearts.

After his Rooftop appearances we were fielding “WHO IS THIS GUY?” questions from our facebook page to our emails. Even my own mother-in-law bought all the Ryan Innes offerings she could find. This is to say: Ryan Innes is a force.

And for just $350 he can come to your house, your party, your private concert event and sing his heart out for you. Or, you could go in with your girlfriends and have him come sing at your soon-to-be-wed friend’s bachelorette party, or GIRLS NIGHT OUT EVENT or heavens, just for you because you deserve someone to sing to you like only Ryan Innes can sing.

Imagine it feeling something like this:

You love it.

So here is what you do:

Go to our Kickstarter page.

Pledge $350

In the incentives box, check that you’d like the Ryan Innes house concert.

Finish the transaction.

Start party planning!

Please note: There is only ONE Ryan Innes house concert available. First come, first served. And I DO mean served, as in “this will be a generous serving of cool” kind of served. Also, house concerts typically run around $500 for artists like Ryan Innes. So this is amazing and 30% off.

Please hurry. We hear our own Mindy Gledhill wants this concert for herself.

 

Love,

C. Jane

Dear Rooftop Series Community,

Here it is, the final week of our concert series! We’ll celebrate a phenomenal season with our last concert, the Lower Lights on October 7. Thanks to you, this season has been a wild success with perfect weather, exciting performers and a thrilling downtown atmosphere.

Of course, we hope to be able to pick back up with the concert series next summer with a full new 2012 line up. In order to put on these concerts and make them completely free to the community we’ve relied on generous sponsors.

Now we’re asking our community to support the concert series by making a donation to ensure our ability to rock the rooftop again next year. If you’ve enjoyed the event with your family, friends, dates, or maybe even by yourself, we ask you to consider making a contribution to our cause! If you’ve learned of new music, new artists, new talent and this has enriched your life, please donate! If you love downtown Provo and want to see it grow in community and culture, make a contribution so we can continue!

How to make a contribution? First of all, we will be taking donations at the concert on October 7. Come prepared to drop a few bucks (or more!) in our collection boxes. Secondly, if you can’t make it to the concert we will have a Kickstarter Fund up on this website in the next couple days where you can go to easily make a pledge to the 2012 Rooftop Concert Series project.
Thanks again for supporting us this year, we look forward to meeting up at the rooftops in the year to come!

RCS executive committee,
Mindy Gledhill, Justin Hackworth, C. Jane Kendrick and Sarah Wiley

C. Jane presents another fantastic Rooftop Concert, sponsored by Sweet Tooth Fairy, ModBod, and 3B Yoga. The Abbey Road Show is, on the surface, a simple concept– take The Beatles’ classic album Abbey Road and recreate it live. But it isn’t that simple. See, The Beatles had the luxury of never actually having to perform [...]
